Long House Hall

Watching his stablemate Oldgrangewood win a decent handicap at Newbury today prompted me to think of this classy horse.

He needs good ground, so probably wont be effective till the spring. But do think he will win a decent chase this season for Dan Skelton

I’ve been a huge fan of this horse since he won at Market Rasen in April 2015

We haven’t seen him since he hacked up in last year’s Summer Plate at the same venue and I’d have some doubts that he’ll retain that ability as a near 10yo

I think he’ll struggle on the ground tomorrow

Nature Strip Flemington on the 20th......$250k prize so should get a better price than yesterday.....1.6 won like a 1/20 shot

I'll be getting my Chelters money off him all being well
 
Best price I got was 1.72 but with some horses price just doesn't matter you just know.

Always in control never looked like getting beat..Roll on Chelters

Looks a fair chance will make his reappearance in the Sky Bet Chase on Saturday.

Still soft ground there, but could dry out. Been a market mover today which is interesting, currently 10-1.
 
He's not really a market mover, Pb.

His lower price merely reflects the adjustments to the market required by the withdrawals of several around the 10/1 mark.
 
What a cracking run, just getting mugged for the place money.

Lovely trial for the spring festivals
 
Couple of Flat horses to follow this season

Both Godolphin owned and trained by Charlie Appleby

Brundtland

Key Victory

Both won Newmarket maidens on the same card last October. Key has always been considered a class act, but Brundtland has really wintered well I am reliably informed.
 
Adding a newcomer....

Surya

Frankel colt out of Sariska trained by John Gosden, heard nice vibes from decent sources
 
Debuts tomorrow at Newmarket in the Wood Ditton [2.25]

Opening show of 6-1 with Paddy Power who are paying 4 places, so in what looks a decent race should reward each way support
 
Well that was nothing to get excited about, only 11th!

Not knocked about though by Dettori, and will improve for the run and a step up in distance
 
Raa Atol is one to note after his debut yesterday. Wasn’t touched at any point but was gagging to get going. He may well be pattern class imo

Job was done back in January he's back today after a rest in prep for a biggie........oozes class 4/5 but will win
 
Sea Of Class

Though she was beaten on debut in a race which so far is not working out,do think this is a horse with a very nice future and is in very good hands to achieve that being trained by William Haggas
 
Two horses that have caught my eye this season -Elysees Palace trained by Mark Prescott went to Dundalk to win a maiden and then won a handicap at Newcastle staying on late and grinding it out -I could see him being a massive improver -possibly having a crack at one of the really big staying handicaps.
Georgian Manor trained by Stoute ran away with a maiden at Beverley today -I'm guessing Royal Ascot could be next.
 
Sun Maiden. A daughter of Frankel (and is a half sister to Midday) won at Salisbury today by 12 lengths. She may have beaten nothing but she looks to have a bit of star quality about her. And she has entries in both the Oaks and Ribblesdale.
