TEAMS ARE OUT Les Bleus are out first in their famous blue kit, with red socks. Germany follow shortly afterwards dressed head-to-toe in white. Out of both squads this evening, 14 players have World Cup winners medals, not bad, not bad at all! Only three of the 22 have wonContinue Reading
FOUR WINNERS in the last two days including two solid naps; also LITTLE PLAYER (11/4) and GOLDEN BUGLE (7/2) as we strive to make ‘Flaming June’ too hot for the bookmakers. Hi Meh Darling, a 22/1 shot, must have surprised Scottish trainer Iain Jardine when out-running his odds on debutContinue Reading
Tinkerstar ticks enough boxes to justify each-way selection for an eleven-runner Novice Stakes over six furlongs of ‘good to firm’ Carlisle today; hopefully Peter Makin’s charge will ‘kick off’ Royal Ascot week in the best possible style. Nothing inspires confidence more than a good-priced winner and this twice-raced Fast CompanyContinue Reading
HERE COME THE TEAMS Both sets of players are making their way out onto the pitch ahead of kick-off! New PSG player Wijnaldum leads out the Netherlands in the absence of Liverpool’s Van Dijk.

Sam Twiston-Davies provided a solid reason why I’ve long placed tremendous emphasis on jockeyship when winning on the somewhat recalcitrant Dr Richard Newland-trained Olympic Conqueror over two tense miles of Uttoxeter last Thursday; a short-head verdict over Ambassador doesn’t tell half the story. Alright so it was the second legContinue Reading
Another short-priced ‘professional special’ double yesterday became a ‘full house’ because C’mon Kenny was withdrawn earlier due to over-watering at Nottingham, again! Income is a time-handicap ‘special’ expected to bring reward for serious punters in a twelve-runner Maiden Fillies’ Stakes over six furlongs of ‘good to firm’ Goodwood tonight;Continue Reading
C’mon Kenny provides an interesting theory to effect of weight-for-age in a Maiden Stakes over a mile of ‘good to firm’ Nottingham this afternoon when the twice-raced Ian Williams-trained five-year-old Dutch Art gelding is set carry ten stones, 16lbs more than Matamua, a three-year-old filly which will also be havingContinue Reading
