First race Dundlak (5.30) Damien English runs Alfirak ( currently 10/1).
He was on ATR when this had its first run for him ( had one previous run in France) at Dundlak on 26 Jan and he said it was a nice horse that should win races but probably needs the run.Finished 5th that night.Could be worth an each way ,that said 10lb claimer might indicate that its not tonight.However his horses are in good form and he is a young local trainer who does well at Dundalk

CASH OUT, CASH OUT. I've had a large bet on this and have been into town this morning and have him in many doubles, trebles. Surely she can get a winner at some stage.
She is certainly moving the market - on the drift and odds against across the board now.
Why so much confidence in Ok Corral, it most definitely doesn't look unbeatable and both Chosen Path and Run to Milan look like pretty decent horses and I couldn't confidently rule out any of the top 5 in the market. As bad as Alex Hammond is I don't think she can be blamed if this one gets turned over today in what looks on paper quite a competitive race.
Bumper form for starters, beat High Bridge and second to Yorkhill. If there is anything close to that standard today I will be surprised and poorer.
As I already pointed out, his form with his stablemate equates to not far off grade one form. He really shouldn't get beaten today.
Stick vs. Alex the Albatross - the irresistable force against the immovable object ........................... adding untold interest to a Kempton Novices Hurdle 
3:00 Kempton - Miss Yeats e/w
(Disappointing so far, but has run a few decent races, one of which was at this track last May. Worth a small e/w play at the 14/1 available in 4-places atm, although given the small stable S/P might well be better).

Quite excited about this Kempton race now, got the stream up on my i-Phone in the office and rooting for stick's steed to defy the Albatross. 6/5 as I type ........ go on my son
Well done Alex you've finally given stick a winner after months of him sponging!!
Facile victory for what looks a good chaser in the making ... easy money - just how we scouters like it !! Cheeers stickler .... now onto Barakil at bangor !!
State her knickers must be in right now having finally had a winner!
