YOU'RE A LADY 12/1 Towcester 5:20
Quite well supported when rather dissapointing on debut. That could have been a fair race though and she is nicely bred so there could be a lot more to come.

Lasagne, Roast Potatoes and Broccoli. 8/10.

Cor blimey it’s quiet on here this afternoon. Where is everyone?!? I guess either standing to attention, in respect of King Philip, or alternatively ‘camping’ it up on the Boxing thread.

I’ve a feeling my old fave, HIGH ASPIRATIONS (4.50 Towcester) might return to form today. Dropped to the very low perching of 92 he looks quite reasonably treated. Is a course winner and when running off a mark off 94 (his last winning mark) or below, since Feb 2016, his form reads -131114. Deffo showed a glimpse that he was on his way back, last time, as although only 4th of 5 the old boy still managed to finish just 4.25 lengths off the winner.

Good luck all.
 
Flat season must be back in full swing based on the quietness of the Daily Thread...:confused:

Anyway I've had a very rare foray into a punt on a flat race, albeit one full of jumpers. In the Clonmel 7.20 I expect GUSTY ROCKY to continue the trainer's fine record in this staying contest. This horse always takes a run or two to blow the cobwebs away and with a recent pipe opener over hurdles he should be coming along nicely. Current price of 4/1.
 
Stick, didn't that race change in a moment for your selection, dour staying hurdler in the making? Nice EW!

Rancid drift before the off, THEY knew...
Well done Ste!

Looked well beaten turning for home Nass but relished the climb to the finish and would probably have won if they had another 200yards to race. Interesting over hurdles over a trip (2m4f min)
