Mijhaar tomorrow in the 2.25 looks well and truly chucked in off a mark of 96

Well backed in the G2 King Edward Stakes at Royal Ascot last time - went off 10/3 2ndfav behind Nathaniel but got a strange ride when taken extremely wide down the back when racing a bit keen when getting cover in the pack would have surely been more advisable

Stil travelled up extremely eyecathingly into the straight(traded at a low of 2.2i/r) before tiring late on - drops down 2f in trip tomorrow to 1m2f which looks sure to suit

This is a much weaker affair tomorrow and he looks massive value i think at 11/4 off a mark which looks very reasonable - would nt be surprised to see him going off 7/4 or less


A very good card there tomorrow

harbour watch in the 3.35 takes my eye bjg....hannons 2yos are starting to really come to themselves ..with his huge army of 2yo i think him running this one is a tip in itself...

10's bar top man on bord and Varian has impressd so far....a likeable trainer as well......JULY CUP looks like its going to be a very ordinary renewal......I did fancy Star Witness for it but a tough 6f could find him out again......Godolphin are very bullish re the Fav .....Delegator......

Harbour Watch is Hannon's best two-year-old. Was told this before his win at Salisbury. The 7/2 is a massive price for tomorrow and I hope he wins Happy

Good stuff lads. I backed Mijhaar at Ascot. Very strange ride.
Redwood should have enough ability to win the POW. 
Lashing rain there now apparently.

Hope ur on again Giant this rain suits Mijaar.....but does it suit Hannons  2yr old......??

No thanks Jay. A 1st and 2nd in the first two races. So I`ll wait for Redwood and this Hannon thing. It was wet at Salisbury when it won.
Good luck!

Like Five Star junior e/w in the 4.40

A Cd winner around this time last season off a 1lb higher mark - has run some decent races off higher marks than this and looked to be coming back into form last time and the booking of KF must be a positive

5/1 e/w looks fair

Saphresa my Nap today in wat looks a well below par Falmouth

Already a 2 time winner at the track in the G1 Cherry Hinton and the Sun Chariot

Was a very impressive winner on her seasonal debut in a G3 at Longchamp beating Mdnight Cloud who won a G3 nto

Think 5/2 is very fair




The Sun Chariot is a very tight lookin affir - like most i did a nice bit on Shumoos at Ascot but i cant blame the draw

7-3-4-11-2 were the stall numbers of the first 5 home so a was nt a bad draw imo


I have had a small bit e/w on Sajwah at 40/1 e.w

Impressed me on debut before finishing in midfield at Ascot after racing very keenly - overpriced here i think

Delighted for Queally cos he has got an unmercyful slagging on here for trying to slip the field too early and have nothing left in a few races this season.
He took the race by the bull of the horn two out and rode Lemaire to sleep.

No complaints with that one lads. It was always a sitting duck for the winner. What I do complain about is that it was one of 6 2nds I had again today! Some day.....Plain
Thankfully Albaasil and Hanagan at York got me out of trouble. Very frustrating though.
Great shout BJG. He rode the rest to sleep. I couldn`t understand why they all went far side. Was it not obvious to them after 2 days of racing!?
