FOLLOWMYBUTTONS 12/1 Taunton 2.30
This one looked a really nice chasing type when absolutely hosing up at Towcester earlier in the year. He was then pulled up at Ascot last time when breaking a blood vessel. Obviously a horse with one or two issues as he also wears a tongue tie but to me looks like an animal that this very shrewd operator has got in off a handy mark.
 
Morning all, disappointed with the abandonment at Haydock as was looking forward to that stayers slog in the Haydock mud. Anyway onwards to Taunton and in the lucky last my eye was taken by Little Rocky as it had a higher flat rating than it's current hurdling one (that can't happen very often can it) and the booking of a highly rated claimer to lessen the weight burden even further. 0/16 over hurdles and 40/1 so I dismissed it. Now into 16s. Missed the boat in terms of price but had a little dabble. This horse mixed it with some decent animals on the flat and finished a length second to Sea Moon early on in both their careers. Good luck anyone having a punt today.
 
Lazy twat, I will do the write up then.
Carried across the course over C&D last time when going well and looking certain to get involved. Current mark is bang where you would be expecting this one to win from and with luck in running should go very close indeed.
1:20 Newcastle currently 6/1 from an opening 15/2.
Plenty of money for Amazour in this race too.

Nice forecast, yes I did it.
Nice EW money there Nass, looked home and hosed 1f out
