    advice needed please - ive picked 5 horses today, 2 in the stewards cup then 3 other races. 

    ive done 7 £1 e/w trebles and 2 x £1 e/w accums  HOWEVER  ive just realised on docket ive only staked 16 quid, ive clearly looked down at the accum part and just staked 2 quid when i should have staked 4. how will the land lie with this bet?

    They should pro rata it so ie you are on 2 x 50p accumalators. I think

    Sorry I have just realised they were all on one slip and paid in total . They will pro rata all bets.

    My poor run goes on and on and I am worried that this has made me too conservative with my horses tomorrow. Also it appears I fancy too many of Mark Johnston's horses. Not only is it diffficult to pick which of the many horses he has in each race are going to win it doesnt seem possible he will have the 4 that I have chosen over all my selections.

    Anyway here goes

    iiii - Ascription 11-4 1.45 Haydock -Smashed a field of 17 runners last time and Ryan Moore booked, lets hope he is the horse I think it is. If Jacks Revenge wins the 12.55 at Ascot back him as he beat Jack's by 4 and half lengths. Hopeful but only 2nd.

    iii- Broxbourne 4-1 1.30 Ascot -Beat good yardstick in Leiutenant Miller last time and it appears easy for the filly at the moment. Hopefully the filly on board can ride her calmly to a treble. Should of known , last year I said Johnston must have been pulling hair out of a lady rider gave Galician a bad ride. This was even worse, has that jockey ever ridden a horse before, she left it last then drove it into the rails before the poor horse took over and ran very bravely to get close. Got a chance next time with a proper jockey .

    ii- Racy -100-30 -2.05 Ascot - Been running well without putting its head in front recently and hoping Andreas Starke can finally get the horse the win it deserves. Not good enough

    i - Senockian Star - 6-1 -2.20 Haydock Another Johnston horse that has been ulra consistent and hopeful he can get another win. Thought he was going to win but mugged by a very good run by a 25-1 shot.

    Other horses

    Afformentioned Jacks Revenge 12.55 Ascot 3rd looked like winner at 1f
    Broughton 2.40 Ascot 4th best of the johnston horses in this race
    Star Lahib 3.15 Ascot At last a winner and lovely price
    Shahdoroba 3.50 Ascot

    Just passed the year anniversary of this thread and although lucks been out recently at least I have a profit over the year so not all bad.

    Here are tomorrrows.

    iiii - Baccarat 3.30 Ripon 9-2 - Did this horse a couple of weeks ago and had a terrible break, terrible run and then had to jump a fallen jockey and still finished a close 6th. Hoping it gets some luck today. Won well , am I on my way back.

    iii - Sylvia Pankhurst 3.45 Chester 15-2 - Hope she doesn't get knocked over on the bend. Has course and distance form and excuses the last twice. Hoping only 2lb higher means she can go in again.  Just couldnt get in from outside and the one inside her forced her wider. Still not going to win.

    ii - Glen Moss 3.50 Newbury -5-1 - Jumping on the Johhny Murtagh bandwagon with this one and hopes he gives another master class from the saddle. Only 3lb higher than good Doncaster win and did well to finish 4th on wrong side at Ascot. Another winner and a lovely early price as he backed down and Murtagh class. And had it in a double with Baccarat. Life is better.

    i- Baby Strange 2.20 Newmarket 5-1 - The Grey cavalry charge and this one of the best little grey horses around at this level which is why she has top weight. Another who won two races ago and then ran well in big field next time. Hoping she can deal with these. 3rd-Had a troubled run but looked like his young jockey was going to win it on the line but mugged by winner and just didnt catch second.

    Other fancies

    Dancing Maite 1.55 Don 4-1 Last terrible run
    Lost in Moment  2.40 Newb -11-2 Had troubled passage and finished well for 3rd
    Autumn Lily 1.50 Newm 3-1 not good enough
    CanyouConga 2.55 Newm 6-1 -winner and what a price 12-1 a big bonus.

    What did I tell you and what a proper jockey Fanning gave it a brilliant ride as looked dead and buried at 2f pole.

    There is a lot of really hard races to work out this week with "failed" top class horses against some up ad coming handicappers. Failures include Shirrocco Star and Mince especially.
     
    Here goes with the ratings but not overly confident.

    iiii - 2.55 Goodwood Glen Moss 11-2 - Lets hope Frankie can give this easy winner from last week as good a ride as Mr Murtagh. Couldnt dominate and well beaten.

    iii - 2.05 York - Cristoforo Columbo 2-1 - If this horse runs up to its reputation and 2000 guineas 5th this price should be brilliant. Worry he has been off course since that day. NR

    ii- 3.55 Newmarket -Nocturn 14-1 - hope this one is the number 1 of the stable and returns to its pre Ascot form. Another second, ran well

    i- 2.20 Goodwood - Qawaasem 11-4 -Hoping she will get back to winning ways . Ran well for 2nd but winner very very impressive. 

    Also fancy

    Educate 12-1 3.30 Goodwood got bad bump as looking to make move but not good enough in this company.Afsare looked class above./
    Santapadi 33-1 got a good run for the price and Tiger Cliff 13-2 in Ebor -Winner
    Dashing star 2.40 York Absolutely loved it and good second pity he was beaten by the Irish Raider. 
    Tahaamah 5.05 Newm
