Windsor 6.30
Whelans way 12/1 hills Iconic knight 14/1 hills 10/1 365
A bit disapponting to see the ground drying out as last night was raining at windsor,i presumed it would be soft ground currently says gd/sft gd in places,so likely to be good by the off, the angle was softer ground with these two but as long as it's not quick then they still could run well.
Whelans way has hardly run a poor race,kicked last season off with a win with a piece of form that looks hugely eyecatching beating Aplomb,Tinto,Sir Busker and Motagally all those have progressed and two of them have won already this season..Aplomb rated 95 now,Tinto 105,Sir Busker won off 96 at ascot this week and Motagally rated 90 touched off this season at newmarket..Whelans way going onto be 2/3/2/3/4 not really improving on debut win but running consistently..The penultimate race was 3rd at ascot just behind Iconic knight a nk seperating them,off same weights tomorrow.Finished the season with a sixth,then made an appearence at chelmsford ran ok for debut run back midfield,returns to the turf on 77 claimer takes off three pound so only higher than the win at ascot..If at best great ew chances..in slighty weaker race than normaly runs in.
Similarly the more exposed Iconic knight,the run with whelans way nothing between them,hasn't won since september 18th 2018,highlights last season a 3rd in a 0-85,2nd in a 0-80,2nd over tomorrows c/d in a 0-80 a few poorer runs with excuses since..Tomorrow drops into a 0-77 runs off
74 lowest mark since july 2018 appears to go on most ground..another obvious ew chance if near to those runs.

Thirsk 12.15
Alghada 6/4 365
This could be a red hot maiden,maybe one of the best ever run at the track if price purchases are anything to go by,hala hala hala 50,000 guineas
miss nay never £140,000 the favourite alghada was the rag at leicester on debut finished third,time of the race seemed pretty respectable and the horse that finished behind it ran behind albany 7th..I doubt this will be as good as purchases in this race and probably will drift as there could be group horses in here,but will do it with decent draw and experience,definitely a race to look at closely for notebook.

Kylies rules 12/1 365/ppower/sportsbook 11/1 skybet
Similar to windsor,the meeting looked like being soft ground but it looks like it's going to be nearer good ground,if it's not too quick then kylies rules could run ok,bit of a beverley specialist on slower going she won four on the bounce last season and her last win was over this c/d off 81 in a 0-90..Struggled a little after that but ran a great race at ayr in a 0-105 third beaten only 3/4l on good ground,reappearence run at beverley on the 11th of june,respectable fourth in a 0-85 not getting a clear run..The negative seems to be trainer form ruth carr yet to have a winner from 20 runners not only that but not one even to place,she's worth a small bet in a 0-83 where there's not loads of track form..
Ayr 4.15
Queens gift 9/4 365/skybet
As per the opposite weathers happening in Ayr the going was gd/fm this morning but its raining,if the ground changes then queens gift would be a no no,no form on any slower ground and not just that the whole race would look a pin job as the two favs have very little softer ground form..So as of now am baseing ths race on the fact the ground stays on fast side,if it does then looks a two horse race,queens gift improver last season second in beverley bullet,then runner up to equilateral rated 111 runner up to bataaash this week..This years reappearence fifth in a group three at newmarket,as long as ground stays quick will be in the first two,although if ground changes the race could throw up a strange result.
