Agree with comments about Haalick being an unlucky loser, but that is part and parcel of Flat racing. He was ridden just the same in the Spring Cup and got all the gaps going as plenty of others got stopped in their tracks there. Agree with EC about Race Day - strange decision to fire him up...

Some top work here EC. Well done.

It's my intention to be about a bit more again. Looking forward to season ahead. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Twitter mainly!!

Looks a good card this, and reckon a couple of the races give us a chance to have a couple of bets. Starting with the Mile. Mindurownbusiness looks on the short side at 9/4. Obviously going the right way, but it his handicap winning form really much stronger than that put up by Mister...

20/1 on Restorer looks a rick by Corals to me EW. This could cut up quite badly if O'Brien takes a few of his out, and ground could be testing which might put off a few more. Restorer shows plenty of knee action and will be suited by any further easing of the ground. He's been supplemented for...

You're right actually. Amlin would be a very good prep for KG.

True. What I mean is, that race is going to have to come under consideration because it's as good an opportunity as any that he'll get.

Simonsig possibly not that easy to place before the King George? Can't go for a Graduation as he has won 3 chases, and won't be qualified for the intermediate chase at Sandown that Henderson loves to run one in. Paddy Power has to come into the equation? Needs to be going close to winning that...

I wanted 100s, but didn't want to leave it up, so just had 3 times as much on.

It might be setting fire to it. But I have had to nibble at Simonsig at 30s for the Gold Cup. One of the few at a big price that could go off favourite.

Amazing that people are trying to pigeon-hole Taghrooda as needing certain conditions. She's had just the 3 races to date and impressed in each of them. I love her, have done since her debut, but even her biggest fans can't fancy her at 5/2.

Apologies, was supposed to be a bit of fun!

Don't know what you've got until it's gone! Any chance Desert Orchid could post up the winners he backed in the period it was down please?

What kind of rating do you think Taghrooda might have achieved by now with a campaign similar to Volume? No doubting that the form of the Pretty Polly is gash, but Taghrooda has looked an Oaks filly all along. Think 4/1 is pretty fair at present.

Still can't have it that the Coventry didn't work out. With a wide-margin winner of the Coventry, it means that the horses that finished second, third and fourth didn't run to the kind of figures that horses that fill the frame in the Coventry typically do. Therefore it is unrealistic to expect...

Really don't believe that's necessarily the case. Not only was an extra £1m put into the game to fund this meeting, but a similar amount has been invested throughout the season. As ever, the most vociferous complainers about AW racing, are those with little interest/understanding of it...

My view on MTOY hasn't really changed. Think connections lack of faith in his finishing effort has cost them that race.

Rewatching the Christmas Hurdle, I've formed a slightly different view to the majority. I really hope this doesn't turn into a sprint, as I think that will suit The New One more than My Tent Or Yours. Yes, The New One will come off the bridle first, but I think he possesses the greater...

Firstly, I have to confess I haven't got Admin permission for this, so if deemed unsuitable, by all means, do delete it. Presuming it's okay.... There's an offer on at present at www.timeform.com where members signing up to a new account, if they deposit £10 they get £10 of credit matched for...
