The racing is back in full swing spectators or not. Normal service as regards poor entries for good races like a £10,400 prize money handicap for 3yr olds, with just 5 runners. Don't listen when the trainers and owners say that they need funds if they cannot turn out for top money races. Royal Ascot starts on Tuesday and we will see how many runners the races attract then. Had to cast a wide net today looking for a bit of value, and have done the ITV7 cos it is free. Also done a little double at Doncaster on a couple of horses I had in "my stable" in Gossip 12.30 and King's Pavilion 3.25. The latter is at 33/1 and I have had a little e/w punt on it. My main bet is.
Impressor @9/2 2.05 Sand.
Miss Celestial @7/2 2.25 Newb.
Qawamees @9/1 4.20 Sand.
Gin Palace @8/1 4.45 Newb.
£1.00 e/w Acca. 30p Doubles and Trebles.
The ITV7 is the top 2 with Gold Souk 1.50Nb, Sunday Sovereign 2.40S, Franconia (Dettori's only ride) 3.00Nb, Solid Stone 3.13S, & Century Dream 3.35 Nb. May have a little punt on that last one later it is currently 7/1. Good Luck if you have a go.
P.S. Did You see that the good Doctor had a 10/1 winner late on a Newbury yesterday Ken? Restorer.
@17.26.Yes, you are quite correct,Ken.Me and lesser half will start following and betting on McDonalds mounts.He owes us,he had better not let us down again.
I would also suggest you scrap the trebles, too. Maybe trixies (2 winners and you're drawing) or a patent. Especially if you're getting half-decent prices. Only one thing as bad as getting first 2 in and 3rd one losing and that's first one losing and next two coming in ;-)
