215 Ayr-Although its form figures dont look that great,Pure Faith ran so well last time behind Finnians Rainbow,it must have a decent chance in this company.
Back Pure Faith 10pts at 5.0-PU(-10pts)A terrible run in keeping with the last few days.


250 Ayr-Edgardo Sol surely has this race at its mercy with its current rate of progression.
Back Edgardo Sol 20pts at 3.4-UP(-20pts)Another terrible run


225 Bangor-Get it on to beat Relax 30pts at 2.0-Lost(-30pts)Looked sure to be involved at the finish & Relax looked beat but plugged on past it.(DT-60pts)

435 Ayr-Kai Broon is improving over fences & has Shadrack to beat.
Back Kai Broon 25pts at 3.0-4th(-25pts)


230 Fontwell-Ballyvoneen & Sole Agent should run well while Current Climate often runs above its rating on this course & distance but i like the consistent Guydus,who won for the blog last time & jumped fantastic that day.
Back Guydus 13pts at 4.3-UP(-13pts)Didnt look like it wanted to race at the start & ran very poorly.


4.0 Ayr-This is a good little race,Gansey & Divers are respected but Torphichen must go well & is well overpriced.
Back Torphichen 15pts at 7.0-3rd(-15pts)Ran well & if it had jumped slightly better,may have gone very close.(DT-53pts)


445 Fontwell-Quite a few that cant be fancied due to trip,ground or fitness.Watergate will run its race but Inthejungle looks to have a solid chance.
Back Inthejungle 13pts at 4.5-Fell(-13pts)Just coming to win the race when fell 3 out(DT-66pts)

Back Aerial 12.5pts at 4.3-Wasnt Matched

17th April

350 Kempton-Hopefully there wont be a big change in the ground as Kikos likes it no worse than good to soft but it has a excellent record after a break & should go well.Coolbeg is respected but is also not certain to like the ground but Tooka does.
Back Kikos-2nd 8.5pts at 5.8 & Tooka 7.5pts at 7.6 -3rd(-16pts)


420 Kempton-Dark Spirit looks quite well in here & the forecast rain shouldnt be a problem as its sire loved the soft,whereas Luggers hall looks the main danger on ratings.Moved stake onto Luggers Hall as looks very solid now,Dark Spirit is out.
Back Dark Spirit 21pts at 3.75-Non Runner
Back Luggers Hall 20pts at 3.0-Won(+40pts)(DT+24pts)

Norwich V Man City
Back Over 2.5 goals 40pts at 1.9-Won(+36pts)

310 Chepstow-Wide open & Kayfton Pete may well win but its very short.Lady Bridget is progressing but so is Loughalder who may step up again in this 1st run in a handicap.
Back Loughalder 3.5pts at 20.0-4th(-3.5pts)Plodded on but Kayfton Pete showed why it was so short.


450 Chepstow-After only 1 run over fences,you would expect Round the Horn to improve on its very good debut.UPthemsteps has been backed but the trip & ground dont look ideal.
Back Round the Horn 11pts at 4.5-UP(-11pts)Just ran a lifeless race.(+22.5pts)


550 Chepstow-On Soft ground,Pancake would have an excellent chance but todays faster going leaves him short on my ratings.

Back Finians Rainbow 25pts at 3.0-Won(+50pts)


505 Sedgefield-Surprise Vendor is inconsistent but as a Course & Distance winner hopefully can run well again today.Its last rating puts it well clear of Stanley Bridge & Lawgiver.
Back Surprise Vendor 20pts at 3.0-4th(-20pts)Drifted badly & although got in contention 2 out,it weakened out of it.


355 Sedgefield-Soul Magic has a good strike rate over fences & has put up some consistent ratings that should put it bang there.
Back Soul Magic 8.5pts at 5.7-5th(-8.5pts)Lookied as those they were always going  astride too quick for him.Poor run.(DT+21.5pts)


625 Wolverhampton-As long as the trip isnt too short,Ahlawy should run well on a track it loves.
Back Ahlawy 10pts at 5.5-3rd(-10pts)(DT+11.5pts)


725 Wolverhampton-Island Legend is very solid & must go well but at a bigger price I like Baby Strange who will finishing fast.

250 Chepstow-The ground is changing at this track as the rain is falling which means Overnight Fame`s chance is getting better by the minute.
Back Overnight Fame 10pts at 4.5-2nd(-10pts)Beaten by an impossible to rate chasing debutant

510 Chepstow-Although its a bit inconsistent,Might as Well is clear top rated on its last run & handles the ground,if its on a going day then it should go well.
Back Might as Well 10pts at 6.0-UP(-10pts)Was backed this morning but then the ground totally went against it.(DT-20pts)


415 Plumpton-A field full of horses with question marks.Ballyvoneen is fav & is difficult to assess as it won yesterday.The selection is a consistent animal but finds winning difficult but it must be bang there if continuing its recent form.
Back Guydus 10pts at 4.25*Non runner so revised from 5.0 to 4.25*-Won(+32.50pts)(DT+12.5pts)


6.0 Plumpton-Rocky Ryan ran well enough last time to mean hes a strong fav in this race.Mrs Peacock & Madame Jasmine are the only concievable dangers.
Back Rocky Ryan 20pts at 3.0-PU(-20pts)Horse lost its action when still right there.(DT-7.5pts)


4.0 Chepstow-A 2 horse race for me,Take of Shocs is solid but certainly shouldnt that much shorter than Ours,who wont mind if it gets really soft either.
Back Ours 14pts at 5.5-UP(-14pts)Never going & ran terrible(DT-21.5pts)


435 Chepstow-Good competitive race in which I can see Shoegazer,Radmores Revenge & Oscar Davy all runninbg well but Pantoxa is showing consistently good ratings and has to be involved at the end.
Back Pantoxa 10pts at 4.5*Non Runners so revised from 5.2 to 4.5*-UP(-10pts)(DT-31.5pts)

Back Huckleberry 20pts at 3.5-Won(+50pts)


435 Plumpton-Looks between Double Handful & Ugo to me whilst Rajamand needs to improve a lot.
Back Double Handful 12pts at 4.5-3rd & Lay Rajamand 50pts at 4.0-2nd(+38pts)Rajamand did run much better whilst Double handful looked to get outpaced & then stayed on really strongly.(DT+88pts)


510 Plumpton-This is seriously weak,the market likes Beau Colonel but that seems to be more for the fact that theres been money for it the last twice,purely on ratings then Curragh Dancer has the best chance.
Back Curragh Dancer 15pts at 3.9-3rd(-15pts)Betting told you how it was going to run,as it drifted & ran terrible.(DT+73pts)

230 Newton Abbot-Solid and Consistent,Kilvergan Boy must go really close as long as the long season doesnt catch up with him.Chasing debutant Fresher Fishing is the only danger for me.
Back Kilvergan Boy 19pts at 3.35-2nd(-19pts)Jumped well & got beat a nostril,I managed to win on the race by backing the winner in the photo but its counted on the account as a loser


440 Haydock-Although Bradley & Jaunty Journey have chances,I have this between Dom D`Orgeval & Wide Reciever with slight preferation for the latter.
Back Wide Reciever 7pts at 6.6-2nd(-7pts)Ran a great race


445 Newton Abbot-Its certainly no win machine but Solitary Palm achieved a clear top rating last time & hopefully can run somehwere near that to put it bang there.
Back Solitary Palm 6pts at 9.0-P/U(-6pts)9DT-32pts)


340 Newton Abbot-Good little race this in which Qoubilai is top rated & should still be improving.Must go well.
Back Quobilai 12pts at 4.3-Not Matched


355 Carlisle-Vamizi should go well but looks a little short & Isla Pearl Fisher is a consistent horse that likes the conditions but I prefer Ammunition who stays all day & could be well handicapped.

530 Kelso-More Equity will run well here and Overyou is difficult to assess accurately because of its fall last time when running well but over a much longer trip,so I like Stick Together,who despite having a poor strike rate over hurdles,looks like it might be a better chaser.
Back Stick Together 15pts at 5.0-3rd(-15pts)Beat the book but just didnt jump well enough.
