This is off the Bet365 ante-post listing for Saturday's race, and the field has been whittled down to just 22 at the five-day entry stage. I expect the Racing Post website will be updated very shortly. The maximum field size is 20, and the ground is currently soft ( good to soft in places ). In...

She would be delighted if her horses showed the tactical speed of the winner of this one at Cheltenham in 1988. At the moment most are stopping some way from the finish. I found this race, wanted to know a bit more about the winning trainer, and you must have put this up as it's linked to...

Jungle Boogie's entered for the Rowland Meyrick at Wetherby. Kara Sacre - Irish point winner with quite good form in maiden hurdles for Paul Nolan - is in the twilight handicap hurdle at Kempton in familiar pink and green spotted colours. The day you give up on her runners will be the one she...

The plan to wait very patiently for a race on a right-handed course needs revision.

No Ordinary Joe - 12:55 Haydock ( 0-130) , 9 runners, 14/1. Ex JP McManus/ Nicky Henderson so the connection between AP and the trainer is interesting.

Hill Of Tara's run yesterday at Uttoxeter - pulled-up in conditions where the stable usually excels - doesn't fill me with confidence for today, but I really like the first two in your list running at Ascot. Flowing Cadenza won the corresponding mares' race at Hereford three years ago, but has...

There's a nice 3m handicap chase at Sandown on Scilly Isles day in early February which O'Connell won this year. Soft to heavy ground and the uphill finish would suit Hunter Legend, and the six week gap between races would be about right too. ( I thought the fences at Ludlow were supposed to...

The Welsh National trip would be more suitable for My Silver Lining, but she is unlikely to get in off 120 or be some way out of the handicap if Haiti Couleurs or Mr Vango run. The current going at Haydock is soft ( heavy in places ) and there is rain forecast for Wednesday, Thursday and...

Entered for Saturday's 2m 3f handicap chase at Ascot. 11 entries and £18,000 first prize.

The Famous Five was entered for two races at Newbury this Wednesday ( two, and two and a half miles handicap chases ), and has been declared for neither of them. There's nothing else before Saturday at least. Chepstow usually have a two and a half miler on Welsh National day. Jungle Boogie...

She's based at AP's pre-training yard in Lambourn, and she credited him with help with placing some of her horses back in the summer. He's racing manager for JP as well ( I think ) so it was probably for the best that it wasn't Jagwar which was a close second. I don't think anyone on the Forum...

Ostrava Du Berlais was cut from 20s to 18/1 in the 1:15 at Cheltenham before I could press the button. I was thinking, going down the hill, that Zertakt was getting a L'Homme Presse sort of ride.

The official reason for Ga Law not running today is the going which is good to soft. Most of his racing has been done on good to soft ground, and it was good - and probably edging towards good to firm - at Wetherby in the Charlie Hall Chase last month. Definitely a bit odd.

It'll probably be a return visit at the end of January for the Cotswold Chase again. ( Grey Dawning could run in that unless the ground is heavy.) I heard Warren Greatrex say some time ago that the main target for Herakles Westwood in the first half of the season was the Welsh National. He could...

I drink only Buxton sparkling water. Never been keen on tea or coffee, used to like wine and gave that up over twenty years ago, and my dentist advised me to stop all the sugary drinks.

Teddington Lock - 5-y-o mare, trained by Sara Bradstock for the Luck family. Four runs in Irish mares' maiden points, followed by a win at Fontwell in September in a mares' bumper over nearly 18 furlongs, and a third of eight ( 9/4f) - beaten around seven lengths - in a two mile mares' novice...

I paid £325 with AA Insurance at the last renewal. I'm not driving more than 1,500 miles a year, and a few years ago I tried to knock a few pounds off the bill as the annual mileage figure quoted in the documentation was around 4,000. That didn't work as I was told it would be difficult to get...
