    Morning all-- a very poor days racing today, from ayr and huntingdon in the mud, and on the sand at Southwell and Wolves-- but as we all know something has to win whether its Group1 or Class 7-- sometimes if you can find an unexposed horse at low level the price might be huge......on the other hand.....

    Golden Sparkle 2 50 Ayr-- a poor contest , but with Ian Duncan's string in fine form this has a good chance , over at Huntingdon Noble Witness in the 12 40 caught my eye last time, after getting outpaced and 'left' behind, stayed on again towards the end -- a weak race again but there for the horse with the most resilience--and noble witness knows how to win.

    Good luck if any are desperate to play !

    I like the look of three at ayr
    150 arc warrior 9s ew
    220 ros castle 9/2
    250 one for harry 5/2 available but I cant see it lasting

    3 sand rats only backing as I was given 3 but I am going against 2 but will list the 2 in brackets
    1230 lexis heroes 5/2
    100 maxthe machine 11/2 ew (sir geoffrey may have the claimer but still looks weighted for this)
    130 khajaaly 6/1 ew (sofias no one I may be very wrong here but 6s on my pick seems ridiculose)

    if I get 5 before the races I will endeavour to put up some reasoning good luck all

    Poor racing but I'll have a small each way play on Little Boy Boru @ 25s in the 2nd race at Ayr. Brian Boru progeny certainly seem to appreciate plenty of give in the ground and the Irish based trainer has around 50% win/place strike rate when venturing across the water. Good luck all.

    Delta Forty for me in that one Bob - by Alflora so will relish the testing ground. Of her 3 runs to date, only the first was on easy ground (at Catterick on soft) and she was a decent 2nd to the Crawford's Legacy Gold (now with David Pipe) who ran a fine 3rd behind The Govaness at Cheltenham in a similar heat. That looks solid form with give in the ground. A couple of the others have form on soft but at 12/1 I think Delta Forty is a bit of e/w value.

    Great shout <applause>

    Might have gotten a bit closer if it hadn't been pretty badly hampered by the horse going backwards...

    I really dont know why khajaaly is lightly raced at that distance just beat by sillybilly and they left the pack for dead I thought they hadgot it with the quick turn of foot but fair play to sillybilly for showing a little extra
