    Lesley Dawn 4/1
    Melon 4/7
    Dame De Compagnie 8/11
    River Wylde 4/6

    Lump on Lesley Dawn lads - will be a superstar!! 4/1 really is a great price. I’ve also put her in a small acca with the other 3 listed.

    ON A PROMISE 8/1 Wetherby 12.50
    First time in a handicap and a favourable mention in "Dark Horses" so no surprise to see the price plummeting!

    I've done it again. Spent ages thinking I had got a hopeful outsider only to find it's 5 to bloody 1.

    Dundalk 18.00 Your Pal Tal. "257604" that's his last 6 finishing positions. 16 runs since last win. That was off a rating of 66. Has since risen to 81 by July last year and tomorrow runs off 57. He is a 5 times course winner and last week ran well over the course. "slowly into stride, in rear, pushed 1 1/2f out, 11th and short of room briefly 1f out, reminder close home and kept on without threatening, never nearer". The drop down to 5f is not really what I would have been looking for, given he was slowly into stride. At big odds I would have said worth an ew bet but at 5's I think it might be wiser to bet in running (ie about 5 seconds after the off, if he gets a good start). If he doesn't get a good start put the money on Peace Mission who was 2nd in the same race last week and is 5lb better off

    Daltrey, a well-named colt out of Roger Sez in the first. But then owned by Princess Haya?

    At Headquarters today. Send me your tips, winners only please!

    Whilst his price (15/8) is very skinny for a horse coming off the back of a 609 day absence, and I certainly wouldn't advise anyone to back him today, it will nevertheless be very interesting to see how Sametegal gets on at Wetherby. Could be one that Nicholls might target at the "Sponsors Name" Plate at the festival.

    Very nice little beginners chase that race is with River Wylde, Hell's Kitchen and War Sound all capable of taking high order in the novice chase division this season. Nice that it is named after dear old Kalahari King too <ok>

    OLED is impressive, wooly, but it has a hefty price tag.

    Have a look at this:
    http://www.techradar.com/reviews/audio-visual/televisions/panasonic-tx-40dx600-1321864/review

    I've got an earlier model and I find Panasonic an excellent quality brand.
    Freeview Play is a very worthwhile app built in to the television, we use it all the time.

    Cheers.

    Ah ffs, didn't back it cos you never said to put the kids dinner money / birthday money / mortgage on it :)

    An interesting stat that you probably don't want to hear, but I see that Notts Forest have never lost a home game in any comp in its history against QPR.
