Newbury selections Friday 28th November Newbury’s big jumps meeting of the year starts off on Friday with some interesting contests. I have no strong opinion in the big Grade 2 Hurdle, so will instead concentrate on two tight handicaps either side of the feature. We had an excellent Saturday...
Ascot & Haydock selections Saturday 22nd November Top class jumps racing everywhere you look and the Betfair Chase represents the first Grade 1 contest in Britain this season. There are some excellent handicaps though at Haydock that I will be concentrating on, whilst the best bet of the day...
Cheltenham selections Sunday 16th November The final day of the Cheltenham November meeting and the Sunday provides the traditional feature of the Greatwood Hurdle. Rather like the Paddy Power yesterday, the race probably lacks a horse that could improve into Grade 1 company during the season, but the race...
Doncaster, Aintree & Wincanton selections Saturday 8th November We finally wave goodbye to the flat season at Doncaster this afternoon (at least on turf) with the traditional final meeting run on traditionally heavy November ground. I have two selections who will have no issues with the testing going. Elsewhere...
Ascot & Wetherby selections Saturday 1st November The jumps season really starts to take precedence now as we move into November and we have three really big meetings to get stuck into. Down Royal provides the first Grade 1 action of the winter, but I am concentrating on a...

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...
Newmarket & Haydock selections Saturday 27th September One of the big handicaps of the season, the Cambridgeshire, takes place at Newmarket this afternoon, but with a field size somewhat reduced from the norm. It will still take plenty of winning, but I am relying on just the one bet....
