Evening sportsfans!! well a quiet day today after the hoy paloy of the cambridgeshire & the nap finishing where all decent e/w shot's finish...bloody fourth! :-( tomorrow start's the first day of a fresh month & let's start as we mean to go on...hopefully with a winner!!:-)

SPANISH PLUME 3.50 BATH (NAP)

this reg hollinshead trained gelding come's here just a pound above his last turf winning mark & can get his head back in front tomorrow.he's had feasable excuse's since & also notched a win on the a/w off a 2lb higher mark at kempton.he's been set some stiff task's this year off  mark's in the high 70's but showed he still retain's plenty of ability when running noble jack close at wolverhampton in july of this year.he ran a very solid race lto behind dolphin rock without doing enough to trouble the handicapper but also showing plenty of promise & it look's like the stable have purposly targeted this weak race to get him back in the winner's enclosure.
1.5pts E/W @ 16/1 (ladbrokes)

well not too much damage done today and our "mythical" bank now rest's at 110pts after deducting tomorrow's stake's.owing to the abandonment of hamilton tomorrow it only leave's us the bath card to go at on the flat.i dont even look at the jumps until after the november handicap so the newton abbot card was a no no for me but touchwood i think i've found us a decent one tomorrow.as alway's many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & good luck with whatever you decide for your money tomorrow.. :-)

Evening sportsfans!!! well not a great day yesterday,i got the draw completely wrong in the cambridgeshire & i think you can put a line through the form of all the high drawn horse's as they were never in it.onto today...

SHESHA BEAR 4.30 EPSOM (NAP)

this one epitomises the phrase "horses for course's" nine run's here at epsom,three win's & three place's already in the bag & i think another big run is on the card's now it's down to a managable mark.he did rattle up a hat trick last year which saw him rise 25lb in the h'cap which eventually took it's toll & only now is he down to a workable mark.he like's a bit of cut which according to going report's he will get & follower's can collect yet again!! :-)
1pt e/w @ 20/1 (bet365)

that conclude's the month of september with us sitting proudly on our "mythical" balance of 113pts!! many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & as alway's good luck with whatever you decide today.

evening sportsfans!!! and what an evening it is!! :-) i said it was the silly season but there's nothing silly about a 20/1 winner guys!!!
awesome day,biggest priced winner since i started writing the blog & am chuffed to bit's & very smug!!lol onto tomorrow & rather than take the easy way out i've decided to tackle the cambridgeshire so here are my thought's...

MIJHAAR 3.40 NEWMARKET

this roger varian trained gelding has a touch of class about him & i think he can go well from a decent draw tomorrow.so far he's filled the place's behind the like's of black spirit,gatewood,fury & dandino to name a few this season & there is no shame in that as they are all seriously smart performer's.the key with him though he's such a huge framed horse that i think he'll only be coming to himself about this time of year & this is still only the ninth run of his career & could still have improvement in him.neil callan take's the ride & he's a more than capable big race pilot & can bring home the money for follower's tomorrow.
2.5pts E/W @ 14/1 (ladbrokes)

well after today's monster haul our "mythical" bank now sit's at a bulging 120pts!!!!! deduct 5pts for tomorrow's stake's & that leave's us on a very tasty overnight balance of 115pts.there are a couple of other thing's that i like tomorrow including birdman & smarty socks but there's nothing else that i would consider as a "blog" selection apart from birdman if it came up really soft tomorrow.as alway's many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & good luck with whatever you decide for your money tomorrow & happy punting!!! :-) i'm out on the lash now to spread some love amongst the female population....if only i could study there "form" as well as the equine variety my life would be complete!!!!lol

Evening sportsfans!! well a real head scratcher today was to be honest, the nap running no race whatsoever & a real disappointment,i'm certainly not going to try & make excuses that aren't there so onto tomorrow & here are my thought's...

PENITENT 2.20 NEWMARKET (NAP)

this former lincoln winner want's bang on a mile,no more,no less & also love's to get his toe in & i think thing's might just drop right for him tomorrow as he need's a strong pace to run at & he's not really had that this season.you can excuse his last three run's as he had valid excuses,very highly tried in france followed by an impossible task at the weight's over in ireland then running a solid race over 7f lto.prior to this though he ran a blinder under his optimum condition's in the bet365 mile & a repeat of that can see him go close tomorrow.
1pt E/W @ 20/1 (boylesports)

just the one bet tomorrow as at this time of year i like thing's to settle down & let the weather calm down a bit to be honest.even now the going report's are way off what they should be & it is basically stiffing punter's & the sooner someone does something about it the better.our "mythical" bank now sit's at 95 pts after today's blank,take away 2pts for tomorrow's stake's leave's us on an overnight balance of 93pts.i will still be putting my thought's up for all to sea but at this time of year the best advice i can give anyone is unless you really fancy something then keep to minimal stake's as it really is the silly season for result's.speaking of silly season the cambridgeshire consolation race take's place tomorrow & i think switzerland can run a big race @ around 50/1,ive still got a few more video's to watch regarding the race & that's the only reason it hasn't been put down as a blog selection.many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & as always good luck with whatever you decide for your money tomorrow & happy punting!! :-)

Evening sportsfans!! well a god awful day today in all fairness, hence just the one bet & our lowest stake's since the blog started. the nap ran like a dog & must be swerved until showing some interest.it really is the worst time of year for finding winner's, end of one season & the beginning of another & throw into that the bizarre weather recently & you really have got a challenge but we'll soldier on as i think i've found a couple tomorrow...

CAPTAIN ROYALE 3.30 PONTEFRACT (NAP)

he come's here on his last winning mark of 68 & more importantly will handle the give underfoot which can tip the scale's in his favour tomorrow.he also has C&D winning form which is another major advantage round here.there are valid excuses for his last three run's, the draw, the grade & then the trip thwarting him but all seem's in his favour tomorrow & can reward follower's at a nice price.
1.5pts E/W @ 12/1 (bet365)

ELAS DIAMOND 3.10 NEWMARKET (NB)

this jeremy noseda trained 4-y-o mare poses a real headache here but i think she could be well worth taking a chance on tomorrow.i've watched replay after replay of her last run & i'm convinced she'll be seen to better effect the softer the ground she get's,even though she ran blue bunting to a length in october 2010 on gd/sft i think she want's real deep ground & she might just get that tomorrow with all this rain & frankie takes over at HQ so that's a massive bonus.she's owned by the newsells park stud so they will be going hell for leather to get some black type into her & i think she can take this on the way to better thing's in the latter half of the season & she must of been showing more than a fair bit at home for them to persevere with her & follower's can reap reward's.
0.5pts E/W @ 20/1 (bet365)

0.5pts E/W double

just a couple of point's lost today so we're back on our original "mythical" bank balance of 100pts, deduct 5pts for tomorrow's stake's & that leave's us on an overnight balance of 95pts. there are a few other thing's that i like tomorrow including lost in the moment & boogie shoe's, i also like duchess dora but i'm a bit concerned about the trip.that just about sum's up my thought's on tomorrow's racing & if you like what you've read why not give me a R/T? alternativly why not let me know what you fancy as i'm alway's open to some friendly banter!! :-) many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & as alway's happy punting!!!

Evening sportsfans!!! well not a bad day at all considering the nap got chinned,however it did manage to hold on for second to reward follower's with some place money.the nb striker torres was a non runner & the other two that got a mention,duster (won 9/2) & mostly bob (2nd 9/1) both running fine races so all in all a satisfactory day's work.enough of today & onto tomorrow's thought's...

ALKIMOS 4.15 GOODWOOD

this godolphin inmate get's into this race after being dropped 3lb since his last run when not staying the trip in the ebor.however that just scratches the surface of his true potential as he's got some serious back class,the weight drop see's him get into 0-100 races as opposed to facing the top handicapper's rated 100 plus & he can take advantage tomorrow.frankie dettori get's the leg up which is a massive plus & he also handle's some cut in the ground as he showed when a fine fourth off a mark of 101 to camborne at ascot over this trip.prior to that he had a summer campaign in meydan with some excellent effort's behind the like's of songcraft & bronze cannon & he can reward follower's tomorrow.
1pt E/W @ 12/1 (widely available)

well after today's placing & the n/r we have a return of 7pts which put's us on a very healthy "mythical" bank of 102pts.deduct 2pts for tomorrow's stake's & that leave's us sitting pretty on an overnight balance of 100pts.there are quite a few other thing's that i like tomorrow but for one reason or another haven't made it into the blog,i'll list them below & i'll let you make your own mind's up & pick the bone's out of them!!! :-)
cardinal 4.50
handle's some cut & on a decent mark also jim crowley excel's round goodwood.
berberana 5.25
another that will love a bit of cut & is on a dangerous mark.
bescot springs 4.30
could get involved off this mark if fully wound up for tomorrow.
soprana 5.05
very well handicapped on old form & has been running well on the flat recently.
kuda huraa 8.20
just got ran out of it lto off this mark & can make amend's tomorrow.
athwaab 8.50
excellent draw & might just be able to give them the slip off a low weight.
leelu 9.20
very well handicapped & like's it here.
that just about sum's up my thought's on tomorrow's racing & as alway's many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & good luck with whatever you decide for your money tomorrow & happy punting!! :-)

Evening sportsfans!!!! and what a good evening it is after today's nap broke our losing streak & hit the bullseye at a juicy 8/1!! so it's fillet steak all round here at mallard tower's this evening! onto tomorrow and here are my thought's...

MAYBEME 5.10 BEVERLEY (NAP)

since her last victory, here at beverley over C&D, this neville bycroft trained mare has been stepped up in trip & she blatantly doesn't stay so a return to this trip can work the oracle for her tomorrow, she's twice won off this mark here at beverley & has also been placed here four times, all off mark's higher than she race's off tomorrow.more importantly she's versatile as far as the ground goes having acted with a bit of cut & on top of the ground in the past & with the current weather condition's this is imperative.she can get her head back in front here at her beloved beverley under a capable 5lb claimer.
1pt E/W @ 10/1 (bet365)

STRIKER TORRES 4.10 BEVERLEY (NB)

this is another beverley "specialist" who can take advantage of a slipping mark tomorrow.he's now 3lb below his last winning mark over C&D and also benefit's from a decent draw.however, recently he's been stepped up in trip & i dont think he get's much further than 7f to be honest so this return to C&D will be a welcome relief to him.regular pilot graham lee take's back over the reign's tomorrow & he can guide this one home for follower's.
1pt E/W @ 10/1 (ladbrokes)

0.5pt E/W double

well after today's nap romped home our "mythical" bank balance has swelled back to 100pts,deduct 5pts for tomorrow's stake's & we're now back on an overnight balance of 95pts.to be honest there's not much else that catches my eye tomorrow apart from duster over at folkestone who i think will go well & i think mostly bob can get involved off this mark at newton abbot.many thank's for taking the time to read my blog & sharing my thought's on tomorrow's racing and as alway's best of luck for whatever you decide for your money tomorrow & happy punting!! :-)
