I’m sweet on Ben Case’s Fern Hill in the River Don today (12/1 B365).

He started his hurdling career with a perfectly respectable run behind the now 144-rated Third Time Lucki, over what looks...

The Thyestes is one of those great Irish handicap chases that I love, but have an incredibly patchy record in.

I backed Brahma Bull earlier in the week, based on his not being given remotely a...

The Macon Lugnatic was an early tracker horse for me. Was disappointing first time up, though Pauling’s yard was in a bit of a rut at the time, and I’m hoping for a better run this time. General 14/1...

I thought Brahma Bull was very considerately-handled behind Minello Indo at Navan, and give him a right squeak against ABP tomorrow - 15/2 taken.

Have had a pop at Zyon (5/1) in the opener at Ascot.

He is clearly fragile, but there’s reason to believe from the limited form he has on offer, that he’s got in lightly here off 124.

I think Ibleo (7/2) is going to be hard to beat in the Cheltenham 2m handicap chase. He has been let in here very lightly off 137, imo - still a progressive horse.

Disgrace of a ride from Power. Thorough stayer he’s rideen for a turn of foot. Idiotic is the most charitable description I can apply.

Seems sorted now, reet.

Anyone else experiencing a delay on PP settling bets today?

Had the same pair in an each-way Yankee.

Had a decent run of late - the wheels were due to come springing off.

Cannot for the life of me understand why Mrs Hyde is as big as 3/1 (Powers) tomorrow.

I think she is an absolute cert.

Plenty to like about Main Fact’s form chances in a Stayers, but he’s been on the go a long time now, and you’d be wanting them to stick him away soon. The yard would need to try and resist the...

They looked fu*cked with a circuit-and-a-half to go.

No double on those, DO, but healthy-enough singles (Main Fact too), and the tricast in the Snow Leopardess race, so a very handy day all round.

LIT cost me a treble with SFS and Notebook, but you...

Long way home from the back of the last at Haydock, isn’t it? Commodore also off the front-end throughout, and maybe just got tired.

Outer of the three for me in the Ascot Hurdle.

Even though she might be rejuvenated by the move to Nicholls, I just can’t trust Laurina after a massively disappointing last season, and Call Me...

Too cryptic for me, pal. What does it mean?

I thought it took a bit of getting yesterday, Euro, and reckon it will be soft enough for him.

Edit: I should add, it’s a visual assessment only - no idea what yesterday’s times might suggest.

My strongest bet of the day is First Flow in the 2m handicap chase at Ascot (9/2 in a couple of spots).

Trip and ground are perfect for him, and Kim Bailey continues to be in flying form.

No Brewinupastorm in the PP Gold Cup, Paul.

FWIW, I backed Slate House for the race yesterday. Not one to entirely trust, but FTO the time to get him, imo.

That went well.

Have written-off the Thomas Darby Champion Hurdle bet, but will avail myself of the odds-against today as recompense. He is favoured by the weights, has the most scope for progress, is on an...

Have taken 7/2 Aubusson at Ludlow (2:00). He's dropped to a chase mark of 135, Chester Williams knocks-off another 7lbs, and it's not so long ago he was running with credit in G1 hurdles at Auteuil.

I am a staunch advocate of Tiger Roll in the Cross-Country today. Seems significantly over-priced to me at double-figure odds.

I'm very sweet on Captain Buck's in second race at Newbury. Has fair form generally, but standout could be when splitting Bags Groove and Steely Addition (bolted-up yesterday), in an early novice...
