    , fair enough.

    Today's runners:

    Ascot 2.00

    SOCIETY ROCK - Corinthia Knight (26.1) convincing winner of both his races but difficult to know what he's beaten so far.

    SOCIETY ROCK - Tangled (5.2), out of a Black Minnaloushe mare and a half-brother to two winners, one of them, Faithful Creek, was a winner of a 7f. Epsom maiden and ran well in a very competitive Newbury nursery, finishing 7th. beaten 3 lengths and returning a RPR of 106.

    Pontefract 2.15

    LETHAL FORCE - Admiral Spice (28.4), out of a Dansili mare and a half-brother to three decent winners.

    Brighton 5.05

    MAZAMEER - Milton Road (8.6), as you can see a very late foal but that didn't stop him running well to be just touched off over course and distance last week. Having his third run today.

    SOCIETY ROCK - Vegas Boy (30.4), out of a Common Grounds mare and a half-brother to four winners, two of them useful.

    Cheers Col, I do always look in, apologies for not always commenting. TOday is probably the day we know a bit more about this Corinthia Knight albeit a small race.

    Society Rock backers look to be holding the right slips in my mind at the moment.

    Today we have:

    Cork 2.55

    DAWN APPROACH - Angelique (13.2) is the first foal of an Oasis Dream mare who in her racing career failed to win in four attempts in France.

    SWISS SPIRIT - Spirit Power (5.3) having his third run, in both his previous races, at Dundalk, he has finished runner-up to Sirici.

    Thirst 1.55

    MOST IMPROVED - Just For The Craic (25.3) is having his third run, finished a moderate third at Beverley last time.

    RED JAZZ - Progressive Jazz (12.3) ran in the same Beverley race, green and finished well behind 12/12, Karl Burke has a reputation for a huge improvement in his horses for their second run.

    Doncaster 5.50

    RED JAZZ - Mutanaaseq (26.3) on debut at Bath he was slowly away and didn't have the clearest of runs but just got up on the post, difficult to know the strength of the form as the placed horses haven't re-appeared yet.

    That's a bit skewed but I think you can see the situation.

    Impressive win for Havana Grey, by FSS HAVANA GOLD, as an aside I thought the 33/1 shot Shay C ran well, matching strides with favourite until fading inside final furlong.

    At Windsor there was a comfortable win for Declarationoflove who is by FSS Declaration Of War.

    Today:

    Leicester 6.00

    HAVANA GOLD - Ghepardo (30.4) close third, only beaten a length by dual-winner Rock Of Estonia, when making debut at Bath.

    LETHAL FORCE - Queen Of Kalahari (25.2), fifth beaten three lengths on debut at Newmarket, both the second and fourth in that race have been narrowly beaten since.

    RED JAZZ - Arabian Jazz (25.3) some support on debut at Chelmsford but managed to unseat her rider when leaving the stalls awkwardly.

    HAVANA GOLD - Marchingontogether (29.4) is the first foal of an Avonbridge mare.

    Today:

    Chester 1.50

    HAVANA GOLD - Floss The Hoss (13.4) showed some promise on her debut at Beverley but didn't really step up on that when fancied at Brighton last time.

    HAVANA GOLD - Treasuring (6.2) is the first foal of an Excellent Art mare.

    Today's runners:

    Chester 4.05

    SOCIETY ROCK - Dahik (6.3) very respectable debut at Doncaster, showed plenty of speed and only beaten half-a-length in second.

    MAZAMEER - Milton Road (8.6) becoming rather exposed but has run with some credit in all his three races.

    HAVANA GOLD - Our Man In Havana (6.4) was keen on debut when finishing fourth at Lingfield.

    HAVANA GOLD - Floss The Hoss (13.4) non-runner with vet's certificate yesterday when her stablemate won the race, obviously has made a miraculous recovery.

    Catterick 2.05

    SOCIETY ROCK - Suanas (10.3) showed very little on debut at Beverley.

    Very informative maiden coming up at 6.05. The Haggas horse could be very good but his horses are never fully would up. I've taken way too much 6/1 e/w.

    That was the danger. Ertiyad given an educational ride under hands and heels and just fails to get up. She could be very good.

    Is Kieren Fallon with Haggas again ?
    They had some autumn last year and APOB would never have gone to Chester without him.

    I've no idea where he is. The 2.05 in the Curragh tomorrow sees Ger Lyons unleash his best 2yo. It's a bigger price then I expected. Weld is apparently is bemoaning little ammo hi has this season so he's a false favourite. Elliot's will outrun its 10/1 price but impossible for them to really know what they have.

    Today's runners:

    Curragh 2.10

    RED JAZZ - Ragtime Red (30.4) slightly hampered but still a disappointing effort last time at Navan after showing some ability on debut at Dundalk.

    LETHAL FORCE - Would Be King (24.2) out of a Smarty Jones mare and a half-brother to two decent performers.

    RED JAZZ - Urban Beat (14.4) first foal of a Blues Traveller mare.

    Ascot 4.35

    DAWN APPROACH - Haddaf (1.2) very nice debut at Leicester showing plenty of speed and only beaten a neck into second by the 1/3 favourite Never Back Down

    MAXIOS - Zabaletaswansong (18.2) sire was a smart staying 2-y-o and half-brother to Arc winner Bago, his Rock Of Gibraltar dam has only produced a poor maiden to date.

    Sounds from Colin Keane's ATR interview that Black Sails is Lyons' best two year old.
    Aftertiming I know but worth a mention.
