Sunday 5-5-13

Good Morning, a poor day all in all yesterday. Very much a favourites paradise, which doesn't particularly help me. Those that just follow the money will have been pretty happy with themselves, me with my hours of background work left feeling frustrated. But we move on as always. I've gone with Sky Lantern in the Guineas. I know HS beat her last time out but she was very green and that race was much weaker than this, if she is as green still she might find things happening a bit soon for her today, whereas I believe SL to be a top class filly and Hughsie is bound to be fired up after missing out on a big chance yesterday. I think the 2nd Hannon horse looks a big chance to make the frame as well, a massive jockey booking with the brilliant Olivier Peslier on board, and I'm putting Just the Judge for 3rd, my mate Steven is sitting on a 25/1 AP slip so fingers crossed for him, he needs it to pay the gas bill. So my quick summary for the Guineas

1. SKY LANTERN
2. MAUREEN
3. JUST THE JUDGE

Hot Snap will finish never nearer and then go on to win the Oaks.
