    hi fellas! wish you all a nice and prosperous sunday! here are my first three for today:

    carlisle,1 00:

    not too many household names here,but i think,ONE FOR ROSIE has some potential to do better this season.won well enough on his debut last season,and some of those behind have franked the form since,so definite shout today.

    1 30:

    my first thought here was count meribel,who i like a lot,and he was a very useful staying hurdler last season,but he might not get an easy lead today,so his jumping will be fully tested on chase debut.GRAND MORNING,on the other hand,likes to come late,and off a strong pace,which he should get.also was in sparkling form at the end of last season,and he can continue,where he left off today..

    huntingdon,1 10:

    not many with really solid claims here,but although ROCK ON OSCAR comes with risks attached,i am willing to give him a chance in this class.he was in the mid3ties in his time with paul nicholls,and can boast some useful form over fences.so,if ready today,for his new yard,should go well..

    cork,2 10:

    WINTER ESCAPE is a horse,i hold in the highest regard.the way,he romped home at galway last time out was very impressive,and the skys the limit,i d say..

    thx a lot,fellas! yes,didnt look too well,especially for moonlight escape..

    carlisle,2 40:

    another tough decision for me,as i like both VALADOM and yanmare here.but i think,the ground is a shade too lively for the latter,so i go with richard hobsons charge today,who had a nice pipe-opener over hurdles a few weeks ago,and that should have blown any cobwebs away.hes a strong stayer,so this trip on this track should n t pose a problem..

    yes,big shout for the latter in the cork national,especially,after what happened at cheltenham last time out,but i rely on my old bud RAZ DE MAREE.well,it wont be easy with that weight,on ground probably not soft enough for him,but if he reproduces his fine run from last year,wont be too far away,i suppose..

    Mullins throws a double handful at a big flat handicap and gets mugged by Tony Martin <laugh>

    A very satisfactory return for Channon's Mr Whitaker at Carlisle today. Travelled comfortably and asserted well to land the spoils. Although a smallish field there was some decent types in behind - Cyrname, Rene's Girl, Happy Diva. I reckon all of them will be winning races this season.
