    Was going to say the wagon wheel looked like a good bet at goodward in the 3.35 but see its Alex Hammonds tip of the day so backing Bee Case instead!

    Not a tip as the odds are too prohibitive, but SEVEN HEAVENS runs in the Conditions event at Goodwood. He holds entries for all the big end of season races and has frightened off the competition with just 2 others going to post.

    Had a text late last night from a friend saying he had been given some strong info for KAJAKI, 6.15 Ripon. Managed to get 4/1.

    3 45 Ripon - Giovannni Di Bicci 8/1. If it runs will probably win, ran yesterday and didn't even get touched and now its out again today under Cosgrove.

    Probably be a non runner tho, but keep an eye on it

    Morning, team. Nothing for me today but please note that Alan King has Cosmeapolitan entered in a couple of very, very valuable handicaps on Saturday (one at Ascot and the other at Haydock Park). Could this be his final hurrah before embarking on a career over the sticks?!? Although, I must say that, Sir Michael's Stargazer does look a most formidable foe should both opt to go to Royal Berkshire.

    It's been a while, so time to catch up!

    First, congrats to Bob, I hope all goes well and that Mother and Child stay healthy; everything changes now. My kids are 5 and 3 and are a right handful!
    Second, thanks to Chelsea for Big Time, nice e/w bet that one.
    Third, Crowley vs De Sousa has officially got me interested and I think I'll be playing in that respect from now until it is decided.
    Fourth, what's going on? TRFC top of the league, unbeaten? That can't last!

    On to today.
    Quite like the look of Buccaneers Cove in the 5.15 at Ripon.
    I also think there's a chance for Pacofilha in the opener at Goodwood.
    Dare I play on my favoured Bradley/Norton combo at Goodwood, 4.45? Divine Call won in similar circumstances this time last year at this course. Hmmm.

    As hinted, I've done a couple of e/w trebles with tiny amounts in the circus that is De Sousa vs Crowley; a nice sub plot that.

    Good Luck all, back next week.

    One has caught my eye in the juvenile hurdle at Worcester this evening - Pongo Twistleton. Lovely name for a gelding and named after the Sports Master at big school attended by Sir Barney Chuckles (or so he tells me). Placed over 12 furlongs on the flat for Jonjo, should go close if trying (nudge nudge, money should tell us).

    Nice win from SEVEN HEAVENS but got very lit up after being bumped on leaving the stalls. A very nice £25,500 pay day for connections.

    Unlucky again Chelsea completely blew the start giving them 6 lengths and finished full of running, if breaking on level terms I've no doubt it would have won that race

    Dark Crystal 33/1 ew in the next at Hamilton could go well at a price. This horse is definitely capable and I think it may well be overpriced.

    The market is speaking very much in favour of Alan King's Invocation who is in to 6/4 fav with some e/w snifters for the Aga Khan bred Hazamar, who is now with Sophie Leech in sunny Gloucestershire. Pongo pretty friendless and out to 8s, maybe he has raided the tuck shop during first break?
