Evening sportsfans!! we did slightly better toay with the NB getting chinned at the death but running a very gallant race,however as we all know,bookies dont pay out on gallant losers!! hopefully i've found a couple little gems tomorrow with the first being marco botti's 3-y-o GREY MIRAGE 2.10 LINGFIELD (6/1 william hill NAP) he did finish behind todays likely favourite george guru last time out but gets a healthy pull in the weights as the winner has gone up in the ratings where as the handicapper has been kind for a change & dropped ours a few pounds.he does like to make the running & whilst he wasn't hassled up front he never really had things his own way that day where as tomorrow will be a totally different ball game.his shrewd yard have also applied the cheekpieces for the first time tomorrow and here is another little stat,since this horses last run the stable have had 14 runners..yielding 7 winners & 3 placings!! yet the 14 runs prior to that run yielded... ZERO winners from 14 runners!! so that just shows you how the stable have hit form over the past couple of weeks.our NB selection goes in the 3.50 at lingfield in the shape of PUTIN.ridden by the very capable 5lb claimer leonna mayor who in all fairness woudn't look out of place on a paris catwalk!! if hayley turners nickname is the head turner then young leonnas nickname must be the crowd turner!! enough of the fairer sex & back to our selection whos just been touched off in his last three runs however i think hes far more suited to this 7f intermediate trip & seems to go exceptionally well for his young jockey whos 5lb claim can tip the scales in his favour although i dont think it will be to long before young leonna will have ridden out her claim to be honest as like most apprentices she doesn't get put on the highest quality animals but if there in with a shout she can certainly get a decent tune out of them.our third selection was at the now abandoned haydock.

ADVISED BETS:

2pts win GREY MIRAGE 2.10 LINGFIELD (6/1 NAP)
2pts win PUTIN 3.50 LINGFIELD (S.P. NB)
1pt win double

TOTAL STAKE: 5pts

it certainly is hard work trying to turn a profit at the minute & i took a real battering personally today on the laying front but we live to fight another day.i hope you find my blog interesting & informative & i wish you the best of luck with whatever you decide for your money tomorrow & happy punting!! :-)
