Kempton selections Saturday 10th January Despite the loss of Warwick and Fairyhouse today, we still have a good jumps card at Kempton to look forward to with the Lanzarote Hurdle a definite highlight. Trainer Dan Skelton will be looking to add to his sizable lead in the trainers title...
Sandown selections Saturday 3rd January Happily despite the cold weather, the big fixture at Sandown has survived the frost and we hope for some decent afternoon action over the jumps. I have selections from three races where the focus is on the veteran horses, including the final of the...
Cheltenham selections Thursday 1st January A Happy New Year to all and we get immediately down to business for 2026 with a busy programme on January 1st. As is traditional the fixture at Cheltenham takes centre stage and I have selections for three races on the Prestbury Park card....

Aintree & Sandown selections Saturday 6th December Plenty of high class racing to enjoy once more on Saturday with some quality jumps action at both Sandown and Aintree. The highlight might well be the chance to see the National fences in action once more, where a horse high on...
