Gigilo - you've probably been asked this before, but is there any chance you could give the race when you give the selections? Trying to follow these on an iPhone at work and it's tricky trawling through the cards to find out which race they're running in.
Keep up the good work! I don't manage to back them all, never have time to trade, and almost always miss the prices, but the thread is a great source of winners nevertheless!

Just an interest for the day hopefully all get in the frame.Nabucco looks the best bet although i wouldv'e preferred the ground to be very soft as his first two runs.His debut run behind bishop rocco looks decent,stopped in run shouldv'e been second the time was 2m11.88 a second and a haslf quicker than the handicap won by expense claim winning off 87 and the maiden won by valiant won again since.He then ran at sandown on similar ground,that maiden also looks extremely good over 2 seconds quicker than the older handicap won by choral festival rated 68 and carrying 8 pound more.Cathedral was 5 1/2ls back in 6th and even that run looks the equivalent of mid 80s with older horses.Nabucco would be very unlucky to find something to beat it in here i would expect it to go off 1/2 in this race minimum and if it has dried out a little the main danger could be the one he beat at sandown.

Honeymeads form speaks for itself has been very consistent in arguabely better races second to powerful presence beaten 1 1/2ls conceding 4pound powerful presence has since won off 87,tomorrow shane b kelly gets to take 5 pound off taking her down to last seasons marks of 83.She ran second to dubai dynamo off 88 conceding 2 pound and her last run in a hot handicap at donny finishing 4th again looking a better race than tomorrows.The race probably revolves around the 3yr odls as she should beat the older horses, if there's lots of rain then the favourite maybe a drifter said not to like soft ground on last two runs.The 5/1 looks a decent price and would look even better with some more weather if it arrives i can see her going off fav!!

No real interest for me at ascot betting wise with draw and ground farces but will have a little ew on satsuma,as the 2yr olds this year look poor compared to recent seasons.Very little to look at on the clock in these races,she made her debut at catterick,jock looking round a furlong out and the time compared favourably to the older handicap won by nomoreblondes(73) slightly slower by .07.Lots of 80 runners in behind in the older handicap,she looked good for half a dozen lengths improvement,she then took the same path as frederick engels at musselburugh running in the corresponding race at musselburugh.Will forgive her that run on softer ground and the winner ahern looks in with a chance on friday,she's 20/1 365 four places 22/1 sjames.
Normally that run of hers at catterick i'd be looking at a listed race but these races look so weak i'll have a little bet,still be very surprised if she won as this would be a very weak result.But i like the trainer with sprinters he is a shrewdie,even if he seems a bit of a bumpkin.

1pt trade brigadoon 14/1 365 will back again if bigger.
Taken 16/1 hills
He may not have the equal of some of the turf form of these brigadoon,but lots of runners in this race have ? to answer.The race looks wide open probably discount the bottom three in the handicap and that leaves brigadoo as the biggest priced,working through the runners john biscuit ? over trip,mc birney surface and jock with first ride,cala santanyi looks ok won a slow race at lingfield up in the weights.Sakhees pearl has all the c/d form on offer and quickest time the most obvious pick in the race,antarctic disappointe here on surface,scottish star looks improver but has to show it over distance on the surface.Laughing jack has run allright over c/d but in slowish time and compared to brigaddon the latter looks the vaue.
The race looks wide open as there are bound to be improvers but sand skier backed into 9/1 five points bigger than brigadoon is badly in with brigadoon having a 12pound pull for a nk defeat at lingfield and also that would tie in with sakhees secret that horse having an 10 pound pull for simialr distance with sand skier.Brigadoon ran a decent time over 1m3fs here in 2m18.69 pretty quick.Charles bishop takes the ride,two winners lately and i think will be backed on his two bits of form at lingfield and here especially being so well in with sand skier and decent jock riding.He maybe bigger in the morning so i will back again.Hopefully a nice trade in an open race.

Bad placing by trainer running lindoro over a mile.always looked a 7f horse on gd/sft ground and since going to ellison has had a resurgence in form has far and away the best form in the race on recent form.Won at musselburugh off 60 tomorrow off 67 but the run at musselburugh still makes him look well handicapped.Winning by 4ls and clocking up a time only .50 slower than powerful presence off 81 that winner carrying a pound less than lindoro and powerful presence has won again since off 87 capaill laith and imperial djay in behind, the time of that musselburugh run looks rock solid.Ellison has best trip entered and at this moment has no soft ground form and never won over the trip and lindoro beat him last time,mchugh rides best trip which is slightly off putting but will stick to the trade.Can't really see why this shouldn't be heavily backed on last three runs all rock solid form and as mentioned over a distance that stretches his stamina.I thought this would open up 2/1 as its very hard to make a case for many in the race on proven ground,as ever with this mob the betting will tell you!!

Ahern clocked up a decent time at musselburugh .56 quicker than 96 rated bajan tryst,those times couldv'e been questionable at the time as the maiden was .27 slower than the later handicap won by bosun breeze.Infact the opposite has happened bosun breeze has won again off 81 and the second rasaman beaten 6ls by bosun breese has won off 77 as well winning a decent handicap at donny.The negative could be the drying ground for ahern but rain is expected and if it arrives i can see ahern and cay verde dominating the betting,cay verde has the best form beating hototo and dylanburu 1st and third in the windsor castle although looked a very weak race cay verde looked far superior to these.They look the two to focus on providing the ground doesn't stay to quick!!
