    What are you backing Today?

    12.45 Unex Michelangelo 9/2. Record in Class 6 handicaps is 2-1-2. Last ran in a Class 6, when 2nd to Quintet off the same mark as he runs off today (65). Quintet now rated 70. Peter's Friend was 3rd that day, and won off 66 last week (beating a 70 rated horse). The 5th horse that day (Maakirr)...

    The 2014 World Hurdle

    i can't believe the tosh Stewart & Nicholls are spouting. Nicholls is a businessman first, and a trainer second. B*llocks. Jacob doesnt want the ride on Big Bucks because its the last remnant of the era of Kauto Star & Denman, and he wants to be part of the future. Yet he will probably ride...

    Tolworth Hurdle

    Dan Downie, racing manager for Axom, said: "We are going to run in the Betfair Hurdle instead. He is in good form and it gives us a better run up with Cheltenham in mind. "If we ran him on Saturday we would have to let him down before building him up again. We think he can be competitive off his...

    The 2014 World Hurdle

    I'm on Rule The World at 40-1, hoping for a good run in Galmoy at Gowran in a few weeks time.

    Kempton

    Could be something or nothing, but the two previous winners of the JLT Handicap Chase at the Festival (Golden Chieftain & Alfie Sherrin) ran on this card, GC in the 3m Handicap & AS in the 2m4f Handicap, both finishing unplaced before going onto Festival glory.

    2.00 Lingfield Maria's Choice each way @ 18-1 BetVictor A good second to Scottish Glen here in November, and then went on to win two weeks later at Kempton. Clearly didnt handle the track at Southwell last time out, i thik he is incorrectly priced based on that run. Scottish Glen has since gone...

    Road to the RYANAIR CHASE

    Benefficient for me. Reasons for Benefficient running in the Ryanair as opposed to the Queen Mother or the Gold Cup. Gold Cup: there are some question marks over his stamina for 3m. Ok, he won a PtP over 3m, and was 2nd round Newbury over 3m to Harry Topper in a novice chase, but staying 3m+...

    Champion Hurdle 2014

    After his run at Cheltenham a scan revealed fractured pelvis. McCain also confirmed that he has had a few other niggly problems which have now been addressed. Off 149, would be interesting in something like the county hurdle.

    Novice chasers 2013/14

    Talbot Lad I'm looking forward to seeing, should be bang on here after seasonal debut. Starkie in the beginners at Limerick I'm backing too, with the ground to suit.

    What are you backing Today?

    3.35 Southwell - Staff Sergeant Won & placed here on his only two runs at the track, sent off favourite last time the trainer commented after that he needed the run. Down 3lbs in the handicap, and claimer taking off a further 7lb is very attractively weighted here. Won off 70 earlier this season...

    Marriage

    Unfortunately, they don't go without incident, and you always manage to upset some family member. For me, it just emphasised a lesson of life, you cant please all of the people all of the time. We had 65 guests at ours, Church Wedding & Reception at local independant hotel. The cost was £8k...

    handicap plots 13/14

    Entered in the Ladbroke, would be sure to get a run off his rating. If the ground is good then the 25-1 on offer with the race sponsor looks a steal.
