Saturday 18th November - racing

Haydock 1:20
Kicks for Free Evens
Self respect 9/4
Bleak House 11/2
Indian Pipe Dream 20/1

Nothing against Kicks for Free but again the Nicholls horses are incredibly short. I'll have to oppose.

Self respect 4pts win at 11/4



Haydock 1:50
Kauto Star 7/4
Beef or Salmon 4/1
L'Ami 5/1
Kingscliff 6/1
Iris's Gift 11/1
Ollie Magern 12/1

Boy, you can turn yourself inside-out with the ifs and buts on this one. No bet right now.



Haydock 2:20
Jazz D'Estruval 7/1
Be Be King 7/1
Mephisto 9/1

United 12/1
Two Miles West 12/1
Desert Tommy 12/1
Brankley Boy 12/1
Millennium Royal 20/1
Royal Emperor 20/1

Very tight. Nothing doing right now. I may play the low-weights closer to the off is the ground is looking bad.



Haydock 3:20
Launde 5/4
Roman Ark 3/1
Strike back 9/1

Launde may have it to do on ratings, but I like him here against disappointing types. Will wait on a drift though.

Mr Boo 6/1
Knowhere 7/1
Without a Doubt 8/1
Billyvoddan 9/1

Think the market should be more compact than it is and so have bet accordingly.

Billyvoddan 3pts win at 14/1
Without a Doubt 3pts win at 14/1
Mr Boo 3pts win at 8/1
1pt in total combined fcs/trifecta.

Madison Du Berlais 13/2
See You Sometime 12/1

I don't actually fancy any of these as it stands. Watching brief. No bet.

I'm a huge fan of Monkerhostin and quite happy to take 2/1 here.
