    I'm not having a good day either. I'm trying to figure out if I'm on non-triers or if the jockeys are getting it badly wrong tactically.

    I need either Special Meaning or Clayton in the good handicap at Hamilton tonight to get me out of jail.

    Haven't put one up for a while, but i thought that Hab Reeh absolutely scooted up last week and it usually runs well on its next run when it hits form. Captain Scooby has dropped to a very nice looking mark after a good run from 7lb wrong lto, looks the likely danger to me. 8.40 Hamilton.

    Not posted here , fancy 4 at Hamilton

    7.35 Special Meaning 3/1 betvic
    2/2 at course , won listed race in a decent time lto and only a 1lb higher than when btn 3/4 Lengths on seasonal debut on penultimate run in a handicap where 2nd , 4th , 5th and 6th have all won since.

    8.05 Centre Haafhd ew 11/2

    5L behind New Bidder lto on seasonal return and finishing time decent enough , on same mark and has a CD win

    8.40 Captain Scooby ew 11/2

    Same mark as last two runs and although long losing run , has at least shown a bit of encouragement.

    9.10 Bunce ew 16/1

    Last run was a decent speed fig for the grade , now joined perrat who does well here.
    Has been campaigned at 7f+ in career but stats alot better from 5-6f.record at 5f reads 42232 (3 places from 5)

    Good luck

    A tad unlucky i think, both trade odds on!

    Mount Athos takes a drop in class and is currently favourite for the 2.05 at Newbury.

    However it doesn't look any less competitive than his race 2 back at Meydan and I just don't trust him.

    I much prefer backing Battalion EW @ 4/1 as I can't see anyway he wont be placed. He was very impressive a last time out and looks like a horse going places unlike Mount Athos.

    Montiridge in the Lockinge. The drying ground could be against the fav and it's a decent each way race.

    Starlight Serenade in the last at Thirsk. Tracker horse who should appreciate a step up to a mile. Dwelt at the stalls first time out before flying home over 7f.

    Parbold (2.55) is better than these.
    Set a modest early pace in the Free Handicap, and was consequently swamped by lesser horses. Unlikely to make the same mistake twice.

    Not into listening to dogs bark but Curzon Line hasn't been seen since November after failing to act on a bit of a bog at Southwell. Back for a summer campaign I was told he is expected in the 3.40pm at Bangor.

    Backed 1.45 Staffhoss ew at 25/1 last night

    Inexperienced rider riding last 3 runs over a mile but best form at 7f. Won maiden at distance and went close off 10lb higher marks than this 67 it's dropped back down to , Joe fanning back on board , could be nicely weighted to run well

    one of the most inept rides of the season, very unlucky not to win

    Not often I'd have a go at a jockey, but - on a horse without an electric change of gear - that was a ****-poor effort from Tylicki.
