    Good morning;

    It won't take rocket scientist to work out my first advised bet today as I've done nothing but go on about him all season.
    IBN KHALDUN is a colt with massive potential and having missed the break and run very green on his debut. He has strengthened up nicely for that run and looks in fantastic shape on the gallops. He is expected to win as he pleases today and I'm sat in a nice position having got a good chunk on this at 1.9.

    The 2nd bet today is in the 2.20 at Leicester and I know that Henry Cecil's think alot of Burn The Breeze . Having needed the run on debut she has come on nicely and breezed very well with Crystany last week. She will be very hard to beat.

    Finally I can report that James Tollers Swinbrook (3.40 - Ling) worked fantastic on Saturday morning and looked better than he has all season. He looked very well in himself and is a horse that has the ability. He has slipped to an attractive mark and it could be the day to catch him. At 6/1 he is definitely worth a stab each way.

    On a sadder note, It is unfortunate to pass on that Bee Eater broke down badly last week and its unknown whether she will stand at present. It's a sad loss for the Prescott team who have already had 3 of their stable stars go wrong this year. Hopefully they will be able to save her as a broodmare as she was a very promising filly.

    Good Luck

    Chris

    IBN KALDOUR is pretty short Chris? this maiden is normally won by a mid 80's RPR horse.

    I've had a dabble on Kings Wonder at the prices win & place. Good luck with yours anyway, I hope it wins for you.

    yep 1700 @ 1.9

    but bottled near off and laid off 1400 of it at 1.48

    couldn't believe the 3k that came up at evens in running, and to the guy who put up 1900 last night at 1.9, you are top of my christmas card list, if your female I would marry as well.

    Biggest bet ive had in ages and delighted to see Frankie ride with such confidence and win as he liked without even needing to take his hands off the reigns or chang his hands.

    Pity the other two lost but I've had a good day,

    Still won't feel half as nice as about 14 months time taking £100 off Rory, now that day I am looking forward to :laughing:

    Got another one of theirs to hype up now;

    he's worked very well lately and is called Plavius, not sure if plan is to run this season but he's a beautiful horse.

    Ibn Kaldoun was too short for me to bet on - but I bet both the second and the third e/w at 9s and 10s respectively, as I couldn't make up my mind which to do for the forecast - which would have paid v little anyway! - and that was my best result of the day in fact :what: having lost a bit on City Hustler, and had several forecasts not quite come off and all my win bets came 2nd

    That bet looking a bit dodgy at the moment, Rory!

    Thought I'd resurrect this; I may be on a hiding to nothing with this but I'm hoping that Albabilia will get her act together and prove me right after all. Any news Chris?

    Albabilia hasn't been showing much on the gallops and hasn't grown an inch, biggest problem is, she is about a group 3 filly max, unfortunately we all know what Clive will aim her at.

    Nahoodh is in sparkling form but will improve for Saturday. She also needs at least the mile. I think she will place on Saturday, doing her best work at the finish.

    Surprised to hear she hasn't grown ~ she struck me as being a particularly scopey type at two; it's possible that Clive's tilting at windmills will see her fluke a place in a Group 1 at some stage, and we know what that'll do for her official rating :P

    I'd say that the word that Nahoodh would come on for the run must have been quite a lot stronger than that - they couldn't give her away in the ring. She opened at 3, went off 5 and there was plenty of 11/2 available on her as well.
    Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess.

    False face must hide what the false heart doth know.

    Nahoodh looked terrible in the paddock, cant believe she ran, looked unfit, woolly as anything as well.

    Certainly looked dreadful and if I was the owner I wouldn't have been impressed with my horse turned out like that.

    Channon's horses are running crap at the mo, and I think he has been too bloody easy on them, they all look unfit and not well in their coats.

    Francome thought she looked head and shoulders above anything else in the race. A proper three year old is the phrase he used.

    Well not saying she didnt look the horse with the most scope, but she was far from fit and was as woolly as a sheep.

    How important do you think it is that a horse has come into their Summer coat ?
