Ascot selections Saturday 18th October The official end of the flat season in Britain sees a star studded cast of equine talent for an unusually fast ground Champions Day. I have selections from three races on the card and this looks a day to take on some of the...
Selections for Saturday 11th October We are really beginning to get going over jumps now with the extended three day meeting at Chepstow the traditional kick starter to the winter season. Sadly fast ground is likely to lead to plenty of withdrawals this afternoon, but the feature race still...
Ascot selections Saturday 4th October This is not one of the big weekends of action in the UK, with some big action taken across the channel at Paris Longchamp. However today’s card at Ascot is always very competitive and I think there might be an additional angle to use...

York selections Saturday 23rd August The fourth and final – and surely best day on the Knavesmire with an absolutely cracking card to enjoy, highlighted by a vintage renewal of the Ebor with any number of quality horses that can be given a chance. Due to its openness, I...
York selections Friday 22nd August Day three at York and the big highlight is the Nunthorpe over the flying five with a huge field assembled given the lack of a superstar sprinter this season. My two fancies are Irish fillies who should appreciate the flat track and fast ground....
