    Yet another windy day ...

    Huntingdon looks interesting, immediately drawn to Singlefarmpayment in that 2.40 race, tho Westren Warrior and Amiral Collonges both merit respect. I wonder why Eminent Poet, also on a treble, has drifted out to 16/1 this morning? Perhaps the extra distance ? Anyway, Russell to ride it home, then.

    I always like to get off to a good start, so I'll have a go at Supreme Bob, 12:50@Doncaster, who despite a penalty looks to have the best form over fences in the field.
    A good start on this one could see me back later for more!

    ( A Gosden double at Lingfield may also be worth a look ... )

    Good luck.

    Other than the one i mentioned earlier these are my other fancies today, all small stakes:

    12:50 Doncaster - Harveys Hope 20/1 EW
    1:00 Huntingdon - Trespassers Will 9/2 WIN
    2:00 Doncaster - Baku Bay 12/1 EW & Hollow Blue Sky 8/1 WIN (reverse forecast on aswell)
    2:40 Huntingdon - Invicta Lake 20/1 EW
    4:10 Doncaster - Mazovian 4/1 WIN

    Win double on First Rebllion 15/8 in the 4:00 Lingfield and Thomas Brown 6/4 in the 3:05 Doncaster.

    Then just had £1 treble on The Mumper 5/1, Dashing Oscar 11/4, Chantara Rose 7/2 in the 12:50, 13:25, 14:30 at Doncaster.

    Best of luck all who play today

    That novice chase looks dicey, uneasy favourite and nothing with convincing credentials - wicked spice is way too big at 20.......

    Quite a few I fancy over the jumps today and will back two that have been mentioned here today in SEE THE WORLD and SINGLEFORMPAYMENT. Blame me if they don't win as anything I've backed have been poor. A double i fancy at Lingfield this afternoon for Gosden/Havlin in CACHAO and KALKRAND. Good luck.

    Linking to the opener @Lingfield, thought you might be interested in this:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arachne

    I particularly like the line " There are three versions of this story, one in which Arachne loses and two in which she wins "

    For a 50/1 acca I've thrown two of Kirbys rides along with the Gosden pair. BROUGHTONS FANCY and SMUGGLERS LANE.

    Two seconds when I was on to win and no place when I'm on each way, it's going to be one of those days!

    The 2.40 at Huntingdon looks tough one to call but against everyone's advice I'm going with so fine for mr Hobbs . Also like the Skelton horse with Bridget Andrews up top.
    Cheers.
