Saturday 30th January

Couldn't stiffen it for you Martin!! Well we’re down to a solitary race this week, and for the fourth week in a row I was going to say there’s a raging favourite. But there’s not, as Musical Slave has just about usurped him. Fear not, I’m not going for him either – well not as first choice. I’ll get...

Welsh National 9th January

I had good intentions of looking at the Lanzarote Hurdle at Kempton, but as normal so many of the fancied horses have no handicap form, so that would be a waste of time.

Yesterday turned into one of those days again when I made a strong case from leaving the winner out and went with second and third – when will I ever learn!

New Year's Day

New Year’s Day and this week although Cheltenham is cancelled it was long ago and I didn’t waste all day analysing like I did with the Welsh National!! Perhaps I was fortunate that Musselburgh is on. Well, let’s hope we can get the New Year off with a winner. I believe that this year must be better ...
