Was just about to mention this one too Ste, Nicholls has won this race for the last 4 years so bodes well.
Fancy BEAU PHIL 2.40 N.A. as Nicholls has won this for the last 4 years and my m8 texted me HOLLOW BLUE SKY in the 3.10 Haydock 12/1.
14:40 Newton Abbot - Muffins For Tea (This'll do for my Saturday punt at 13/2, did quite well LTO in fairly big field at Taunton, although not at all sure whether he'll have the pace to win this on such a tight track. Will also do a rfc with probable favourite Knockgraffon).
Card Game at 7.00 in the 13:25 at Haydock Rapacity Alexander at 6.50 in the 13:40 at Kempton Baby Bach at 1.33 in the 13:45 at Carlisle Octagon at 17.00 in the 14:35 at Haydock That's a Lucky 15. Good luck! http://freebetcalc.com/odds-calculator/lucky-15-calculator?prefill=7.00,6.50,1.33,17.00

Mark Johnston banged in two impressive winners from his opening 2 Y O's- one at Wolves yesterday and another lovely one at Kempton. He's going for a hat trick with his opening 3 juveniles in the next at 1.40. As you can imagine, a very short price!
Tom Dascombe horses in good nick too, very informative early season races. Wonder what Hannons is like in the next
All of them look considerably above average too- no surprise of one or two end up at Ascot but let's see what else comes out.
That Spring Loaded is some horse. Can be waited with and waited with then bursts through for a cosy narrow win. I doubt the handicapper will get to him for his next race unless he is extremely harsh.
After getting my fingers burned with Flintshire at Meydan last year, I am leaving well alone. Thank goodness they have sent him to America as that means I will not see him before the Breeders’ Cup! I would not touch California Chrome for reasons that have already been given. Looking at results so far at Meydan, the bookmakers will not be too disappointed with the odds-on banker turned over and only French-trained Vazirabad collecting for punters. I was given a tip midweek by the boss for a horse that was entered to run in a Listed Race at Auteuil on Sunday but looking on the France Galop website, it was not amongst Friday’s declarations so I do not have to pass that along.
Close but no ****ing cigar. Ryan Moore and timing a horse- can never seem to back him when he gets it right and he always nails my selection when against him.
He looks much-improved Swanny although I'm just a bit careful of Meydan form. He was on the upgrade last season regardless, so he'll be interesting in the summer.
