Friday 9th November

Wolves was good for us last night. And Hayley Turner continues to impress. I do like jockeys who keep it simple.


Another grim day today. I'll keep an eye on the jockey's championship. I think plenty of their mounts are going to start artificially short – Double Banded springs to mind.


In the 8:55 at Wolves they ride the two faves and if the game's still afoot I can see these two shortening up and everything else drifting. That being so I'm keen on backing a horse to place in that race at inflated odds. Two to choose from. The Balding horse looks far from straightforward and is being backed this morning. That leaves Vivacita. You need to forgive her last run, but that done, with stable in good form, and Catlin to give her an uncomplicated ride, she'll do for today's press up.


£500 Challenge
£15 Vivacita to place at 6/4 (hopefully bigger).

  1. What on earth has happened to Vivacita's price - 14s to 3s!!

  2. 3/1 winner - remarkable self-control on the part of connections there - you'd have sworn he had no chance on "vibes" until about 8 minutes before the off!
