28th November

 307 Bangor-This is weak and looks a decent opportunity for Tipalong Tyler.

Its still lightly raced and has produced 3 decent efforts of late and then isnt many in this that can say that.

As long as it doesnt get too soft,it really should run well especially as its dropping in class and is also into a mares only race for the first time for a while.

Quiet Penny hasnt raced for nearly 2 years but makes its debut for a new yard while Rollercoaster is another to have moved stables and that could have a positive effect but it needs too.

Back Tipalong Tyler 12pts at 4.33 at Various Bookies-UP(-12pts)Ground went against it despite it being well backed.

1205 Doncaster-Calin Du Brizais has managed to be dropped 22Ibs in 5 runs this season and although,an infrequent winner,it showed a lot more last time and that rating stands out here.

There looks to be lots of pace on and that should suit as it stays well.

Rose Dobbin as won this race twice in recent years,so her Geordielandgangsta could go well and I can see the chance of Furius De Ciergues but it looks short enough to me.

Back Calin Du Brizais 5pts at 8.0 at Bet365-3rd(-5PTS)Plodded on ito 3rd without every threatening.

150 Newbury-The progressive ratings of Tea Clipper suggest its better than this grade and im surprised it isnt even shorter in the betting,despite this being quite competitve.

The trainer has sent out 4 winners from his last 14 runners and boasts a 30% strike rate with his hurdlers at this track.

On The Wild Side makes its handicap debut and is up in class and trip ,on ground faster than its recent runs.It looks on a fairly tough mark although could improve but its trainer has an unusually poor record here,which is also the case for Flash The Steel,there cannot be many courses where Dan Skelton has a 3% strike rate with his hurdlers but thats the case here.

Back Tea Clipper 12ts at 4.33 at Various Bookies-5th(-12pts)Massively disappointing run.

225 Newbury-It may not be good enough but my ratings suggest Pisgah Pike is a crazy price here.

Last time was a career best run and if it can improve again then ive got being competitive.

There are some lightly raced,progressive horses on show here,so it is a warm race but its the wrong price.

Back Pisgah Price 2pt Each Way at 21.0 at Bet365/Betfred-UP(-4pts)Halved in price but never involved in a messy race.(DT-19pts)

335 Newbury-Moonlighter ran a career best on its seasonal return and with the slight drop in trip suiting,Hopefully it will make them all go from the front.

It won on its only start at this track over fences and with its main market rival Ibleo needing it softer,im expecting a big run.

Zanza is lightly raced over fences and could figure but im hoping the selection can put pressure on its novicey jumping.

Back Moonlighter 12ts at 4.33 at Betvictor/Paddys-Fell(-12pts)To round off a shocker of a day,took off too early and had a heavy fall(DT-48pts)
