Good Luck <ok>
 
Two horses fancied by connections tomorrow;
BEN CEE PEE M 14/1 Utt 2.40
NOBLE SILK 8/1 Asc 2.55 (this one is a moody ****er though)

See my old girl PRESENT TREND is out at Uttoxeter tomorrow also, I hope she goes well.
Cheers stick. I've been wondering when we would see her again. Every time I've looked she hasn't had any entries. Would have missed her tomorrow.
 
Can't think what she is doing in a (barely) 2m hurdle on fast ground. Maybe to get a good chasing handicap?

Uttoxeter, 3.15 Rhianna @ 14s ew. Handicap debut, upped in trip, ground ideal, yard in form. Will do for my Friday punt. Good luck all.
 
In the 4:05 at Ascot, Bermondsey wins today. It's not a very back able price so unless you can find another one or two to double or treble it up with then there's not much value.

Price completely gone now, odds on. I've doubled up with Mon Brav 13/2 in the 6:30 at York

A win is a win Smokey. Once you are gaining on your investment it's worth it if your that confident. Good luck <ok>

I don't stake enough to make the profit worthwhile. I'll be going through today's cards properly later on and will try find a couple more and go for treble. If I can't find any others I'll leave it but thought I'd post it up coz I know a lot on here bet big so might be worth it to them
 
Hello, all. Must say it’s absolutely wonderful that today at Ascot one of Wiltshire’s greatest is being commemorated amongst the old race titles. No, no, no, no, no, not the ‘Barney Chuckles Selling Handicap’…No. I mean the ‘Brown Jack Stakes’. A tremendous old boy who won a Champion Hurdle, a Goodwood Cup, a Doncaster Cup, a Chester Cup and amazingly 6, I say 6, Queen Alexandra’s. Brown Jack has even got a hostelry named after him, in the county, although there is no truth in the persistent rumour that I’ve regularly been carried out of said tavern after drinking half a dozen GnT’s too many. No, no, no, no, NO!

Well I’m on according to the latest edition of ‘The Weekender’ there is a very, very good 2YO set to debut this eve at York (7.00). STAR ARCHER is rumoured to be quite decent (please note, regular readers, this is not my views but that of said publication. Just passing it on.) Haven't had a wager myself though as those bookie chappies are taking absolutely no chances re this one and only offering, currently, odds-on quotes.

Good luck, pilgrims.
 
I've got that Friday feeling for a flutter

Bermondsey (Ascot 4:05), Wild Dancer (Chepstow 6:50) and Ulis De Vassy (Uttoxeter 4:25) treble 8/1

A Boy Named Sue (Thirsk 2:00) 12/1 e/w (only because the man in black came on my ipod shuffle this morning)
 
All the lads report she's a lovely ride.

Didn't she get into a bit of trouble while filming a video on your island? A landowner took umbrage with her romping round his fields in her bra and knicks. I recall it was on the news channels the last time I was over there. Obviously said landowner was not one of your lads.

That was in Bangor, just outside of Belfast. Landowner was a "god-fearing" type alright who said "down with that sort of thing"

That'll be it. I remember seeing a few stills on the news and thinking no Irishman I've ever met would take umbrage at that. Each to their own I suppose.
