York selections Wednesday 19th August The North stages arguably its biggest fixture of the season this week with the Ebor fixture at York. After two months of non stop heat and sun, this week looks somewhat different and the card could even kick off on the soft side of...
Goodwood selections Saturday 1st August The final day at Goodwood and the prevailing fast ground will very much remain for a day where the Stewards Cup will take centre stage. I have two selections for the feature, plus selections from two other races on the card. Goodwood 1.50: Aeronautic...
Goodwood selections Friday 31st July Some cracking handicaps to enjoy at Goodwood on Friday, starting with one of the longest races on the calendar, the 2m4f contest, plus the Golden Mile, always one of the most competitive races of the week. Our placed each-way bets continued on Thursday at...
Goodwood & Galway selections Thursday 30th July The Festival meetings at Galway and Goodwood reach the halfway stage today and I have selections from a big handicap on each card. Hawksbill was placed for the each-way wager at Goodwood yesterday (9/1). Goodwood 1.50: Decade of Time In truth this...
