I was going to put up Cityscape for the 2.00 at Haydock but his participation is in doubt because of the going. He is best with some ease in the ground but with a dry day forecast in Lancashire he may miss the race. In the circumstances I ...

Well, we had mixed fortunes today but we did manage a winner thanks to Bollin Judith who hacked up at Redcar where she is becoming something of a course specialist. La De Two only went down by a head and is one to keep on the right side ...

Although neither of today’s selections managed to win both Azaday and Bramshaw ran well and are worth keeping in mind next time they run. In the 1.30 at Redcar tomorrow Bollin Judith seems to have quite a lot in her favour. She is a course and distance winner, acts ...

Just a couple of suggestions for tomorrow’s racing. At Brighton in the 4.30 Chris Wall’s 3 year old Azaday has been knocking on the door and should go close. At Kempton in the 8.20 Bramshaw, a winner of his only start so far is very well ...

Starting at Leicester tomorrow Sleeping Wolf should be all the better for his debut run at Salisbury and could be a threat in the 2.10. Of the newcomers Dumbarton is interesting on breeding. House Point represents a capable but unfashionable trainer in the 3.10. He has shown ...

With the news that Bated Breath has had an injury scare his price in the listed race at Newmarket now looks short enough. This is quite a tough race to predict but with doubts over Bated Breath, Dafeef and Mon Cadeaux are the pair I would probably go ...

The going could play a significant part in the racing tomorrow with a fair amount of rain about in some parts of the country. Starting at Beverley Mark Johnston has an interesting runner in the 2.25 in Guest Book. He won his maiden at Chepstow before finishing 2nd in ...

There are just 4 horses on tomorrow’s cards that catch my eye. At Bath Raktiman runs in the 5.45. He won for the first time at this track last month in a pretty mediocre 4 runner race. He is a scopey sort though and now he has got his ...
