I never used to miss this meeting but these days dont enjoy the travelling.
Sad thing midas is that most of the guys I was pally with are no longer around
either retired or dead,you could say hello to Norrie for me if he is betting there.
Have a good day out and try to finish on the right side. Good luck.[;)]

Analogs thanks, both Hanagan and Fallon win me just over a grand in the
jockeys championship the only difference being that Hanagan's winnings
will be easier to collect.

Thanks for that eck, I always have a crack with Norrie,what a man,to be honest I dont particularly like this meeting,too many families getting in the way,horses out for a gallop,but you never know just sniff about and see what happens.Take care!!Kelso going like so many tracks doing away with the midweek meets replacing with weekend fixtures,understand for financial reasons but can get to busy with boozed up Geordies walking about with their plastic beer glasses,pain!!!

Analogs there must be a rabbit off somewhere because on the surface 7-2 Fallon with
Laddies does seem very generous, I am seriously tempted to go the Fallon way but
the rabbit is worrying me.

Kieren Fallon's desire to regain the jockeys' title burned as brightly as the autumn sun as the in-form rider rattled off another two winners at Ascot yesterday.
Reigning champion Paul Hanagan chose to ride at last night's meeting in Wolverhampton, a regular haunt of Fallon in recent weeks, but failed to land a blow on any of his seven rides.
Clare native Fallon was trailing by 13 at the start of the day and was in playful form, no doubt helped by the successes of Dimension and Mundana.
Both horses were trained by regular Fallon supporters, with James Fanshawe's 3/1 favourite Dimension benefiting from more positive riding to end a frustrating run of seconds in the opening race.
Fallon was required by his main patron, Luca Cumani, for the ride on the progressive filly Mundana (3/1). Now a winner of three of her four starts, she had the EBF Classified Stakes settled with a couple of furlongs to run and was pushed out to beat Fanshawe's Primaeval by a length and a quarter.
"I'm still a long way behind," Fallon said. "I'm enjoying it. Paul's a good fellow and a friend of mine. It's better than if you were riding against someone you weren't on the same terms with."
Fallon also has high hopes of hitting the mark for Cumani at the Berkshire track this afternoon. While last year's Leger hero Arctic Cosmos makes his reappearance in the Cumberland Lodge Stakes, preference is for Fallon's mount Quest For Peace, which is making its debut for the stable.
The Galileo colt began the year with Aidan O'Brien, winning two out of three starts including a Listed race at Roscommon in July. He was subsequently snapped up by OTI Racing, who have shared international success with Cumani through the likes of Bauer, Drunken Sailor and Manighar. Quest For Peace is probably due to tackle similar targets in time but, given his thoroughly progressive profile, he can bag this Group Three on the way.

It looks to me that Fallon compared to Hanagan has nearly twice the meetings to have a go at,
so I have come to the conclusion that 7-2 Fallon is an outstanding price and I am win or lose
going to have a bit of that.[;)]
