Paktolos's (yard not really firing) nearest rival at the weights is Babe Maccool, 11 pounds behind him. Talenti, the third best at the weights, won it. |

Kirklees, has a group 2 to win to his name and is not averse to good to soft going. Has 5 pounds advantage over Jet Away, then it's 2 pounds to Kings Gambit, then 3 pounds to Chock A Block. scrub the rest  Going to have a sheckel or two on Kirklees, and back Chock A Block for a place at 7.0 and hope to trade out in running.  |

1975/76 When we cleared out the upstairs flat at one of our old shops when the tenant died, I found a footie programme. It was of no interest to me so I lobbed it in the skip with the rest of the crap.
It was the 1953 F.A. Cup Final, the only F.A Cup medal that Stanley Matthews ever won. I also found a clip of 303 rifle bullets in the cellar. I lived in Barking at the time so I took them into Barking police station. 'What are they ?' '303 rifle bullets. Clip of 5, for the use of.' He dragged out his official notepad from under the desk. 'Right sir, where did you find them ?' 'In the cellar?' ' The address ?' '145 Balaam Street.' 'I don't know it. Where's that ?' 'Plaistow' Disgruntled look, threw notepad back under desk. 'Why did you bring them here ?' 'I live in Barking.' 'Take them to Plaistow police station.' 'Is that it then?' 'Yes sir. Goodbye' No chance of me walking into Plaistow nick with a clip or rifle bullets. [smiley:crazy] They ended up in the River Lea. |

2-40 Leicester (seller)
No surprise that Fault comes out best at the weights, with Saigon Kitty 4 pounds behind. Dark Moment and Rising Kheleyf come in level at a further 3 pounds behind. The rest are a further 4 pounds or worse beind this pair. One of the newspapers has napped Scooby Dee. He must have a had a nod from the stable as it's 20 pounds 'wrong' with the favourite, or his lucky pin is broken.  According to the Sporting Life high numbers are favoured on the straight course Fault is drawn 1, so I'll leave that alone. For what it's worth, Saigon Kitty, drawn 10 is worth a place bet at around 3.6, but it was 2.5 last night and people were backing it. Not a good sign. Dark Moment, drawn 13, will do for me for a place, at around 2.34 And a lay of the favourite for a sheckel or two. |

Easy Terms comes out best at the weights, with 6 pounds in hand of Country Road and 4 pounds in hand of Bondage, but he has never won a race. Wears a visor for the first time today. Winner or not, his place price of 4.6 looks too generous to me. Must be able to trade shorter in running, shirley. Into The light gets in 4th best, and is worth a lay in the place market at about 2.6 as there are only 7 runners. |

Not really a fan of these races, but a cursory glance has Long Lashes getting the vote over Super Sleuth and Za Za Zoom I think Decorative is worth a lay at around 2/1 Thoe other 4 just here to make up the numbers (famous last words) [smiley:crazy][smiley:crazy] |

DEFINITE misprint on the Sporting Life webpage. ImPOSSIBLE for Super Frank to have an official rating of 70. 50 would be closer. |

4-05 Lingfield (claimer)
At the weights Perfect Friend is a definite lay, 7 of the other 11 runners have weight in hand on official ratings. Shark Man comes out best with 2 pounds in hand of I Confess 5 pounds behind these is Fol Liam, who seems to have his own ideas about racing, and the best of the rest is Kings Sabre. How did somebody get over 6/1 a place for I Confess ??? [smiley:crazy] |

4-40 Lingfield (division 2 of prdvious claimer)
A close affair with only 5 pounds separating 7 of the 9 runners Preferred in this order : The Winged Assassin (4.5) Dvinsky (12.0) Rubenstar (8.2) Another Magic Man (11.0) Lady Kent (5.0) Hierarch (4.2) and Wise Up (30.0) level Scrub the other two The Winged Assassin at around 1.9 for a place, for me. Will lay Hierarch for a sheckel or two along the way. |

Got out of trouble with Winged Assassin Didn't get out of trouble with Hierarch. Layed it at 3.75, it went to 5.6 in running, but facking about with 2 screens it's hard to watch the race and go from place market to win market fast enough in 7 furlongs. |

And we're back
after a distinct shortage of claimers and sellers these past few days.MONDAY 2-30 Windsor - 6 furlong claimer Fat Boy has an official rating of 100, and has won off a mark of 112. It hasn't won for 2 years!! At these weights, if they can be believed, he should win this by at least 6 lengths. [smiley:crazy][smiley:crazy] Had a sheckel at 5.0 or thereabouts, hope it trades shorter in running. He last ran in a Listed race 14 months ago, and is now in a claimer. Has had his nuts chopped off and left Chapple-Hyams yard, and is with Amy Weaver, whoever she is [smiley:crazy] J.P. 'Camembert' is on board. There is, supposedly, a slight advantage to high numbers in sprints and Fat Boy is drawn 15. However, if we leave Fat Boy alone and try to find a place bet, with only 3 places paid with a 16 runner field of mostly glue factory candidates, the rest of the the nags are preferred in this order, with the draw in brackets after the horses name Fat Boy (15) and these 3 should be clear Sunrise Safari (8) Vhujon (9) Kings Wonder (6) with this lot fighting for 5th Victorian Bounty (3) Cape Melody (2) Universal Circus (11) Cerito (12) Scrub the other 8 hosses The BF win and place prices on offer at the moment, are, as you'd expect, daft, and we shall have to see what tomorrow brings. AFTERTIMERS DEPT Forgot to post todays each way hope, Game Lad, only raced 3 times on heavy going and won 3 times. It got 4th in a 15 runner handicap, but there were 16 this morning, so I got paid the place part. BF place price was 4.9 |
