Wednesday 25th March

2009 Challenge Fund (£14335 - £300 in play accounted)
Current stake - £120

90th minute equalisers!

I lie awake in bed last night pondering an obvious Spring Double. By the time I'd finished I'd called them both home and Quinn was being carried around Shifnal on a bed of garlands. More realistically I'm attracted to the place element of the bet - though hardly on value grounds. And it's a kind of hedge as I won't be backing them to win singly.

Blythe Knight – Lincoln 25/1
Character Building – National 14/1
£30 ew double.

And whilst we're shooting for the stars it's golf day again.
Fasth (last chance) and Dougherty 50/1+
Bryant 60/1+
2 x £10ew doubles


All of which is a way of saying – no bets today.




Barking Bets (Banked £1375/Current fund £2430 – 1 bet in play unaccounted)
Current stake - £240.


No obvious bet today.

    At this stage Gazboolou looks a likely bet in the 7:20 at Kempton tonight.. I’ll confirm later this evening..

    7.20 Kempton
    Shortlist: Highly Regal, Hawaana, Gazboolou, Hucking Hero

    The overall pace in the race is low and no one horse is slated to dominate. I anticipate a falsely run affair

    Highly Regal is on a four timer. It’s rare for a horse to achieve this feat at this grade and he needs to improve again.

    Hawaana is well drawn however current trainer form at this venue causes me to look elsewhere.

    Hucking Hero seems better suited to the idiosyncratic undulations of Lingfield. In a slow paced race, he is well drawn and his prominent running style may catch others on the back foot.

    Gazboolou who needs to overcome a 161 day absence but the best time to get him is first time out.

    Gazboolou and Hucking Hero @ 4/1 or better
