    Morning one and all. Please bear with me here!!!

    3.15 Kempton Park

    This race is fascinating because its a rare sprint at Kempton Park that looks set to be run at a proper pace. We have a good few horses in the race who like to go from the front, including the very fast Island Legend and Best Trip. Therefore the pace should be generous and this should suit the inform filly Sugar Beet.

    Sugar Beet is a fascinating filly, she has been in fine form in the late period of the season, winning a handicap at Goodwood before winning a fair five furlong sprint at Lingfield. She then ran in a six furlong handicap at this track last time out, finishing only 7th when involved in a blanket finish. That day she got shuffled to the rear and came with a very taking run just before the distance pole, before slightly flattening out inside the final 100 yds. She didn't get the run of the race that day, she also was noted as being restless in the stalls, and I think today will be much more ideal for her.

    The form of that six furlong race reads well enough (both pre and post race) and I think this is a weaker race for the filly.

    I have backed her EW at 11/2 BOG and also to place. One other bet I have had is her to beat Earlsmedic in a straight forecast (that horse is better at 6 but should rattle home too)

    Oddy - Just found this on the BBC news reel... I see them liberal minded Germans know how to look after the top workers...!!!

    German insurance firm organised sex party for salesmen
    One of the world's biggest insurance companies organised an orgy with prostitutes for its top salesmen at a Hungarian spa.

    Ergo, a division of German firm Munich Re, has confirmed that this happened in 2007.

    Gerhard Schneibel, journalist for the media organisation Deutsche Welle, told BBC Radio 5 live: "There was plenty of alcohol and 20 prostitutes there."

    "They had colour-coded arm-bands, apparently," Schneibel explained to 5 live Breakfast.

    "One was for regular hostesses, the other was for prostitutes, and the white ribbon was for prostitutes reserved for top management."

    What bonus will your compnay be giving you this year... A 2 foot long Bratwurst and telling you to get on with it... <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Peddlers v Sprinter Sacre sounds like a mouthwatering battle and another race which I'll be missing. As if the King George alone isn't punishment enough <grr>. One recent renewal of the Wayward Lad Novices Chase gave me the joint biggest winner I've ever had. Without looking it up, points for anyone who can name the horse! :D

    This came out a few months ago and whilst it initially caused some moral outrage it was fairly quickly swept under the carpet. Hopefully the white ribbon girls all had the clap <laugh>

    At my company all Bratwurst is cancelled until further notice. Not compliant with the companies 5S policy I'm afraid. Can you believe we have 5S police here? And every meeting room, photocopying room and kitchen has a photo on the wall showing that particular room in a clean and tidy state, with instructions below on how to keep it clean and tidy. My mate (who also cycles to work regularly) keeps a spare pair of shoes under his desk and some nob end stuck a "5S non-compliant" sticker on it. Bunch of fecking tosspots.

    "Wayne and Coleen's two horses are a two-year-old colt called Tomway and a yearling colt by Bahamian Bounty out of Amazon Beauty, yet to be named. Wayne's colours are pink and white."

    Could Tomway be an acronym for "Tits out madam, Wayne's 'aving yearnings"?

    Bahamian Bounty out of Amazon Beauty ...................... hmmm.......................
