    7.25 Windsor- Johnny Barnes- 10/1 ew

    A very weak listed race imo Mr Lupton is well worth taking on never winning a race outside of handicap, Raucous has some decent form being placed in group races but has to step up on his best form and although he looked better since losing his manhood, has To prove he can get his head in front! Dancing Star I do like was very progressive last year but his run this season was terrible and could take a few runs to come back to form. my pick apart from Gosden being on top form, he has won a group race (group 3 over in France) Last season was a bit of a no go but you could argue, his best run was over this trip in the Ayr gold cup being beaten by some very good and consistent sprintersthe likes of Brando, Growl and Absolutely So. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Gosden was to get this horse back to winning ways after such a disappointing season last year. And 10/1 is a good ew bet against so many horses who have questions at the top of the market!

    My ones to avoid today:

    2:00 Towcester - Lined With Silver 3/1
    3:00 Towcester - Riddlestown 7/4
    4:20 Carlisle - Arthurthedeligator 4/1
    4:30 Towcester - Water Willow 9/4
    6:25 Windsor - Cardaw Lily 5/2

    I don't normally play with such ****ty prices but think these are worth a go. Win Lucky 31 and accumulator.

    If Forever Field touches evens then he will be a bet today. He jumped really well on chase debut, behind the impressive Bihad Bigoue. That form has been franked and I think this horse can be an improver over fences.

    I like Midnight Shot but he is carrying a penalty against a good horse here.

    Another good little novice chase despite the small field and only two horses really in it. The forecast looks obvious too.

    Interesting runner up at Carlisle today in the shape of TEAK for Ian Williams.

    His last run on the turf (on the flat at least) was in The Ces last autumn where he ran off a mark of 80. He's spent much of the winter running with the sand rats on the old cat litter and now returns to turf off 62.

    Took some 10/1 earlier but I see he's now being backed

    Two for me today

    UAE Queen 3.10 Redcar. Keen to take the fav on as she was disappointing last time out although she has very strong form in her previous starts. UAE Queen is nicely bred and should be capable of going close on debut. Worth a go at 5/2

    Eskendash 7.35 Leicester. Unlucky loser last time out. Surely still a well handicapped horse only up 1b to 78. 9/4 seems fair

    UK and Ireland difficult today, so just a small e/w on the PMU at Chantilly's fibresand track:

    16:25 Chantilly - Setfiretotherain e/w

    (This Stormy River (FR) gelding has a sporting chance to make the frame at a decent price).

    top class entertainment act available for bookings---all dates free ,as was deemed just too good for BRITAINS GOT TALENT.
    PRICES--non-negotiable, rather large "brown envelope" should suffice----hand puppets,extra.

    Difficult card for punters to solve at Punchy this evening.I had a wee ew dabble on Wee Tiger in 6.45 at 7/1 earlier.Looks a poor race and he has a least some sort of form coming into this after finishing second at Tipp lto.I would be happy with a place tbh.

    Was on that myself Ste. Horse was super fit and ready wasn't he. Patrick just popped him out and once he had the lead it was game over halfway I felt. Nice when it is kept simple, especially in a bumper.

    Interesting this. If you went in to a bookie on Saturday morning and asked for a price on John Terry to be subbed in the 26th minute what do you think the response would be?
    I think this is a story that the bookies have made up, its bollocks isnt it. The last response you would have got is "we will give you 100/1 and you can have a ton on it".
