Race 1 The Silver Wokingham Handicap – 6 Furlongs #3 Count D’orsay – likes to get his toe in, had a nice pipe-opener, and Tim Easterby is a past master with this sort of horse. #12 Woven an interesting one, too, at a nice price. Add #3 Magical wish to the mix at 10-1, given […]

Race 1 – The Palace of Holyrod house handicap – 5 furlongs #3 Golden Dragon 10-1 has some very good juvenile form. Probably a bit over-priced considering what he’s done. Same goes for #8 Classy Moon 15-1, who’s having his first run since being gelded. Race 2 – The G3 Albany 6 furlongs Wide-open looking […]

Race 1) The Silver Royal Hunt cup – 1 Mile on the straightaway #14 Salayal 12-1 — relatively unexposed, open to improvement, off a good weight, and trainer in good form. Add to that Nazeef won the Duke of Cambridge yesterday!!! Bit of a crap-shoot this race (divided Hunt Cup), though. #17 Maydanny 10-1 Crowley […]

Race1) Dirt 1 Mile|3lcMd 12500(12.5-10.5)|Purse: $17k #8) Crystalina – Not too sure about why they dropped this guy in distance last time? Comes back on short rest with a tepid gate work.
