ok ok I know its thoughts,but poetic (like what I am)licence permits ;-)

Good races equals good horses equals headache trying to sort one out :-)
however

Chest 1.50

possibly trickiest race on the card 5f madcap race lol

STEEL CUT is expected,(well tipped up) to reverse places behind DADDY COOL
but despite his outside draw I think he may be just too cool for
them(sorry)He has improved with every run.If YUNGABURRA can transfer his
amazing AW form to turf he can be a major player here.

Chest 2.20

ADMIRAL OF THE FLEET ran like a log lto over 1m but is expected to improve
over this 10f job.If he does well it will cheer up YELLOSTONE ante post
fiends as he was a long way back with YS 3rd.I may take a chance with
YAZAMAN of Mr Gosdens winner of his only two starts albeit in lower
grade,but oh so easily,he could as they say be anything,I hope he is
something today and then next month *grin*

Ham 7.20

BAYONYX caught my eye,1st time h`cap and hasn`t stopped improving,going and
trip not a problem,a bet to nothing ew imo

Nott 4.45

How can anyone who has seen his reurgence not be on RACCOON,his win the
other day was out of this world winning by at least 20 lengths ;-) easing
up,never won over 6f but this year this former excellent sprinter "wot lost
his way "showed no signs of stopping lto

well that`ll do for me,think I`ll take a nap ;-)

If it weren't for the pig awful draw then I would have gone for the filly,
Morinqua. Of course if the price were to rise to almost double what is it
is now...

I have a good memory and remember Thames Trader... more for the name than
his record. A cuttings search on the RP site brings up:
Thames Trader, winner of the 1961 Bessborough Handicap at Royal Ascot, ran
regularly in minor conditions events and was sometimes beaten in them, but
never at odds shorter than 1-3 - a fate he suffered at Brighton in August
1961.
A high-class but not particularly reliable gelding, he is perhaps best
remembered for giving John Oaksey (then Mr Lawrence) an armchair ride when
landing the inaugural Moet & Chandon Silver Magnum at Epsom in 1963.

I also remember Seb Sanders and others saying that Racoon did not stay an
inch farther than 5F when a 4yo. I backed him the other day but the penalty,
the draw and the distance will make me inclined to lay him this time. One of
the team on Betfair radio mentioned that he had just been Tubed to account
for his return to form. My memory tells me that he was tubed when he ran at
Musselburgh last summer but the Form Book does not mention it until his
first win this year. Interesting that four of his six wins have been in May.
While you stick to the Rioja, I'll settle for Desert Dew today.
Derek.

well we got that wrong,and so did the drawmaniacs saying you have to lead
well the 1st two came late,the winner very late.

At 7-2 I had to go for AOTF massive price,and didn`t he win well swooping on
the outside to win nicely.I backed him coz of rthe value price plus he was
siad to need this trip at least.YELLOWSTONE will improve for the extra
distance thats for sure,probably 20-1 with BF now(wishful thinking)

Best value for me today lies in the evening with RUNAWAY BISHOP in the
7.00 Wincanton. I like the old horse, who goes genuinely and doesn't
seem to mind being lightly or heavily raced, and will probably benefit
from the 7 pounds claimed by the amateur toff on board. The toff who
rode him far too boldly last time at Hexham cost him the race IMHO, to
my cost! Not too badly weighted and with a decent consistency in his
mediocre class of race, he should not be available at the current 7.2
on Betfair by rights. Excellent value.

Good luck chaps.
