Borgi was out of the same feeder race..." race was not run to suit as gelding was caught three wide in early stages and lost his early position" Made a note of it this morning, didn't notice it was running here until close to the race. Then decided 10s or so wasn't big enough. But look back to...

Everest finished just in front for the same stable, had ruled that one out because he started off in a bumper and figured might be better off at further. Have to admit, was a little worried that was a 'big' mistake about a furlong out. Jack Andrea did look good on that Southwell 11f run two...

Portoro is almost always a rear runner, isn't he. Can't get the sectionals, but seemed like it was fast-enough run to me. On the face of it, appears Portoro ran his usual race but couldn't keep up after a furlong - you could see he seemed struggling to go the pace, and had to exert too much...

The staff thing is/should be fixed now

No idea where that came from. Seemed to start when the blog went live. But quite like it, though. Understated, but with a hint of some level of acceptance/semi-importance. I feel good about it, man. Easily pleased!

It’s probably just a switch Bryan missed throwing when he created Dave’s blog. No big deal, I’ll mail him and no doubt he’ll fix it

I think anyone who has a blog shows as that...because they get some rights to manage their blog

I knew that was 1.01 when typing :) Will just have to send you some M'Hancha. Or maybe just a photo!

Billed as an unprecedented, premium-level experience, 21st-century party-time extravaganza, unlikely ever to be repeated. But perhaps more aptly described as... A potentially mildly entertaining congregation of (likely) aging punters and horse racing fans, talking horses (and maybe other...

We will try and save you, Lucky. Someone will name a winner!

Judging by the fine appearance of that gentleman on what looks remarkably like a Spanish holiday balcony, you're a long way off needing it, DO. Sadly, some of the rest of us might already have one foot in the proverbial. But that'll be fixed with a few winners over the 4 days!

All Weather Len!

Pawras data on fire! Met BJ, an honour! Shame Libberty couldn't get up for 2nd from something like 20 lengths last two out. But you can't have everything. Till the next one!

Off to Newbury today, so writing here will be on the sparse side. Can't type on a mobile, so not much to come later. Sadly, with Live Conti not in the big race at Newbury, the afternoon has lost some of its lustre. The adrenaline would have been off the charts. But, Poet Laureate has stepped...

Well done, All Weather Dave strikes again!!

7.30 Newcastle It's possible that this reasonably valuable race has been Rajapour's target for some time. I think Rajapour has it in him to carry plenty of these. Sadly, we don't (yet) know whether David O'Meara wants to win it or not. On the face of it, It seems odd that David Nolan doesn't...

Neat and Tidy couldn't finish it off, though. My, those fvckers at Hills and BF Sportsbook would have had a severe case of watering eyes. Would have likely got banned, though. Another day :-)

And Galette gets 3rd. 24 three places, 9.8 for four. Fillais des bootes, as they say in some areas of France. The 100+ win would have been nice, though, and that's wrecked it!

Didn't look deeper enough earlier, and there are two Jon Portman 50-1 shots at Wolves that might be worth a speculative EW double - Galette and Neat & Tidy. First one is at 2.32. Galette's done nothing in plenty of races, but there just has to be something in there. Can Mr Portman find it...

Chris Gordon certainly knew what he was doing with Aucanrisque. I believe he thinks Poet Laureate would be up to it, but suspect he didn't think he'd make the cut this year. Now he has, seems certain to line up (assuming ground deemed suitable). The Wincanton race suggests ground shouldn't be a...
