    Heavy form shocking, Plumpton runs bad and still a maiden = not for me,
    Proud times looks a better bet at larger odds. Jockey on fire, good record against top of the market horses with poor records.
    Muddling race.
    Good luck if you play, will probably romp up.
    Hold The Bucks has to win off a career high mark BUT his record at Plumpton over 2m is 2-5-2-1-1-1. All those runs were on ground from soft/heavy. Freddie Mitchell returns to ride claiming a valuable 7lbs and is two from two on the horse.

    Avaialable at 5/1 with Skybet, he is generally a 9/2 shot (5.8 on Betfair).


    boom

    sussex national...........................reblis for me.

    Missed Plumpton today Abs as I went to the Larkhill PtPs. They have some serious former stars running between the flags these days. Good stuff and a fine hog roast to keep the wolf from the door. Few too many short price winners for my liking betting-wise though.
    Anyway, near thing with Reblis - looks like it was a cracker of a race....trust AA to be on the winner ;o)

    PS That Noble Friend is owned by Roger Alwen's daughter.

    And Mick Channon, or should I say, Henrietta Knight, ran Arkle prospect in a Class 5 maiden on the AW at Lingfield today.

    These stables will do anything to avoid running their big guns against each other but it's about time the BHA abandoned ALL races with four or less runners (rather than just some on the AW). That will soon stop this from happening.

    Backed the winner in the first although he definitely got spooked by something.

    I have backed two horses today.

    In the Kelso 2.10 I am on Mister Marker who has drifted from 10 on Betfair out to its current price of 20. It is a bit of a leap of faith to forgive the horse's last three or four runs but the horse is 7lb lower than when winning in February and Nicky Richard's yard is in fantastic form at the moment with all five of their previous five runners prior to today winning.

    In the 2.40 I'm on Snuker who has been backed from 8.8 in to 5.4 on Betfair and has every chance of replicating its penultimate start win.

    bad day for me yesterday .. I am now gonna save most of my hard earned until Cheltenham .. bad ground, too many mediocre horses carrying too much weight and too many trainers (understandably) saving their best for the festival

    Mister Marker ran as the market predicted as if the horse really has gone sour.

    Gave up all hope on Snukre (hit 160 in running) but full credit to Lucy Alexander who was fantastic with her perseverance to get the horse home when lots of other jockeys would have given up long time before.
