Ascot and Haydock

14.05 TAAJUB @ 7/1

Best match for previous winner trends in last 4 years.
Back to form this season including 3 wins with a CD two starts back. Met trouble in his last run but still managed to get within a neck of the winner.
7/1 will not last long grab it while you can

2:20 Haydock     Rosslyn Castle @ 5/1


2pts each plus a 1 point double  as I really expect both of these to do well ...



Of major interest today is also

Hadaj @ 25/1 at Newmarket (3:00)

Well worth an each way punt.

Apologises to followers .. I was given this tip (late) by my source today 5:00 | 3 Sula Two (Mr P Prince, 7-1 )

Circumstances conspired against me and I did not manage to post it here on time.

Ces't la vive ...






2:10 Wolverhampton:   SUMMER ISLES 10/1 .. doubt the price will last long ...


7.05 Ripon: SCARLETT WHISPER @ 5/1

Each 1pt PLAN A ( (6)(7)/20 )

Two large prices for you !!

3.35 Thirsk:  OSTEOPATHIC REMEDY @ 14/   Nowhere of note.

This horse has been tipped by the stable previously winning at big odds. Under the impression been primed for this meeting again since they have taken the exact same route; via a 7 furlongs race at Newcastle (a trip the horse has never won at). He is now 1lb lower than his win on this card last year and wasn't overly exercised last time out. The return to a mile in his favour and forecast rain a bonus.





PLAN A 1pt (4/20)  Finished a close and creditable second but as we do not do each-way, little consolation!!!

GOODWOOD 2.05 LOUIS THE PIOUS @ 22-1

Louis The Pious capable of putting in a bold show here. He has a tremendous flat line speed; fast ground a help, should go very close here.
Form on fast ground is 2323111414 and on 6f on fast ground is 3311114 so a fantastic record when conditions suit.

PLAN A 1pt (5/20)

My twitter alert: John Gosden's 2yr old @ around 7/1

1:45 NewMarket:  Cushion

A very good price for a 2yr old with this pedigree and by all accounts very highly thought of within the stable.

Get the price while it remains ...

PLAN A 1pt (6/20)

More to follow later

Edit: (forgot to include race time and name ... oops)

Results

3.10 Goodwood: Decent Fella @ 20/1
Stake: Plan A - 1 unit (1/20)
Did not even place so backing it each way would have made no difference which saves us a unit bet in order to break even .. small saving grave

2:55 Thirsk: - Mujaadel @ 11/1
Stake: Plan A - 1 unit (2/20)
Neither of my fancied runners did anything here and the selection failed.

2.00 Goodwood: Dandino @ 15/2
Stake: Plan A - 1 unit (3/20)

Finished a length and bit down in second at least he ran his race .. but second is nowhere in terms of profit.

2.35 Goodwod: Gregorian @ 7/2
Stake: Plan B - 1 units  (1/100)

Finished third in a three way race to the line; beaten less than a length ... again nowhere in profitable terms.

Think my boots have sprung a leak early doors :(
