With the amount of posts since i went to bed i think i will merge the racing threads ha ha

Awesome Adam... probably the safest bet today ?

with a very difficult looking P6 card i'm forced to view this card as a 5 legged P6 and hope that Adam will be Awesome !

I make Ryder a big runner in the third however money is coming for the stable companion from a wide draw. R has the stable jock on who I would think had choice of rides. R ran two lengths off shot gun rider lto who beat together forever by 4 lto. Keen to have a bet but wary as the comment will probably be again "not stable money" and then shit in lol.

Iv taken bipot and JP p6 way too hard

Son of Approval to mug him on the line. Is hard t believe Rakes Chestnut went down a shorthead to Legislate in the Daily News (I think??) ... and now 3/1 available in a "B" division race :woohoo:

Both local cards are very uninspiring. Playing race by race in the hope of catching a money horse right. Think lots will be pinning their hopes on Awesome Adam.

Sterling Heights was drawn deepest on debut when dropping out and running on in a fair maiden field. The extra distance today will suit, jockey will know her better and gets the 1 draw.

Awesome Adam will probably prefer the drop in distance as last looked a touch too far, but price a bit short currently.

Ahlaam's last run was over a bit far when setting the pace for stable companion. Before that had a lengthy spell of bad draws in stronger fields than today and gets the opportunity to improve into the money from a 1 draw over a suitable cd and off a reduced MR. Previous start this cd was second to St Tropez.

I like your thinking Tim. My little rating system has Ahlaam second best bet of the day (behind Vision of Dahlia)..... My 5 legged yankee for the day is
