Pontefract 15.40 D'bai's 5l 3rd (being eased when chance gone) to Rivet and Thunderstorm looks far too strong in this company and should hose up at 11/4 (lads). Taking a chance on the going. The unbeaten colt and unbeaten filly must be respected but they will need to improve some to match the selection

Non-runner count steadily increasing at Windsor.
Brian has now skipped out, so Goodwood Moonlight the FAV at Plumpton.
And yes, Ron, I'm vary wary of Caitie, but it's a tiny bet and something that I read online pushed me towards it; placed will do for me.

I forgot to say Good Luck all earlier, so Good Luck all.
 
Pontefract 310 Street Poet 340 D'bai 440 Oriental fox 3 singles doubles and a treble
 
Zlatan wins <yikes> is that a sign?

On another note - distinctly unimpressed with the ITV racing line up!

That was not as comfortable as I expected

Good Shout :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Crikey the 16.10 at Ponty was anything but tight. The first 2 about 30l clear of the 3rd. The New Approach colt a bit too strong in the end pulling away to win by a couple of lengths

What is Burmese doing in the 16.40 Pontefract? Beaten just 6¼l by Sheikhzayedroad last month in a G2 and only 4½l by the same horse in a G1 prior to that (when 5th to Order of St George) in a G1 and last time out ran 7th beaten 10¼l in a G1 by Quest For More. His last 5 runs have all been in group races, prior to which he won a handicap ("shaken up inside final furlong, soon clear, stayed on strongly, eased close home"). And he isn't even top weight. Surely he should walk this and you can still get 11/10 with Lads

Oh dear. Last year's Royal Ascot winner (Queen Alexandra Stakes) wins. Beaten 50l last time out
