Good Luck <ok>
 
<cheers> Oh yes !
I'm sure I will log on in the morning prior to departure, so any tips you may have for 'Our Day Out' will be well appreciated.
Jakster - a trappy day tomorrow so be careful !! Surely western hymn and the derby hotpot can give us a short priced race day double ?? The rest will take some unraveling but we may get a good tip in bar lounge - fingers x'd ....

Western Hymm/Us Army Ranger Win Double

Perrault/Ian Fleming E/W Double
 
JUNE CARTER 33/1 Uttoxeter 4.40
Looks overpriced to me. Related to two bumper winners and the yard is 3 from 5 at the track. Worth a dabble.

Yes, quite a task on for us today! As is my usual form, I'm tipping early strikes. After watching a replay of the performance at Ripon in the season opener there, I have to go with Felix de Vega in the 2.10. OK, that was on much softer ground than will be experienced today, but the horse has won on better, and that performance at Ripon was outstanding.

Looking for a Norton winner - scratching my head at the mo.
I have to say looking down the card I'm not taken with much more right now, so on course chat will give us the clues, I hope.

Couple of early market movers of note, Biodynamic steaming in and also Ian Fleming.
Western Hymn has drifted slightly.

I still cannot believe we are getting this good weather.

Good Luck all, have a great day!

US Army Ranger is already very short for the Derby- will he be even shorter come this evening?

Quicker ground today but it doesn't look a strong race, you'd want him to do it fairly well if you're looking for a Derby winner. Interesting form line through Sandown 3rd High Grounds to gauge it.
 
Afternoon all.

In the Vase,no.4 carries the colours of which past Classic Winner?

The owner also ran three horses in the same years Derby...any ideas who they were?
