    Fair play on the Yankee! Unfortunately I had v-neck in my 4 fold and as usual there had to be one to let it down!

    Word of warning...my other 4 fold has 3 up so waiting on rumiayan in 4.30 for this one so probably should be an avoid horse for everyone now! And cheers bluesky for Flemish school he was part of this 4 fold I did as a saver for the day!

    Although absolutely smashed by the favourite Ruwaiyan last time, I think 4.30 Wolves Living The Life 7/1 is definitely worth an each way against that rival tonight. I feel she went off slightly too hard when the pair over C+D when the pair met last month and the 10lb swing is huge (yet completely justified). Richard Kingscote, who gave Living The Life a lovely ride to win 2 starts back, gets back in the saddle and at 7/1 I definitely feel she is the value of the race.

    I thought the favourite was too short in that race ROTO but thought the horse to take it on with if any was Personal Touch.

    I think living the life has only won at level5 whilst the fav easily won against it in level 4 and is clearly a level 4 and improving. Personal touch is a level 4 winner but has been tried considerably higher without ever winning.

    I feel that Living the Life will win well once again back in class 5 but today the favourite will fight it out with Personal touch. I decided to not bet however so will cheer yours on.

    Just done by the better horse on the day. No harm each way though.

    Very unlucky there ROTO i thought he was just going to hold on, well called on him reversing form with the favourite however. It's a shame the saddle slipped on Personal touch as I think he would have been able to get involved today with the weight clearly catching up with the fav.

    Very unfortunate with the saddle going on Personal Touch alright. Nothing worse than never getting a run for your money!

    Beaten into 2nd by the small matter of nine lengths but drifted to 12/1 so each way returned okay.

    Well done Stick. I didn't back it so didn't check the result. Had a stinker of a day. Missed a team meeting because a customer called early doors with something fairly urgent, couldn't call my boss to let him know i wasn't going to turn up so will get a bollocking tomorrow, got stuck in standstill traffic on the M6 on the way home and lost my phone with the distinct possibility it is sat in a service station somewhere between Birmingham and Lancaster. Roll on Tuesday.

    Slower than a turtle neck? Should he be running on Jersey perhaps? Or should we send him to the mating sheds (I know he's been gelded) with that wonderful mare Buxom to produce a colt called Cleavage?
