4.10 Warwick Miss North Light no price yet Gordon Elliot sends 2over the Irish Sea and has Richard jonhson on board who has 40% strike rate for the trainer surely he wouldn't be sending her over without a chance! Will wait and see the price before I play but I expect her to open up 3/1
Evening Nottingham 220 paddy are offering 16s on top weighted CRUISETOTHLIMIT which looks way to big , cruise has a near on 50% place rate at this distance and looks strategically placed here with the drop back in trip and class . Claimer downing has a few rides under his belt including a win at this class onboard , plus he takes of a handy 5lbs .
150 Nottingham small affair with 5 runners , gm hopkins looking the crowds favourite who has won at the class and looks weighted well too but I have a niggling feeling this might not be that easy. The one that intrests me more at 10/3with c0r4l is MOOHAARIB yet to take a race in this class but the distance is right but more favourably are the conditions , moohaarib has really caught my eye in softer conditions so could and should turn this into an advantage.
Nottingham 3.25 Hazelrigg 7-1 I have to put this up once again as I backed it last week and it ran pretty well, suggesting his time is near. The horse is on a winning mark in my opinion, loves soft going and is in the right grade of race. If breaking well and gaining a prominent position I can see it kicking on in the final furlong. As an aside George Baker is at Kempton again in the evening and is riding the course very well of late. He was for me a Jamie spencer type jock but he has worked hard and really improved, keeping it more simple than he was prone to, with the result that many nearest finish horses are being turned into winners.
bpg 1.00 warwick going well at home. see if he can do it on the trsck if all goes well he is penciled in for donny. james was confident of a place stay frosty

Attivo: Just to add my thanks to those already received from other members. Much appreciated, great job! Heisenburg: Winter will be upon us shortly, no doubt, so no probs staying frosty. Tks vm for bpg heads-up, will have a little bit on. Good luck to stable and connections!
Morning, troops. Hope all well. Woeful Listed race at Kempers Park this eve (7.10). Is it the worst ever, for that grade, contested in the Isle??? However, as my bookie chappie once told me the 7/2 winner of a bad race pays the same as a 7/2 winner of a good one and so with that in mind would recommend a little tickle on FIRE FIGHTING. He has improved no end these past 2 or 3 months and on official figures has at least 3 lbs in hand on the rest of his rivals. His recent wins at Bath and Ayr hinted at a rapidly improving individual whilst his 2nd at Newmarket to a very good Godolphin animal (he was almost 3 lengths ahead of the 3rd) proved his perch in 3 figures to be totally justified. Think 7/2 this evening is very decent and can see him being too good for a bunch of opponents either returning after a long absence or simply not good enough. Good luck, pilgrims.
I've just had a dabble on it Sir B,3/1.My only other bet today is Lady Of Lamanver 5/1 win @ 4-10 Warwick. Happy betting all. Edit......my only other bet has now turned into a win/win/double.Well Christmas is coming!
One more thing while I remember the useful HASSLE has left Clive Cox’s barn and will now be trained by Mr Henderson. No change of owner as Mr Spence regularly transfers horses from the Flat to the forum's favourite trainer, Mr Henderson. Coincidentally I’ve tipped one of his Flat runners above – Fire Fighting. Spooky, or what, regular readers. Anyway, Hassle was rated as highly as 95 on the level and was a 4 time winner. Hassle is very well bred being a half-brother to Chachamaidee and J Wonder. Could he develop into a 'Supreme Novices' type, me wonders?!? But whatever happens Hassle couldn’t be in better hands. On that I think we can all agree.
On a tricky day -Outer Space in the 7 40 k at 10's seems good value -his form is up there with the best of these and has run twice here -a win and unlucky 3rd in a strong race - Too many ifs and ands elsewher --!
Just had a lovely turkey, bacon, stuffing, cranberry, spinach and lettuce baguette. It sounding revolting but I was persuaded and have to say it was mouthwatering. Meanwhile. I’ve really heard it all now! Jonjo O’Neill has just appointed former Cheltenham chief Edward Gillespie to act as his P.R. rep. Try doing what Mr Henderson and Mr Nicholls have been doing for years, man, then you won’t need no ‘spin doctor’. This is astounding news, methinks.
On BPG, hindsight tells me that his best form is on better ground than this? Warwick good-to-soft can still be demanding, whereas "heavy" on this track is bloody ridiculous, a ploughed field in fact. On the other hand, SwanHills could well have jinxed the good horse, probably did! Still, BPG owes me nothing, for sure!
