Selections for tomorrow

Lingfield
1.50 Diable d'or 4-1

Ran well in a decent maiden at Newbury and I hope this one can step up on that, would not need to do so too much to take this.
4.00 Spiriting 11-4 next best
As all horses in these colours do the horse has a mark from it's days with Luca and is now with Roger, that tells you that many will be likely able to run better than their existing mark.

Kempton
6.20 Bunbury 3-1 Nap

Handicapped at a mark that looks reasonable and hoping this one can make it tell early.
7.20 Tournament 5-1
Too short and hopefully will drift but this horse if recapturing his older form could go well. Money has come for it which is reassuring.
8.20 The Big Lad 4-1
Back on the all weather after a disappointing run in a decent enough turf handicap

Good luck all
 
Confident about Harry today chaps, apologies expected Stick to post last night but sadly hes had other much more important things to deal with.
He needed the last run and had a real good blow after. He was keen and jumping first circuit was a bit sloppy as the jockey didnt push him at the hurdles which is what he needs. Down in grade, will try and get some cover and hold onto him as long as possible so he gets home as slight concern he doesnt quite get the trip. Be very dissapointed if he isnt traveling best into the home turn and its whether he can see it out.

Appreciate the info, its not a horse i would touch purely based on watching it run for myself, it seems a bit of a donkey but you and Stick both, have always been forthcoming and honest when its come to your horses. And if you say you're confident of a decent run then thats good enough for me to part with a couple of quid. Hope he gets round safe and comes back (preferably to the winners enclosure) in one piece. Best of luck to you and enjoy your day (if you're going that is)
 
A Royal yankee today!

Bonhomie 2.50 Lin 4/1
Forecaster 5.15 Ham 6/1
Final Choice 5.15 Lin 7/1
Labyrinth 6.50 Kem 11/2

Just singles and doubles
 
Bit of a donkey.... nice. He's off 119 today and down in grade for the first time. If he was off 115 i would say its a big bet but hopeful he can go very close off 119.

Sorry Don didn't mean any offence. All I mean is that if I didn't know anything about the horse and I'd purely just watched him run the last few times having had no info, he's not one i'd be going anywhere near or expecting anything from. However thanks to your good self sharing as you do, we get a whole different perspective of his runs and his expectations and for that I'm grateful.
 
Nothing against Harristown but ANGUS GLENS 9-2 was withdrawn from last night 8.05 at Southwell very late on when well backed. He was obviously already entered in today's 4.25 so clearly this is felt as a better option. Add to that he had a good reappearance 3 weeks ago. Has my money.
