If you watched The Morning Line on Saturday you will have noted that Richard Hoiles gave Mistoffelees as his charity bet and the 4 year old won at 4/1 for his inexperienced rider. The horse looks one to follow and it will be interesting to see how he gets on ...

The success in the Stewards’ Cup seems a long time ago now as we are suffering from something of a losing run. Villefranche is a nice little bay in the South of France with a decent restaurant near the sea front that does wonderful salads. Michael Bell introduces the ...

After a remarkably unsuccessful day on the tipping front things can surely only get better! There are plenty of race meetings tomorrow although not a lot of quality. At Brighton in the 3.30 Aestival could get back to winning ways while in the 6.00 at Folkestone the consistent Dungannon ...

I will start tonight’s preview at my lucky track of Kempton Park. Hamloola showed some promise in what was probably a weak back end maiden last November running on into 3rd place. It is a bit of a concern that she her reappearance has been delayed until August but she ...
