Sat TV Trends: 25th May 2013
A huge day this Saturday with the C4 cameras heading to Haydock, Goodwood and York, plus they are taking in the Irish 2,000 Guineas over at the Curragh too.
Daily Dabble, 24th May 2013 Another damp squib yesterday, as firstly Chandlery never looked returning to his old form, nor did he ever look like getting involved in the shake up, finishing 9th of 10 and a good 20-plus lengths off the winner. Back to the drawing board for the connections of that one, I [...]

Stat of the Day, 24th May 2013 The booking of Richard Hughes to ride Levi Draper was pivotal (in my opinion anyway!) yesterday as he delivered a near perfect ride to take the race late on. The horse had run well enough and when switched out left for a final push, took up a great [...]

While Frankie Dettori spends another three days in France undergoing tests to obtain his jockey’s licence, over in Ireland, leading jockey Johnny Murtagh has recently picked up a second licence. He is combining race riding with training, and hopes for success at the highest level early in his new career.

Sheikh Mohammed has set out plans which he hopes will go a long way to restoring the battered reputation of Godolphin. In doing do he could also pave the way for a more unified global approach to the use of anabolic steroids in the racing industry.

Salisbury Preview/ Placepot Picks, 23rd May 2013 Aargh, more banker issues, though with a very thin perm yesterday that was always possible. In truth, I could have gone much longer and still not had the last leg – 20/1 winner, 33/1 second in a novice hurdle, only two places – so we at least kept [...]

The publication of the Anglo-Irish National Hunt classifications on 21 May confirmed Bobs Worth, Sprinter Sacre, Big Buck’s, Hurricane Fly, The New One and Simonsig as the top horses across the seven categories. There were no major surprises, and with the exception of top novice chaser Simonsig, all the winners were rated four pounds or [...]

Sorry. I’ve been so head down in the Winning Trainers launch and working with new subscribers to get them up and running that I haven’t scribbled anything on here for a few days. Luckily, that doesn’t mean there hasn’t been top content galore posted by the rest of the team, and regular visitors to the [...]
Continue reading …Daily Dabble, 23rd May 2013 In what now seems to be becoming a daily tale of frustration and woe, so yesterday followed suit. I really fancied the chances of Gilzean yesterday, but he was withdrawn less than 2 hours before his race leaving us with a straightforward 1pt E/W bet on Intomist at 13/2 BOG. [...]
Continue reading …Stat of the Day, 23rd May 2013 A bit of a stinker from At A Clip yesterday. She never got close to the action and was struggling from an early point in the race before being (sensibly, in my opinion) eased down to trot home last of ten runners. The race was already lost and [...]

There was plenty of entertainment in Sir Alex Ferguson’s final match as manager of Manchester United. No doubt his pulse was racing as his side conceded five goals, but for once, the hairdryer was probably left at home. Next up to increase the adrenaline rate is Telescope, and Ferguson is hopeful that the horse he [...]

Worcester Preview/ Placepot Picks, 22nd May 2013 Problems with my bankers again yesterday, and my sole win single bet of the night – Marodima – was given a plain stupid ride. Under no pace pressure for the lead, his jockey, Tom O’Brien, decided to charge 25 lengths clear on him. Unsurprisingly, he was knackered at [...]
