The wait goes on. Snipe jumped and travelled well, but didn't pick up on the long run-in with the final two fences omitted. Softer ground may help. Famous Bridge was a non-runner ( unsuitable going ).

It would spoil my day if Snipe - 3:55 Kelso - won today and I didn't have a small bet on him. He's 13/2, and is running over a much more suitable trip than when he stayed on into fourth over two and a half miles at Worcester in September. Famous Bridge ( 5/1) is another of my favourites and he...

Chris Honour was Hillsin's trainer for the race at Worcester which prompted the BHA hearing a few weeks ago. Alan Jones is the current trainer - he's won races with Hillsin previously - but owner Mr Clegg moves his horses around at a rate unrivalled only by Kia Joorabchian.

5:25 Gowran Park - 12 furlong handicap on heavy ground. Paradise Lost (12/1) - Charles O'Brien. 2nd of 13 on soft in this race last year, and 5th of 16 on heavy the year before. Trainer could do with a winner ( 41 runs and 205 days since the last one ).

Her real name is Olivia. She may be a distant relative of the late Sir Arthur Streeb-Greebling, and could find work in a few years' time on one of the racing channels.

Jack Tudor is already provisionally booked to ride Lock Out in the 4:15 race at Fontwell next Thursday( the23rd ) which is another three and a quarter mile handicap chase. If he wins today the freshness aspect won't apply for that race, but I think that wins in conditional jockeys' races do not...

The group called Eclection were similarly short-lived and recorded one eponymous album in 1968. The line-up shown here ( from left ) is Georg Hultgreen, Gerry Conway, Kerrilee Male, Trevor Lucas, and Michael Rosen ( a Canadian ). Hultgreen later adopted the name Georg Kajanus and achieved some...

Crookbarrow is down to run again - 2 pounds out of the handicap - in tomorrow's 4:58 two and a half miles conditional jockeys' handicap hurdle at Worcester. His two runs for the Greenall and Guerriero team have been 7/10 at Bangor ( though not beaten very far ), and a 10/10 effort at Market...

Monday 13th: the 1:52 race at Musselburgh is the nine-runner Ray Hawthorne Memorial Amateur Jockeys' Handicap over nine furlongs. Mr Cagney rides Triple Force ( 11/8 ) for Craig Lidster.

He learnt so much when he was assistant trainer to Paul Nicholls.

I shall go for these three. Hipop De Loire (11/1) Belgravian (10/1) Caprelo (28/1) And I really don't want either of Reverend Hubert or Alphonse Le Grande to win, but I'll probably still have a small win bet on ALG and a reverse forecast on the two of them.

Jorah ( 11/1 ) looks like an improver for the Skeltons stepped up in trip. Trainer says he is favourably handicapped [ off 101 ] , but lacks experience for a race like this.

The 4:55 at Chepstow this afternoon is the David Pipe Racing Handicap Hurdle over two and a half miles with seventeen runners. Mr Pipe runs two in it, and I would hope that the race title might encourage at least one good run between them. The two are Activist (14/1) - off since March, but two...

I'm fairly sure that the Silver Trophy Handicap Hurdle on tomorrow's card used to be held in early November, and Jenny Pitman had quite a few winners in the race. Dan Skelton runs five in it this year which isn't ideal for anyone trying to find the winner though Joyeux Machin is one I am...

https://maps.turftrax.co.uk/iframe/api_showgoing.asp?mapid=312633 Any rain will be minimal, but the clerk of the course may feel the need to get the watering gear out to prevent the ground getting too firm - in his view. It'll be edging towards good to firm by the weekend.

The Bet365 antepost list for the Cesarewitch shows just 25 five-day declarations, and Novelista, Pendragon and Zanndabad are all missing.

He rides First Greyed for Thomas Faulkner.

Monday's 4:55 at Wolverhampton is the next scheduled amateur jockeys' race and unfortunately Mr Cagney is not yet one of the intended riders.
