Good morning.
14 points used this week and 13.5 points returned so no damage done on the week either way.
Leviathan just managed to get up on the line for the 2 point win at 7/2 for a 9 point return.
On Friday Noodles Blue Boy ran a great race to finish 2nd at 14/1 for a 4.5 point return and adds another place to his Newcastle record .
Yesterday one of the three selections Edge Closer ran well at a big price for quite a way before fading and could be worth keeping an eye out for I feel. Incredibly my other two selections in that race were unseated riders where there was a clipped heels incident. Thankfully all horses and jockeys ok although David Probert had precautionary x-ray checks.
Friday's other selection Racy was a bit dissapointing back in 6th.
Linnens Star finished down the field in Leviathan's race and perhaps he might be seen at a longer trip next time. He looks well handicapped but might be ready for 10f now ?
