    Bar De Ligne is thought capable of winning the beginners chase today. Currently 10/3. For me it's all a little bit too competitive so i'm not bothering.

    Mr Henderson’s General Miller makes his fencing debut in that one, Bob. Although a bit of an old rogue at times (General Miller that is not Mr Henderson) if ‘on-song’ he has to be the one to beat.

    Morning,

    After some free winning advice from you all. I'm off to Goodwood tonight and had a look at the card and have no idea what to bet the wife's wages on so any pointers would be superb.

    Could do Barney. There's a case to be made for Grandad's Horse as well. I don't like the favourite though. If he wins it's purely down to experience. At least two of this lot will make up to 135+ chasers.

    Space war 6.05 good wood. One from the tracker, my notes say missed the break by 5 and was very impressive
    Making up the ground to win.

    Saint, if the Paintball who won the 2012 Imperial Cup turns up in the 8.15 he’ll win the race by half the distance of the home straight. If the Paintball who has been seen on the track since that race turns up he’ll lose the race by half the distance of the home straight. You’re betting on whether or not you think the Flat will revitalise him and he’ll return in the same sort of form as his March 2012 pomp. Fences didn’t do much for him last time but will the Level??? You can get 8/1. Its certainly got big risk attached but as I say if returning to his old level of performance that quote has got huge benefits as well.

    No guarantees, but SHORT SQUEEZE should go well in the 6.35 - that is if the lad I overheard in the Newmarket branch of Tesco last nigth is to be believed!

    I thought that too, was slow into stride then pulled the jockeys arms off. Would go closer you'd think if she settled better. But having watched the race back the ease at which Secret Gesture won that I can't see her getting any closer, jockey was absolutely motionless from start to finish. SG a lightly raced filly and should have a bit more scope for improvement.

    I have backed this horse last time Princess, it clearly has ability without doubt but does not look the easiest of rides and seems to be taking time to get the idea of racing. On ability it should win tonight however.

    Thanks as always for passing on <ok>

    Thanks Princess.

    As an aside did you happen to observe the contents of his basket...was he a value range man or a Tesco Finest customer.

    Might give us an indication as to the success of his information.

    Good for him - certainly not to be sniffed at.
