19th April

305 Carlisle-Pleasantly surprised at the odds available on Billy Cuckoo here.Apart from 1 pulled up run,its been in decent form all season and comes here after a little break.
It has won around this specialist track before and is 4w-4p-17r over this 2m4f trip.
Its top of my ratings on most recent form and really should go close.
Im finding it very difficult to understand why Stagecoach Pearl has been put in as favourite.Its better at shorter and hasnt been in any sort of form anyway.
0w-0p-4r in April and 0w-1p-4r on stiff tracks like this only add to its negatives.
Lucky Landing at its best would have a chance but is possibly at its best around Market Rasen while Storming Gale,back on good ground may well provide the biggest threat.
Back Billy Cuckoo 12pts at 5.0 at various bookies-UP(-12pts)Same story,Money for it.Never travelling.
Accept 4.0

420 Haydock-Horizontal Speed ran a shocker last time but the time before,posted the best rating on show here.However that was on soft ground and unless the heavens open,its difficult to predict a return to form although this is a drop in class.
Horatio Hornblower is respected but the market has it about right while Its a Doddle has been moving up and down in trip,the ground is an unknown for it.
The clear value for me has to be Kilgefin Star,whos a silly price for a unexposed,progressive hurdler making its handicap debut.
Unlike many of these,it will love the ground and Danny Cook is an impressive 10 wins from 41 starts when riding for this yard.
Back Kilgefin Star 6pts at 9.0 at Various Bookies-UP(-6pts)Drifted badly.Not even sure what happened to it as the angle on the tv changed.All I know was it was rubbish!
Just an an awful week.(DT-18pts)
Monthly Total-7.60pts
Running Total+6603.37pts
