Good Luck <ok>
 
it’s going to pour down tommorow in the region , he’s won on soft ground !

Yes, but his last race in October was in heavy ground and it was a bad race. I think it would suit him better good ground. If it rains a lot...
 
Note for Goldbones - Are you on King's Lynn in the 15:45 at Chester tomorrow?. This good sprinter must have a decent chance tomorrow in this 5f Sprint?
 
On my yearly trip to Newmarket last year The Gadget Man went into my tracker after running 2nd in what looked a useful maiden. Runs at Nottingham in a10f Novice event. Actually he looked like the sort of horse that would make a good jumper one day.
 
I'm surprised Willie Mullins hasn't got one in the Chester Cup. Not like him to let 77 grand go begging.

Disappointing performance, was losing his place when he got a bang from Chimed 2f out. Young Benoit (on Chimed, who was odds on favourite) got two days holiday for that.

Is the old boy keeping his powder dry for the Royal Meeting??? Hats 'orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrf and all that...

I'll whisper this. Have a look at his 5YO gelding Bring On The Night. Was entered in the card commencer at Ascot today (was never going to run though. Was one of those entries made solely to see how the UK handicapper rated him. Just like him and Elliott do every January, in this country, to see if it is worth going to Cheltenham re the handicaps).

If WP, I say, WP is happy with this assessment (93) expect him to be heading to these shores. Maybe for an Royal Ascot handicap.

Eagle-eyed my man. Eagle-eyed.
