    Happy Birthday Nass !

    The Nap for today :

    3.45 Bath Athwaab - 3 or 4 front runners in the race so they might burn themselves all out, but hoping this one manages to prevail.

    Cheers Trevez

    8.35 Southwell

    Prices Lane 16/1


    This is something I've noticed as opposed to a selection. Mick Easterby is a canny trainer and when the money is down its something I generally take heed to. This lightly raced 4 y-o has shown glimpses of ability and considering the sire's record on the AW and the money I am willing to invest a few small quid on this filly's AW debut with the talented James Sullivan on board in this low grade contest.

    Getting nearly two stone from the odds on favourite there must be a good chance that Nass backed that first winner!

    Always back the outsider of 3 is the old adage :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    That's a shame, would have been a cracking start mate, the lad's riding out of his skin currently!

    Looks a shoe in for the jockeys championship this year now with Moore out. <cheers>

    Yes, i actually have done a small one for his remaining rides. Has got some cracking rides today.

    Yes, shoe in I would say as long as he doesnt get injured. Gutted as one of Danbos mates told me to back him way back when he was very silly odds of 50-1 plus.

    Don: Nice one, my mates on him at 16s too. Hanagan has always been clear that he wont be going flat out this year for the title but SDS will!

    Good luck mate

    balls. Typical my 40/1 shot finishes just outside the money. Jockey gave him far too much to do and he'll go into my tracker as his best form is with give in the ground.

    7.30 Southwell Daaweitza 12/1


    Daaweitza is a C+D winner who hasn't really been at his best recently for Brian Ellison's yard. However, he is now 7lb lower than winning at Pontefract last year and 2lb higher than here and with the eye catching booking of Silvestre De Souza I am hoping for a good run at a nice price

    Makes up for earlier! Big thanks to bet365 for opening up at such a ridiculous price

    Morning all! No tips from me today (thank goodness you all cry!), but thought I’d share with you a picture that appeared on Twitter this morning.

    What better way to start the day?!
