Even if this does win he will never qualify for the race

Have zero strong likes today.

Awaiting their comments (hopefully) but I think both Indian Giant and I Got You Babe have possibilities today, will also e/w double them.

R1 The sprints seem to favour those drawn high on Friday which only pushes me further towards the Blast camp. The rest is a concern as is the stable's "consistency" but he did run well off a 12 week break in his penultimate outing. A couple of possible idiots... Johnny Handsome may appreciate the straight course from a high draw and Iberian Express was far from disgraced on Friday and also gets a high box.

R2 Stable has mostly been flat as a pancake for a while but Excitement Seeker interests me a little. A Smith owned horse which was sent to Howells for a while where he had two much improved runs on the turf. Two attempts on the Poly were poor but not striding on one and possibly too far in the other, possible back on the turf and back down in trip that he still retains the improvement. Sky At Night he most likely for me otherwise and Arabica not far away.

R3 Top two in the market for me with Black Belluga my preference. All About The Dash might run on for a place from a dreadful draw.

R4 Think it is possible Davyana may have a preference for some give in the ground so i will pass on her and go with Call Of the Hunt from Five Moons. Nibbled Fragile Flower.

R5 Have gone with Gauteng over WC in PE! Indian Giant from Emperor Augustus though, especially with Marcus up, it was a very tight call. Le Capitane could be some value.

R6 Much more open than the betting suggests imo and I will take a chance and pass on Lift Off from the 10 box. Dinesen and Coco look to have some value to me and don't completely discount Range Lights, huge price for me back on the turf from a fair draw.

R7 I hope Disco Al retains the crown and Ramsden sounds confident. Arion, potentially, has to be the big danger though Bonnard from the same stable also has a shout imo. In A Rush a nagger.

R8 I Got You Babe and Path To Travel look the best value options to me and I'll add Saint Angelique and hope the trifecta pays!

R9 For me, the toughest of the lot. Of the joint favs I would have to favour Darling Moon based on the draw bit lots of possibilities and Fascinating Filly is a bit of an unknown and could represent some value. Dream To Reality for the trifecta.

Will be watching the Smith horses with a little more interest than usual today. The Snaith stable often does well on these days, just lucky we can refer to their helpful website to help decipher which they favour, will need a run etc etc etc

I repeat before I close, despite my waffle lol, could easily end up with zero places on a day like today! You get that "lack of confidence" sense going on

Be(s)t of luck to all

Thanks Englander

Shams are rushed of their feet

They say it's hard to take on the big boys but all their runners are well and should be included in exotics

PLC bet:
Ado annie
Brair king

CHELLVAN ABBEY my 4 place bet of the day

My bet for the day ....Blaze of Fire

Iberian Express my place for the first

Hop-it...a place with Johnny Handsome....

Lol

Comments after the race are of course a lot more beneficial than pre-race, especially when you have the fav opening at 12/10 and Striker up.

lol (false!)

No more comments re stables today, promise! lol
