    She wasn't wining out of turn anyway! At the furlong pole I thought she would win comfortably. But job done anyway! She's a dual listed winner at 2 and 3 now so worth a good few bob.

    Sandown:

    3.55: Three-year-olds have won three of the last four renewals with Sir Michael Stoute having trained two of those winners. Sir Michael is represented by three-year-old SHAMACAM on this occasion. 5/1

    Manifestation looks the most interesting horse to me at Sandown in the second race. A half-brother to Sergeant Cecil, he looks all stamina himself and shaped well at Newbury last time, staying on well in a steadily-run 12f race. Has to be better at this trip and whilst he's not the only exposed horse in the race, I'm sure he's up to winning a handicap from his current mark.

    Fine shout, loosehead! Unfortunately I didn't follow you because just about every other horse in the race also seemed to be fancied, and that's how it looked turning into the straight, but your fellow won it well in the end.

    I've gone for a speculative multiple bet on the O'Meara runners at York, which all seem to have a chance.

    I can't work out the big race of the day but I'm looking forward to watching it.

    Some really tight handicaps today which I find tempting. I am investing all of the profits from Gearoid's pick yesterday in attempt at glory or bust.

    Seal Rock 3.20 Newmkt Y Alt Elusive Prince
    Fathsta 3.40 York Y Cover Hoof It
    Noble Citizen 3.50 Ascot Y Alts. Our Jonathan, Hawkeyethenoo
    Illustrious Prince 5.20 York Y

    All ew singles plus an ew Yankee plus fcasts

    Certainly gives an interest. Particularly like the last named

    Indeed.

    Have they added crowd noise to the commentary at York? Seemed a bit false to me.

    Illustrious Prince came 5th. I needed a place for a four figure profit.
