It Takes Two to Tango in the eight bells with two previous CD winners, Robert Havlin returns on Arlecchinos Gift who has gone close recently 0nly beaten a 1/2 and 3/4 lengths and runs tonight off the same mark.

In-form trainer Mark Usher who has a RTF of 86% in the past 14 days could of opted for Tyler Heard's 3lb claim having won a couple for the stable lately  but hopefully the connections think Havlin's experience will win the day.

The 4yr old filly White Mist trained by Mrs Ilka Gansera-Leveque and ridden by George Wood again with the trainer having a RTF of 100% in the past 14 days albeit with three horses.
The grey has been transformed by the visor in her last two starts finishing first and then second over CD only going down by a length to Beauzon who went on to success in his next two races rising to 10lbs higher in his last race.

White Mist WON 5/1
Arlecchinos Gift  2nd 11/2

Well done on the forecast, Billy

Thanks GEORGE B, madhatters..  Good luck lads..

The 4yr old filly Back Tomorrow is very lightly raced with only 6 runs to her name and winning one from two on the AW including over CD in December for Mr Walker.
Jason Hart takes over from a decent draw and while a few look well treated there are not many in form.

Ian Williams 5yr old bay El Hibri has been successful twice at 6f including over CD at the start of the month. Back to some form 4 days ago after rearing at the start previously at Newcastle, didn't have a clear run for today's jockey Clifford Lee last time and another who hopefully will benefit for a return to The Minster of Southwell..

Well done on the double and passing 100 pts profit, Billy.

From November..

I am having another bet with my old bookie mate who I met first day at work in the early 70's, his Dad was the main bookie in Fords Halewood when over 12,000 worked there and he later followed suit.

We are going with our families to Royal Ascot and I have to achieve 50pts level stakes profit to £30 a bet by then, he is giving me BOG and I have a £2000 bank. We are 1-1 with previous bets..


I woke up to a text from my mate saying he's conceded, because I send my bet and price to him and then post on here my real profit is 38pts to 1pt level stakes with him.

Looks like the increased stake done the trick this time but it could of gone the other way.

                                                                    Good luck all..

v.w.d. Billy

Thanks Stewart's rise, N e C and madhatters.. Bob Paisley liked a bet and was friendly with a couple of North East trainers.
Good luck all, let you know what Royal Ascot is like on the Tuesday.
My mates coming around tonight to watch the match and bring my winnings. Said he needs securicor but I'm sure he hasn't lost out, he's a big backer..

Thanks LHF, great name..

Still feeling rough after a night of football, bacardi, kebab meat, cards and Soul music..

                                                   God, we are gonna miss Jurgen..
