    Tidal, one of my best mates owns a leg in this horse, I text him my nice winner yesterday and when he messaged me back a thank you I asked him about today. He said maybe £2 EW, just want him to run ok and come back sound.
    I dont want to put you or anyone else off backing him but I know they want to win a 0-140 chase with him. If you watched him at Cheltenham he travelled better than anything else in the race before blowing up 3 out due to lack of peak fitness.
    I am not saying he wont win but if I am reading the script right then this run is to put him spot on for next time!

    thaks Sticko, was going to text you about the very same horse nd El Dancer which i know you have put up before when ready

    Kings Grey for me today but will be put to the sword by the Red Devil Boys but in staying loyal KG is fit and is loved in the yard and treated as a star

    Jetson in the 3;05 at Lim looks great value at 14s and with PP paying 5 places it would be daft not to

    ROTO ive text RM re stopped out but no reply as yet, your summary is spot on and EW is the way ive gone at 12s

    need something else for me lucky 15 and EW accy so will watch with interest on this excellent forum

    Keep it up boys, keep it up

    stay frosty

    Jumped off the page at me Stick - excellent course form and has the assistance of the champ today. My bookie has this as his "happy hour" race today - best industry price on all runners between 12.00 - 13.00 GMT. Hope there is still some 4/1 knocking around .................

    I was going to go for something more gutter-level like "Mr Henderson's ****-buddy" or "Nicky's naked nympho" but thought it might put people off their breakfast

    5.10 Wolves

    Bestfootforward 7/1

    This represents a very rare foray into Maiden company for me but this looks an extremely poor contest that should not take a lot of winning and I'm hopeful of a big showing from Olivia Maylam's 3 year old filly who will be making just her 2nd career start after running well to a point on her debut just 9 days ago. This daughter of Motivator is pretty nicely bred with being a half sister to the double Group 3 winning Azmeel as well as a half sister to the German Listed winner Baisse and although finishing a 6L beaten 9th on her debut I think there was quite a bit to like about her first racecourse appearance at Lingfield. After being keen down to the start and weak in the market (10/1 out to 16/1), Bestfootforward broke well from her draw in stall 1 to take up the running and she set a pretty decent clip over the 1m trip. She swung into the home straight still in front and was bang there at the 1f pole before she didn't find an awful lot for pressure and once beaten Kirsty Milczarek certainly wasn't overly hard on her and allowed her to come home in her own time. She certainly didn't look devoid of ability and I'm hoping she'll strip fitter for her debut run. On paper, that race certainly looked tougher than this contest with the 2nd home rated 65 whilst today's market leader Lieutenant Dan is only rated 55 and I don't think her trainer could have found a much easier race than this one. Although her half siblings were seen at best effect over middle distances, I think the drop back to 7f is a positive and she certainly seemed to have the pace for this trip on debut. From a good berth in stall 2, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing her go from the front again this time. This represents Olivia Maylam's only runner of the day and she has hit some really good form of late with 2 winners and a neck beaten 2nd from her last 5 runners and given that she certainly is not renowned for winning debutants I certainly feel Bestfootforward should come on considerably for her opening run. Chris Catlin, who is 1-6 for the yard, takes the ride and I think its very interesting that he hangs around for 3 hours for this ride and I'm hoping that is a signal that she is fancied to run well. Although not a race to get heavily involved with, this Maiden looks extremely winnable and given that Bestfootforward is bred to be a pretty decent horse and if improving for her debut I'm hoping that she can land this contest at a nice price.
