26th August

55 Warwick-A few dropping in class and with Ammunition having its stamina to prove,Set the Trend having lots to find on ratings and The Cheka not the horse it was,it looks to be between Es Que Love and Highland Colori.

The former is just top rated but doesnt win often and is 0w-0p-11r in the months of August and September.

Highland Colori has been racing in class 2 races and drops back down a grade(Class 3 2w-1p-4r) for the first time since its last win.

When returning to the track within 28 days or less its 6w-3p-16r.

For me the value is clearly Highland Colori as theres too big a gap in prices between the 2 main horses.

Back Highland Colori 9pts at 5.5-Won(+38.7pts 1 non runner)

Ceiling price 5.0

3.0 Ripon-Shore Step has been a consistent horse until running below par last time but that was over 5 furlongs and its better at this trip.

In a race where lots of horses still have to prove themselves on the ground,it looks a decent price.

Monokova should run well and is entitled to be favourite.

Back Shore Step 6pts at 9.0 at Various Bookies-Non Runner

6.0 Huntingdon-Hard to imagine a less competitve handicap.

It only concerns 2 horses,Fromthetop is slowly improving but is going to have to find another progression forward to match the last run of She is a Cracker,who ive got 10Ibs clear and anything close to its last run,wins this easily.

Back She is a Cracker 25pts at 3.0-2nd(-25pts)Anyone who saw this will like me,struggle to work out how we didnt have another winner.Horse was produced perfectly to take it up at the last but just wandered around and clearly didnt want to win.So frustrating!(Touched 1.02 in running)(DT+13.7pts)

Days total minus commission+13pts

Monthly Total+417.13pts

Running Total+5737.83pts
