Saturday May 19th -

Just a quick rundown today because it's getting on.

BANGOR

345 CHICAGO ALLEY
2 poor efforts hurdling recently, hoping return to chases at winning track might ignite the flame again. Record here 4F211, the latest win coming off 8lb higher.

DONCASTER

745 BRONZE ANGEL
Trainer 3 winners from last 8 runners, Jockey rode 1393/1 double yesterday, progressive sort, 2/2 on AW over the winter. Respectable in higher grade on unsuitable ground last time.

NEWBURY

200 IBICENCO
Smart Performer in Germany and France, Second to Campanologist last time out in a group 1, this looks a nice event to kick off his UK campaign with a win.

230 WHAILEYY
Blinkers have put this one on the upward track, just beaten a short head last time out but up 5lb for the trouble. Better jockey today and every chance in very open event.

305 REWARDED
When will this one stop winning? Up in weight and trip but this one is still relatively unexposed and looks a big price on face value.

340 FRANKEL
It's more a case of how far he wins by really, no each way value either with Strong Suit taken out. Nothing will get to the first 2. Betfair are going 3 places in their place market so maybe looking for which comes third is the value effort, i see someone has backed Frankel to place at 1000 for £3, I'll be honest pal I don't fancy your chances of getting that matched! Ha Ha. If they go off rapid, Bullet train to place(top3) at 2.76 might be worth a squeak. Otherwise add the monster to your multiples, or just sit back, watch and enjoy.

NEWMARKET

215 NOBLE MISSION
Before the main attraction, little brother sets out for a home win, This should be between him and Thought Worhty, and will give us a clue on Imperial Monarch's Derby chances also, the other interesting one is Prince Alzain, who should like this trip as a grandson of Street Cry. But there was a lot to take from NM win here on Guineas day as he met a bit of trouble in running and still had plenty to see off the opposition.

245 ALEJANDRO
This is a chancy play really, on best form price is huge, decent run sandwiched by 2 poor efforts recently, but should be happy with quicker ground. Will need to be at best.

320 SAIGON
Best form of Listed victory against multiple Group winner Caspar Netscher is the best on offer here, the problem with this boy is he is not the most straightforward ride. They have a very good pilot on board today and he won't need to be better than he already has been to win this.

355 BOWDLERS MAGIC
Another big price dart really. Jockey and Trainer teamed up for a 20/1 double yesterday. On a mark of 85 today, having twice won off 84 that looks pretty well treated to me. Kept fit over winter with spins over the jumps.

540 SURAJ
Needed first run and that race is working out pretty well. Second time up made mincemeat of a weaker field. Probably doesn't travel the best, but a patient jockey on today, this is better than last time up and we'll really get a view of how good he is today.

THIRSK

255 MASKED DANCE
Back to best last week, has strung back to back wins before but can also blow out. Yard has his going well at present so hoping for the former. Open race.

405 SINGEUR / LUI REI
I'm taking 2 against the field here, the first won fresh last year and looks on a decent mark, the second won last time out and had form franked at York meeting in the week, not seen HT ride for Robert Cowell before so that could be interesting too.

UTTOXETER

655 OVERLAW
Very good reappearance after nearly a year off has seen him elevated to career high mark. Will be disappointed if beaten by my namesake in this race but I'm taking my chance here.

730 WORTH A KING'S
3/5 at this trip and has won here. Been struggling to get this one right, backed 2 runs 4th and 2nd, left alone last time out and won, typical. Was a 100+ rated hurdler when giving best so still very well in for that.

800 LITTLE CARMELA
Best form by far come here with 1 win 1 second in 2 C&D spins. Back to same mark as that second place here in October and first run for in form yard.

That's that for today, hopefully 1 or 2 winners on here somewhere. We had a decent day again yesterday so hopefully can carry on through the weekend.

I'm just having one bet tonight, 2-1 Bayern.

Good Luck and Happy Punting
