    Got a runner at Fontwell tomorrow - 2.50pm , Vorashaan, beautifully bred we bought from the Aga Khan would you believe. Half brother won Dubai World Cup 3 times !!! 
    Anyway, I suspect he is useless to be honest, he has shown nothing so far and definitely not one to back tomorrow. Just hoping he gets round safely and shows a bit more promise following his wind op.

    Don't want to jynx it but I'm on a ridiculous purple patch... Had New Mandate yesterday at 12s, Arsenal 3-0 at 16s and have placed or won in every race so far today. Need Pyledriver for 345 quid and Charlton 2-0 for a grand!

    A horse turned over at 1.02 in a photo finish at Redcar. Wonder if they’ll release the photo.

    Not a tip per se, but I put Mr Strutter in my tracker and he runs tomorrow Catterick 4:40. 

    Given an awful non trying ride last time and met every piece of traffic available. Dropped to a very attractive mark. Was 7/1 but into 5/1 already.

    Wow. If he could find some more trouble that be great.

    3.35 Newmarket......Tempus trained by Roger Charlton (it's a sign I tell you). Seriously, feel this is a group horse running in a handicap and PP going 7 places.

    High draw majorly effecting large field handicaps at Newmarket today.

    So, will it be a third Arc for Enable today? I think it probably will, but I'm very sweet on In Swoop given the inclement conditions. 25s were available last week and now we're seeing 8s.

    Hope Enable but if bottomless going think Stradivarius could have a big say.

    I think Enable is likely to prevail, especially now the field has been decimated. Magnificent mare.
    My money is already down on the mighty Stradivarius though and would be delighted if he wins, not just for the winnings but for the horse and his legacy - a fourth Ascot Gold Cup next year would be the icing on the cake and mark him down as the greatest stayer. The great Ardross came so close to winning an Arc.

    And for the other races, too, after that contaminated feed. Absolutely gutting that - puts a bit of a downer on the day (even though I'm hardly the biggest Coolmore fan).

    thanks mate .. I put the bet on y/day .. I have seen or heard nothing about the withdrawals until now .. this really devalues the race ..
     I am a bit of  suspicious soul and I wonder if 'dodgy horse grub' has played a major part in Coolmore's unparalleled success ?

    Enable got some big interference and didn’t recover.

    Agree.

    Glass Slippers in the next. Love that horse and followed it since it’s debut. Tough draw but fingers crossed.

    My horse Vorashann is running at Chepstow tomorrow - he is favourite and I’m certainly hopeful he will justify favouritism. 🤞
