Solar Aclaim didn’t eat up this morning so has been pulled out of the Hamilton race this afternoon – no damage done as of course the money is refunded. The Haggas team had two winners we didn’t back yesterday. Castle Cove took my Economics comment to heart and won without any bother defying top weight…

Not much I can say about the ride on KissKodi. Somehow allowed the horse to become unbalanced and then got stuck in behind forced to switch and got beat a fast diminishing head. It happens but when you get 11/4 about an 11/8 that gets beat by a 25/1 shot it hurts. Come back Kaiya…

The William Haggas team have 8 runners on Saturday and one of there best chance of success is with Maelstrom in the days most valuable contest the Macmillon Sprint at 3.35, ridden by Adam Farrager This is annually one of the most competitive 3yo sprint handicaps of the season, and the yard also run Showering…

Friday at first glance looks to be full of opportunities but the three or four i was assessing have all been dealt really bad draws that negates any possibility of them being a bet for us. I will run through the Haggas runners of which there are surprisingly only 4 on the day. None of…

The forecast heavy rain for Thursday looks to have been overstated and the ground at Newbury should remain good. However if Weather Forecasters were punters they would soon be bankrupt. My advice for Thursday is to check the ground conditions before getting stuck in. Providing Newbury races on ground no softer than Good to Soft…

A quick note on Royal Ascot – Economics has suffered a muscle injury and is out of the meeting. Another in a series of high profile horses forced to miss next weeks festival. Regulars will know my reluctance to back Haggas horses Ante-Post as unless conditions are spot on they will not be declared at…

it is the time of year when 2yo’s with experience can have an advantage over well bred unraced horses who have not been purchased at the breeze ups or readied early for Royal Ascot. There was a great example at Windsor on Monday when the more experienced Bella Lyra was able to easily outpoint the…

It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Ante Post punters the withdrawal of Kyprios, Albert Einstein and now Lake Victoria the three Coolmore bankers at the Royal Meeting have given the bookmakers a head start next week. Add to that the defeats of Calandagan, Desert Flower and Delacroix at Epsom along with the withdrawal…
