    I hope we all had a great festive period.

    Well done all winners today on here. Some fantastic tipping.

    Something I have noted these last two days is that Alan King's horses aren't running that well.

    I could have missed something as I don't follow the results that close but I backed two of his fancied runners yesterday who ran poorly and call me star today ran poor.

    Just trying to give an insight to fellow posters/readers who maybe thinking of backing his horses over the next few days. Anyone else any thoughts?

    King has had a real difficult season and has had injuries to his big stars from what I gather.


    Walkon ran two big races for him without winning and Raya Star ran well again.


    Any news on Montbazon?

    Mark Hughes should never get another managerial position ruined QPR. They go down they are ****ed and will be another Portsmouth simple as that.

    According to some of their fans (not those on here) they are the richest club in the world so they'll bounce straight back up and win the Premiership in 2015.

    Re: Alan King out of form etc, I think the desperate going is a great leveller at the moment so it is difficult to know whether horses are running to form or not. I would imagine alot of yard are holding back on some of the horses who they think may not like the ground - could this be why we haven't seen Montbazon yet? Was always going to be a difficult season for King having lost some of his best horses to injury. Walkon has been desperately unlucky, Hold On Julio deperately disappointing.

    Smad Place not great either oddy. To be honest it could be a problem with the stable, issues with the ground as you say or even that the horses aren't actually that good.

    Cheers for the thoughts guys. I certainly won't be backing any of King's horses for a while yet.

    Vendor couldn't jump. Ground probably didn't help it.

    That's the one Odddy. He is still held in high regard (follow Mcneil racing on twitter) but is off injured atm. Young horse but I doubt he will ever show anything on the track.

    Stick,

    Well done with the tipping yet again, I always keep an eye out for your selections and appreciate you putting them on here. A tip is just someones opinion most of the time but if they also come with some inside knowledge then great. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work i'm sure i'm not the only one on here who values your opinion.
