Best of luck with Foxtrot Knight today Nass, hope he brings home the bacon...well the money and trophy at least!
Not pristine tips today but sharing what I am backing SPESSARTINE 25/1 Fakenham 2:30 rare flat runner for the yard and booking of excellent apprentice has me getting involved FLICHITY 10/1 Fakenham 3:00 looks well treated and even more so with the claimer on board KINGSCOURT NATIVE 4/1 Exeter 8:20 as the booking of Coleman really catches the eye. Money for it and top yard in bumpers when the cash is down!
Afternoon, pilgrims. All the best, Nassau, old boy, with your horse today. Hope he powers home and then takes you to Royal Ascot! You are already established as the forum’s 5th favourite owner, just behind The Queen. A good result today could see you challenging the likes of Mr Waley-Cohen, Mr Ponsonby and Sir Simon Cowell even further up the leaderboard. Good luck to you and the Knight! Corking card at Exeter this evening and in the ‘lucky last’ several members of the ‘county set’ will be looking to recoup loses incurred at Newbury on SPRINGBOKS. Slightly strange that on that occasion Springboks was deemed worthy, in the second richest bumper in the Isle, of an 8/1 quote but this evening he’s 16’s! Sure to have come on for the run this heat is weaker and he’s always been well regarded at home. Good luck all.
Waltz Darling should place tonight 8pm @ Catt 8s with PP at the moment, not pristine i grant you that any way Hoople Heads Stay Frosty
Hello lads. Mexican chilli chicken wrap and a bottle of Old Speckled Hen. Good luck with your fella today Nass. Humans/Ste...can I have a weather update from the Dublin area please!...interested in one at Fairyhouse but needs juice underfoot. GL all.
I'm a little south of Dublin but it's generally overcast and dry with a good stiff breeze That's all from the weather desk and we're back with more after the 6 o clock news
Seems that they think this Zebedee filly is a good horse of Varian's, very well supported this morning and only the jolly holding up against it in the market. Really looking forward to seeing the race, when I get home this evening
Amazing to think it is over 30 years since David Elsworth sent out Desert Orchid for his debut at Kempton Park in a novices hurdle (where he took that crashing fall, stayed down, the screens went up but he was just winded and stood up 10 minutes later to a great cheer from the crowd) and here he is sending one out to beat a Godolphin hotpot and the hope of Nass. Well played that man and unlucky Nass.
Won from my tracker 6:00 Catterick MAKE ON MADAM made her debut last month at Beverley where she was handed the plum stall in 1. However she completely blew the start and then had to come right round the field to finish a never nearer 4th. Two re-oppose this evening, Magic Time who finished 2 lengths in front but was quick away and seemed to know her job and Millar rose who finished 2 lengths behind the selection. With natural improvement I expect Make on Madam to come out on top this evening at 3/1
By the sound of it Foxtrot Knight didn't get involved from the start and Harry gave him a good education. After the delayed start to his career I hope he returns sound and ready to go again in the not too distant, with that experience under his belt. Interestingly The Paco Kid looks set to run at Ascot at the weekend in the hope of building on his debut. The yard haven't hit their straps with the young horses as of yet, so I am not too worried. Not watched the race yet though, so shall restrain from major comment.
My money would be on most or all of McCoy's mounts at Exeter tonight (aftertiming on the first I know)
Karinga Dancer for Harry Fry (6.50) Flemenson for Jonjo (7.20) Shutthebackdoor for Jonjo (8.20) Could do worse than a patent or trixie on those 3
