    Cheers Dex.

    That Balding horse had itself beat before the race even started. Got worked up before the event and then pretty near bolted to the start. Could be better than it has shown tonight if it calms down. Already a gelding so thats not the answer.

    RV, I really like KING TORUS later too and cant believe that its the one of the front floor that has drifted.

    I like King Torus aswell, he looks the best horse on form, and he even beat Skillful LTO, so don't know why he's double the price particularly when he's won on the soft:biggrin:

    Lucy Wadham couldnt be in better form and if MIDNIGHT MACARENA translates chase form to hurdles she will take all the beating. Had a heavy fall last time though!

    KING TORUS has btw been gelded since his last run so potential to improve too I would say!

    7.40 Windsor

    Derfenna Art 22/1


    Think its interesting George Baker rushes here from Wolves for only one ride on Seamus Durack's unexposed 3 year old on his handicap debut. Tongue tied first time, Derfenna Art has put up some decent performances in behind and ahead of horses that are higher rated than him and he looked as if he was the type who would improve as a 3 year old. Although it wont be any easy task from about an 8 month break, I certainly think his handicap mark of 66 certainly looks workable and is the only thing that really caught my eye today with the trainer/jockey combination yielding 2 wins from 11 starts.

    One I am getting on early for tomorrow is MUSNAD 8-1 9.20 Kempton for one of my favourite fiddling yards. 1lb out of the handicap but I think its well treated. We shall see.
