I don’t have too many words of wisdom to offer on tomorrow’s racing. The consistent Royal Trooper has an each way chance in the Beverley 3.30. While at Yarmouth the veteran Caribbean Coral is ridden by Jamie Spencer in the 7.30 and may be worth considering. Course and distance ...

At Ayr tomorrow Layla’s Dancer might be worth considering in the 4.00.He was 4th at Doncaster last time out in a race that has worked out quite well. His only win to date was on soft ground so the predicted rain would be a help. A change of jockey ...

The big handicap today is the John Smith’s “Magnet” Cup at York. Wigmore Hall is perhaps the obvious choice as he is 7 lbs “well in” at the weights – 10 lbs if you include his rider’s claim. He is the Pricewise selection which means that the value has probably ...

The Newmarket July meeting has not been a happy one for me thus far but at least Lang Shining ended something of a losing run for me when winning tonight at Epsom. I will start tonight’s preview with a look at the Newmarket 2.35 which now has ...

We had quite a few winners on Saturday, notably King of Wands at 8/1 stepping up to two miles in a Listed event at Sandown. Apparently he may go jumping with Evan Willaims in due course. I gave a favourable mention to Dangerous Midge who turned the Old Newton Cup ...

The big race tomorrow is the Coral Eclipse at Sandown where it may pay to side with Zacinto who showed signs of a return to form on his last start. He is preferred to Mawaatheeq. In the Heritage Handicap at 2.35 last year’s winner Acrostic could go close again. He ...

At the time of penning these notes we have had a couple of winners, hopefully there may be more to come. Brunston won the Newbury Spring Cup on his first run of the season but has failed to reach that level of form on his two subsequent outings. He ...

Official Style has failed to live up to the promise he showed last season, due mainly to his inability to settle in his races. He drops back in distance tomorrow in the 4.00 at Haydock where a faster pace may help him. Munsarim was well supported on his ...
