    2nd last bet of the day for me and my best bet of the day.

    Having a max win bet on Anytime Will Do in the 2.50 Huntingdon around 2.34 at the minute. Very classy horse and should be far too good for today's opposition. Max win bet for me without a doubt.

    Last bet of the day for me.

    4.25 Sedgefield. Jokers And Rogues, around 2.54'ish. Laying this pretty hard. I'll either get out ok for the day, or bad day at the office!

    Looking forward to the hurdle debut of Red Force One tomorrow at Kempton [2.25]

    As flat form looked useful last summer when winning 3 on the bounce, and is now with Paul Nicholls.

    Each Way @ 10-1 [Bet 365] BOG

    1.50 lingfield, Pink Flamingo around 2.62. Having a very decent win bet on this. 2.62 looks a nice price to me.

    2.25 Lingfield, Red Phoenix, around 2.3 at the minute. I honestly can't believe this horse is such a low price. I'm laying it hard and I'll be very surprised if it wins.

    I'm backing a couple of horses with excellent win strike rates tomorrow at Newcastle. In the Eider, I like Daklondike but the weight might stop him, and Mysteree may return to his best form but that still might not be enough. However, West Of The Edge gets the nod. He was second last year on a three pound higher mark. His chasing record is a healthy 5/23, so somewhere between 20-25 percent. I reckon with the rub of the green and a clear round of jumping he'll win tomorrow for trainer Richard Newland. He has the right profile.

    Aristo Du Plessis can win the 3:55. He has an excellent strike rate, (9/25), near enough 40 percent, won over 93K in prize money. Tomorrow looks another opportunity to notch up another victory.

    A good Frenchie from Macaire's yard, now with the good doctor, Richard Newland, called Rose Sea Has, having its first run over here in Kempton's 2:25. Worth a bet I reckon.

    Wissahickon has all the hallmarks of a certainty in the Winter Derby, especially with Court House to guarantee a good pace. However, there's 21K for 2nd today, and with Wm Buick in the plate, to ehsure he's ridden more judiciously, I expect him to turn arond the place form with Big Country. F/c currently pays around 11/2.

    In the Hever Sprint, Gorgeous Noora has any amount of speed and, while she was never expected to beat Kachy latest, still showed enough toe to cover the first 5f in course standard time.
    7/2 best.

    My head is all over the shop with today's racing - and that's without even looking at the AW card.

    I've chopped and changed in nearly every race so I probably should have left betting alone altogether today.

    As it is, I've landed on three bets, none of which were my original selections, and I just know the original selections will win! I let the prices put me off them.

    Anyway, I've backed:

    Eider - Kilkishen
    Dovecote - DDC ew
    888 Chase - Rather Be

    and added Pagero (Adonis) and Daklondike (Eider).

    I mentioned Pagero in the long shot thread. That's just sickness insurance. I only just noticed Daklondike's price. I'd thought he'd be about 5/1. He's got a lot to do on my figures but this extra trip might bring about a lot of improvement.

    4th!

    Never really looked comfortable, did run on suggesting might need further but probably more importantly softer ground

    Gulliver (6.55) was runner-up to 2 smart horses in Island Of Life and Kachy, and has been thwated 3 times since by an indifferent pace and an outside draw. Neither should be a problem today and he ought to win this cosily.
    3/1 generally.
    Though unexposed, Sir ThomasGresham is a conceivable danger, and I've taken the f/c to cover that contigency. (20.52 b365)
