Morning. No good yesterday. I have 4 today.
PRINCE OF PARIS 430 NEWBURY
Winner off 2lb higher when last in this class, been racing in higher. Martin Lane shows £38 Level Stake Profit when riding for Roger Ingram in last 12 months.
SPIRITUAL STAR 440 NEWMARKET
Broke his maiden at this track, winner over the trip as recent as January. Has it to prove this high in the weights but hasn't been far away last twice.
ONE MORE GO 620 HAMILTON
Relatively useful bumper performer. Trainer has 26% Strike Rate at this track in the last year. Only worry is he might find things happening a bit too quickly for him here.
MEADOWCROFT BOY 705 AINTREE
Looked useful at the start of his career, things levelled out but potentially there's an upturn arounfd the corner. Excuses 2 starts ago when pulled up amongst better company and stayed on eye-catchingly into second over a shorter trip last time out. Hills and Coral take no chances going 12s when there's 16s available (Lads, Victor)

Thursday 14 May
Just a quick one this morning. Me and York aren't generally friends financially so I tend to tread careful this week. But saying that I have one at York today that, to be frank, looks to good to be true.
PERFECT PASTURE 210 YORK (11/1 BetVictor/Paddy Power)
This one has won 7 of 17 career starts, not bad, 4 from 9 on turf, okay, but here's the doozy. When racing over 5f his record reads 11111. WOW. Add to that the glaringly eyecatching name of the man booked to steer, Ryan Moore, the 11/1 looks too big.
SILVERTON 510 PERTH (3/1 Bet365)
Consistent mare, she regularly runs her race. Mark creeping up but she's had a little rest and hopefully comes back wound up for this.
THE THIRD MAN 550 NEWMARKET (7/1 Coral)
Lightly raced, rarely far away. Form of last 2 efforts working out relatively well and could be a big player today if things fall right.
Good Luck and Happy Punting

Tuesday 12 May
Morning all, so yesterday was good. One bet, wins at 7/1 SP, or 8/1 if you were quick off the mark. I'm having 7 bets today, hopefully not giving back all of yesterday's profit though.
AMTIRED 245 SEDGEFIELD (7/1 widely available)
Not easy to win with but has made the frame on half his career starts. He's been competitive off much higher ratings than he finds himself running at now and was narrowly denied under today's jockey back in January. Has been given every chance and looks at least an each way steal to me.
PULL THE PIN 255 BEVERLEY (14/1 Victor, Hills, Sky)
Another tricky to win with, last win coming in 2013, but recorded 2 seconds and 3 thirds last summer on turf. Mark hasn't waivered a whole great deal and jockey is very capable. Might struggle to get lead he wants from extreme draw though.
DARING DRAGON 255 BEVERLEY (28/1 Bet365)
Nearly half that price with most other firms. Drawn well and could get a tow along from a couple that want to make the running. Often does his best work late on so if he's within striking distance it's not unthinkable that he could at least land a blow on the places.
MICK THE BOYO 330 LIMERICK (11/1 Bet365)
Still a maiden but wasn't far behind the progressive Bog War 2 starts ago. This looks slightly easier on paper than last time out when he finished 3rd, the second that day has gone on and won since so form looks reasonable.
ROBBEN 425 BEVERLEY (12/1 Ladbrokes/Bet365)
Didn't land a blow under similar conditions last time, but smaller field today should see him more involved. Mark looks workable albeit out of the handicap, has the beating of 1 of today's rivals so he shouldn't come last, there's form in his book that suggests he shouldn't be a maiden forever.
TEN TIMES BETTER 500 LIMERICK (8/1 Bet365)
Either she's a dodgepot, or she keeps bumping into 1 or 2 decent ones. For the most part horses that have beaten her have gone on and won or placed so form holds up. There's a Mullins/Mullins and a Elliot/Carberry prospects to consider today but the selection has experience in the book, and the in form Katie Walsh on board.
SPELLMAKER 835 CHELMSFORD (Widely 6/1)
35% at this trip on AW surfaces isn't a bad record, and he's been within 2 lengths of victory on 3 of 4 efforts at this track. The golden girl Hayley Turner resumes here affiliation with the hose and she's been riding very well of late.

Morning, I've had a bit of a break. It's tough doing this, having a full time job, and raising three kids. It leaves little time for Football Manager, the struggle is real people. Anyway, I just have 1 today, and it's speculative but we'll see how we go.
HOUDINI 255 WOLVERHAMPTON (Generally 8/1)
Dropped a couple of pounds for coming 5th on handicap debut, the second from that race has come out and won. Timmy Murphy takes the ride, looking for his first winner since switching from the jumps. He has met Longside and Arlechino's Leap previously and is on more favourable terms with both today.
Good Luck

Monday 4 May
Morning, did everyone enjoy the Guineas weekend. For me the biggest punting success of the weekend was watching a chap dressed as an inflatable duck beat a casually dressed gentleman in a race across floating punts in the river Cam. Anyway, here's today's treble.
EMILY DAVISON 155 BATH
A solid run down on the south coast last week, gets another chance today on similar ground under similar conditions and should certainly go close again.
ROUSAYAN 245 BEVERLEY
Close second a week ago in a race that has already thrown up a winner. Yard in very good form, especially with handicappers.
SAKHALIN STAR 320 BEVERLEY
Taking a chance that this one mirrors 2014. He needed a run in April before scoring in May off a 2lb higher mark than today. Seen overnight money.

Thursday 30 April
Morning, again some winners yesterday. I put up 11 in total and had a 12/1 winner so profit made again. I'm going to be honest, there's nothing I'm overly excited about today, my NAP would do well to sneak into a treble somedays and I only have 5 speculative ones in total. But we'll see how they go, if 1 scores we should be in profit so what's to lose?
LYRICAL THEATRE 715 PUNCHESTOWN (NAP)
For me she's the one to beat. She's the highest rated and gets weight from her closest rival, who she's already beaten off level weights. Sure I'm in no position sat here at my kitchen table to tell Ruby Walsh that he's on the wrong horse, but I think the prices reflect the jockeys not the horses here.
LUDO ET EMERGO 415 PUNCHESTOWN (Nb)
A good battling win at Limerick a month ago and form when out of the top end races is pretty good. Concern is the ground might be a bit quick, but If he can run his race then for me he can go close.
SILVER DIXIE 435 LINGFIELD (T)
C&D record is pretty good 124 (the 1 off today's mark, the 2 off 13lb higher, the 4 off 4lb higher) so the handicapper has presented him with a good chance today. At a best price 10/1 (Paddy Power) he's a solid bit of each way value.
the other 2!

Wednesday 29 April
Morning, so we picked up, obviously Douvan, but 2 more winners on top at 5/1 and 15/2, a solid profit for the day. Hopefully more of the same today. There's sadly no time to go in depth today so will just be a list. I'll pop my treble down, then the extras.
