Had a nice little touch today Friday so gave me a bit more confidence for tomorrow.Also the extra money means I have gone a bit mad tomoz but a lot of good races all over the country to have a go at.
iiii - GOODWOOD 1.45 - RIVER PRIDE - 15/2- Dont like it when a trainer has 3 in a race but think this is the best of Hannons three. Last time wasnt given a hard time late on after it was obvious my four candle rating HARRY THREE would win. LOST never in it. DANGERS- WONDERFUL WORLD 12-1 LOST AND WAR IN HEAVEN 9/1 LOST, not so good when you pick 3 and none of them get placed!!!!
iii- YORK 2.55 - JAWWAAL -8/1- Broke at back last week and tanking through race only to not get a clear passage and winner had gone so brought home in own time. Form needs upgrading . LOST jockey moved it into trouble 3 times and stumbled badly once, even worse!!!! Marjory, owner of winner is my mate's fairy godmother, she is 85 and hardly ever goes racing these days, was there today and he advised me to do this am and I bloodty forgot
ii- YORK 3.30- SILENCE PLEASE - 7/2 - Another who had a terrible run last time getting almost brought down 2f out. Headgear back on for today. LOST flattered to deceive
i- YORK 5-15 - MYKONOS ST JOHN - 12-1 - Raced away from the others which made it difficult to guage and didnt have horses to run against. Took the lead half a furlong out and nutted on line. Deserves better today. 3rd just couldnt do it

MUSSELBURGH 3.38- TOMMY G 20-1 WINNER great ride from back
Six winners , pity none of them were in my ratings and nearly got a 1200-1 treble . Just shows not only do you need to pick winners you need to put them in the right places. Made a nice profit overall but so close.
Well continued having a good week but canT do anything on the ratings time to change that LOL
iiii- HAYDOCK 2.20- CONTACT 7/2 - Very impressive last time and should defy 5lb penalty WINNER just how I imagined in my dream , did it nicely.

Apart from the derby meeting racing is poor and the authorities have got to do something, too many meetings and too small fields. anyway rant over and here are the ratings.
iiii - EPSOM 3.45: - FINE WINE 7/1 - Like a greyhound out of the traps last time and the other horses didnt see which way he went , placed horses including RAASEL last week have franked form. Very hopeful he will follow up. LOST never in it DANGER- STONE OF DESTINY 7-1 LOST
iii - EPSOM 2.00 - MR BIG STUFF 4/1- 5TH In tough London Cup despite being stopped in his run numerous times, with a bit more luck he should win today . LOST looked dangerous but fizzled out.
ii -EPSOM 2.35- TECHNIQUE 7/1- Has been running at a mile and just getting touched off, drop to 7f should see her inbetter light and stop her and my run of seconds. LOST 2nd last never in it DANGER - MAJESTIC GLORY 11/1 LOST
I -EPSOM 5.50 - RAYONG 16/1 -Another not running over his optimum distance but this quick track should see him not too worried not 5f. Also he beat FINE WINE over 5f first time out on the much tougher and also left handed Pontefract. DANGER ;COMMANCHE FALLS 13/2

I knew I was right re NORTHERN EXPRESS and he bolted up today at 6/1 and will follow it up with luck in running also had it with old favourite GALE FORCE MAYA 10-1 for another nice Friday touch, lets hope these do as well:-
iiii - YORK 3.40 - INGRA TOR -4/1 - Been waiting ages for this one as others he slaughtered have franked the form of his easy Newmarket win last time. LOST slammed HARRY THREE last time who I followed because of that form , really upset the form. It happens and I remember something similar happened to me last year.
iii- YORK -2.35 - BOARDMAN - 5/2 -Been beating my other fancies all year and should go in again. LOST never got into it on his highest ever mark .
ii - SANDOWN 3.25- FANTASY MASTER - 6/1 - Blew the start last time and still finished well to take 3rd behind TEES SPIRIT who won the dash last week and he has also been dropped two pounds, hoping Daryl Holland gets a good Saturday winner. NON RUNNER
i- YORK 2.00 - DASH OF SPICE - 14/1 - Royal Ascot winner who has been falling down handicap and was given a pipe opener over hurdles last week . Hoping that has brought him on and he can find his old form. LOST just plodded on one pace the whole race DANGER - KINGSOFTHEMIDLANDS 9/2 LOST went too quickly early
