ok boys , as a well known nonentity i'm doing a L15 , proper nonsense bet <laugh><laugh> , my darts are for different reasons aimed at potential and re emergence of form
Railroad Junkie , taunton 3/1 , yard going well , drops in class , faces dodgy opponents
Very First Time 8/1 , front runner who loves the mud , yard bubbling up , potential
Dark Magic 12/1 lingfield , dean ivory puts the visor on this front runner , whether he can fend off the closers or not remains , but has a win in him off his tumbling mark
The Dealer 16/1 , last but possibly the darkest of the day , bumper runner for very small outfit , has form in the book that could make a mockery of his price , equally e may bomb out , but the trainer knows about bumper winners and at the price is a sporting bet !

good luck if you play , see you again sometime <whistle>

Back To The Thatch and Foreign Legion my two darts today.

That bumper is an interesting little race. I was very surprised to see Dalgleish with an ex p2p horse. Not his usual source for sure. His record in bumpers suggests it’s worth keeping an eye on.

looked at foreign legion , trainer been running it at all kinds of trips , surfaces , but as a horse that seems to like southwell sand , not sure about polytrack .... dalglish is an excellent trainer , but after his hot spell , seems to have cooled recently, especially his jumps horses , but that bumper is weird , nothing would suprise me in that , even hemings representative !

Couple of football bets for me. Enhanced odds with Skybet.
Burnley to win and both teams to score.
Man U to win and both teams to score, double 18/1.
Throw in City to win and both teams to score and the treble pays 66’s. Have a good day fellas.

Ruacana @ 40/1 (15p R4) ew in the card commencer at Haydock for this non entity. Formerly a decent handicapper but his last win was 4 years ago. He's tumbled down the weights by about 2 stone. However any form he's shown in recent years has come at around this trip on easy ground. He's in a class 4 over hurdles for the very first time and lto out he showed up well for a long way before fading. That was his first run in over a year and the ground would have been lively enough but at least he showed he was still interested in racing. Granted a huge leap of faith is required to think he can prevail here but his chances are far better than his odds IMO. Good luck anyone having a bet today.

That's ridiculous Ste. Smallest horse in the race wins the GN and a race at the festival. Djakadam hasn't won since Dec 16. Does Ricci have shares in the RP?

Got buffeted at a couple of hurdles down the back, lost his place completely and then stuck on for 5th. There's a race in this horse but not today. Ruacana the first entry into my cliff horses for 2019 <laugh>.

KEEP ROLLING displayed a fine attitude last time out,and will surely be well prepared for this hurdling debut.so,with further progress neaerly assured,has a decent chance today..

WEST OF THE EDGE hasnt shown much so far this season,but he was a good second in this last year,and maybe needed both his runs this season..
