    Morning all.

    This is real flat racing :).


    Interestng PN has put up Solar Deity. I heard on some commentary station Botti thought he was a group horse and was expected to win first time out. He will have had to improve on that effort but the price he went off suggests as PN has said that he is held in high regard.

    Like Topclass I fancy Samitar today but one negative may well be the step down in distance. The most exciting prospect out today is JUNGLE BEAT imo. He looked very good first time out last season and I am surprised he is an 11/4 shot today. Loving the Gosden/Tabor combo

    Same source as last two winners:

    Loyal and Trusted 8.05 Kempton

    My mate backed it at 14/1 apparently. Now 4/1 but the fav has been withdrawn. Like I've said before it's not from someone I know personally but via my best mate who goes on a rival forum.

    I'll be waiting for the show at around 7.55 to get a drift then backing each way. He's a little too short for me at that price.

    I'm not a massive fan of the site RV so just rely on getting the text through to tell me what this chap tips up. Did you hear about his 100/1 winner? Unreal.

    I haven't used it for a while tbh - just like to browse sometimes. Nope I didn't see the 100/1 winner. Amazing stuff- what was the horse called ?

    I often have a flutter on the racing in south africa as that is normally the only racing on during my lunch break from 1-2.There is alot of big priced horses that come in at 33s/40s & 50s so it wouldnt suprise me if he picked a 100/1!!Gotta say the stall handlers are brutal over there getting the horses into the stalls on time,always carnage!!!

    Of course it goes without saying that I&#8217;ve backed TELWAAR in the 3.35 at HQ, but I see he&#8217;s been the subject of a gamble, in from 5s this morning to 3s.

    Goodluck to all.

    I see that both Kalahari King and State of Play have been retired and that their runs at Aintree, last week, have proved to be their last. I’m sure I speak for everyone on the forum when I say that I wish both a ‘perfect pensionable period’.
