    I was at Catterick recently and backed KIANS DELIGHT NAPruns Pontefract today, who won a lot easier than margin suggests, so he's the one for me today . What a horrible performance from Debussy yesterday, one to put a pen through in future.

    Ardent: I was at Catterick when Kians Delight won and also backed the horse HOWEVER he never won easily, as far as i can remember there were about 5 or 6 vying for the win within the final furlong and he won a head bobber with less than a length or so covering the first 5 home mate!!

    I would also say he much prefers cut in the ground which there was on that Wednesday afternoon mate! Good luck though

    Worth noting that first season US sire HARD SPUN has a 50% strike rate with his 2yos this year in the UK. He has 2 runners in the maiden @ Newmarket - ALMAAS and WAAFID.

    Also very sad to have just read on Twitter that SLIP ANCHOR has died at the age of 29.

    Gdc to my eye he won more comfortably than the margin. Thanks for your advice though I appreciate it. I will back him anyway he should be a fair price. Cheers

    Rounders/ROTO: You will be pleased to know that the price on Captain Royale has tumbled. 16s into 7s and 8s in places, a little bit of 12 still available <cool>

    Ardent: No worries, he has been put up to his highest mark but it doesnt look a strong race. Sure you'll get a run for your money too.

    Where are you based? Do you get free tickets? If not keep your eyes peeled on here as myself and Danbo often get tickets for up here mate <cool>

    That's the Hugh Taylor impact Gary. Unfortunately it doesn't reflect it's chances. I took 20's last night but i'm not on for a lot of money.

    Trying a new site out lads that dooie put up on fugees. A guy on there claims to have info about Mahadee in the 5.40 at Newmarket. I took the 14's so fingers crossed. Done an each way double and the each way singles with Captain Royale.

    The bumper at Perth looks very interesting. The top weight will have to be good to win with the double penalty. Twisters horse looks to have attracted a few quid and has a nice pedigree. An interesting race to ponder and I'll give it some thought at lunch before deciding whether there is anything in there worth backing.

    It'll drift back out before the off. Hugh's always do unless the yard think they are ready to go in.

    Afters all

    1st the text from the main man

    "Dano my boyo youve got to Pickapocketortwo runs in the 2m 4f novice hurdle ive put my very own artful dodger on as Ruby is still on hols (Oddy if you work as hard as the champ you could have more hols, now button it) He won his maiden over 3 miles at Sligo last month, so the drop back in trip here is not ideal. However, he is in good form at home and will like this track. Hopefully, we will get more rain as he would prefer a bit of cut in the ground, so fill them boots big fella"


    Next

    I've been following his progeny for quite a while. They also have a very good record first time out. Both look to have decent chances today

    Quite sad indeed but thankfully Slip Anchor got to live to a ripe old age
