Nemean Lion smashed up for the Kingwell, 13/8 from 7/2

It was 9/4 tops yesterday so must have drifted in between. Maybe the word is out that CM is only there for a prep ahead of Cheltenham. NL appeared to improve for stepping up in trip in the Lanzarote so I'm surprised they're bringing it back by nearly 3/4 mile.

If you have a few bob about you and don't mind laying it out for around 1 minute head to Flemington tomorrow for the Black Cavalier Group 1 Lightning .Being hailed as the fastest sprinter in the world Imperatriz takes on a field of 9 of the best Australia has to offer. I got on earlier this week through my Australian friends at evens and she's now around 1.7 in Aus BUT I notice evens was available on the Betfair exchange as there are always some mad layers who will net on anything..if she is 100% she will win simple as https://youtu.be/HiL44Ez3gYQ?si=k_W1Z5-BCiND_O37

Connections were a bit concerned she wasn't at her best but it never stopped the punters from getting weighed in at 1.7 and 1.6.

I got on again at 1.99 Betfair she was returned by them at 1.8.

Never looked like getting beat and she'll be even better next time:D

I’m off to Wincanton today for my first visit since Aklderbrook won the Kingwell en route to the CH. Obviously nothing of that quality on show today and I’ll be backing Guard Your Dreams in the feature (currently 12/1). He won on his only try on heavy and was fully entitled to need the run at Cheltenham after 20 months off

On my radar for either the County or the Coral Cup.

Irish Hill
Punta Del Este
Victtorino
Iron Bridge

Various combinations to varying stakes.

Not a lot of market strength behind these, Victtorino possibly the exception, so it could end up quite an expensive day.

Punta Del Este out to 10/1 and friendless, from 5/1 yesterday. What the hell, I still fancy it so I've gone in again since I didn't get the BOG.

I was never happy with the ride CM was getting,especially after the third last when Jacob took it back three lengths for no good reason. I'm not convinced the horse was there to win.
 
Had a great day with both selection Pic Dohry and Imperatriz winning:D

Last bet of the day for me to get stuck into:

Zonda
Shuil Ceoil

Dutched @10/11
 
Bit late this one, but UnitSixtyFour (Lingfield 14:15) gets his ground, has won a couple of chases, trainer is bang in form, and goes in first-time CP’s. 11/2 good enough for me in a weak event with an odds-on jolly going first time over fences under Rules.
 
Hurricane Highway re-opposing Top of the Bill at Exeter tomorrow. He was thumped last time but the ground will be much softer now and the Twister carries a welter burden and HH is eight pound better off. Worth a go at 3+
