The Doncaster St Leger meeting has seen pleny of good racing in the past few days. Today’s card is the highlight with the St Leger taking place at 3:35. The turnout this afternoon is disappointing. Three, five runner races whilst the last sees a matchup. The St leger only sees eight runners take their chance. Logician is the short-priced favourite and rightly so. This son of Frankel is unbe...

We head to Newton Abbot this afternoon with Black Anthem who is bidding to land a hat-trick of wins in the 3:00. Black Anthem has been a super horse for us since we claimed him for 6k. He's going up in the weights after winning three times already, this will catch up with him at some point. Black Anthem must give a hefty amount of weight away to a few of these. If we can grab another win that wo...

Good racing today up and down the country. Haydock holds a great card of racing where the ground is soft. That’s a shame as some class horses haven’t been declared, I suppose it’s getting to that time of the year though. We head to Stratford with a runner, Competition takes his chance in the feature race at 4:35, a 0-150 Handicap Hurdle. Competition ran a cracker last Sunday wh...

We have a runner at Worcester this afternoon, Competition takes his chance in the 5:10. Just the five horses line-up in a competitive little race. Course specialist, Hallings Comet loves it around here, a six-time winner that tends to make all. Competition must give him a fair chunk of weight whilst Excellent Team won well last time out. Solstalla has been supported in the betting. Competition i...

Sandown host a good card of racing this afternoon. The Group 3 Atalanta Stakes for Fillies & Mares at 3:00 and the Solario Stakes at 3:35 would be the highlights. It’s not easy to get away from the chances of Jubiloso in the Atlanta stakes, she’s a short price but her form is someway above her rivals. Jubiloso was unlucky not to win at Goodwood and would have done so in a few more...

Black Anthem won again for us and his owners at Newton Abbot on Thursday. It was a routine win, Black Anthem never came off the bridle and scored easily under Charlie Hammond. This win, was his third form just four starts since we claimed the horse for £6000. We thought there could be more to come from Black Anthem and he could be a big improver. He’s proven to be a great piece of bus...

The York Ebor Festival started yesterday and had some super racing on offer. Logician was very impressive and could develop into one of the best stayers with seen for some time. At just three years of age, he can only get better and must have a grand chance if running in the St Leger. Japan & Crystal Ocean had ding dong battle in the Juddmonte, with Japan just getting his head in front where ...

We head back down to Newton Abbot this afternoon with another runner in Devon. I might have to think about moving if this keeps up! Irska runs in the first race at 5:35. Irska looks up against it this evening, he’s a horse that we’re still getting to know whilst requires a fence and a trip. His entire family were long distance staying chasers that ran in the likes of the Scottish &...

We had a good day at Newton Abbot on Wednesday, a winner and a second place from two runners. Black Anthem won his second race for us from just three starts. We claimed Black Anthem a few months ago for 6k, the horse has now paid for himself and is giving his owners some great fun. Competition bumped into one on the day, finishing 8 lengths clear of the third horse. Competition ran very well but ...

Jumps racing starts back today after a break, we have two runners. Newton Abbot & Worcester hold fixtures. The going is likely to be soft at both meetings and not quite what’s expected in the middle of August. Competition is our first runner in the 4:10 at Newton Abbot. Competition was pulled up last time out, losing his place quickly when seemingly going nicely. Nothing has come to lig...

We’ve had no runners this week with the National Hunt racing taking a break. Work doesn’t come to a halt though as the Goffs, Doncaster sales took place on Wednesday. We pleasingly secured the horse we wanted at the sale, Hugo ‘N Taz. I was very close to buying this horse last year in a private deal, but we couldn’t quite get it over the line. Hugo ‘N Taz is a long-d...

We have a runner at Market Rasen this afternoon, this is the last jumps meeting for over a week as a National Hunt break starts from tomorrow. Irska runs in the 1:50, Gavin Sheehan rides. Irska is a nice young horse for the future, he’s going to be a long-distance staying chaser on soft ground. Irska is bred for a trip, his relatives ran in the likes of the Welsh & Scottish National pl...

A nice comeback ride for William Buick yesterday on Lazuli who won with any amount in hand. I heard this was the horse William didn’t want to miss and planned on riding. Lazuli looks smart whilst it's great to see William back in the saddle, hopefully he can kick on now. I’ve stayed clear of Goodwood all week, it’s been a bogey meeting for me over the years. For what it’s...

We have a runner at Bangor this afternoon in the 2:10, Aldrin takes his chance with Tom Scudamore in the saddle. Aldrin or Buzz as we call him ran a nice race on seasonal debut last time out finishing 3rd. We were keen to run again before the National Hunt break kicks in from Monday, this race was the only real option. Aldrin runs over 2m3f furlong today, he’ll have to prove he gets this fa...

We have a runner this afternoon at Newton Abbot, Included runs in the 4:45. We had a few other options for Included but the midlands area was hit by 3 inches of rain in the past 48 hours. This has resulted in soft ground at other racecourses. Newton Abbot missed the rain, so we run here as Included needs quick ground. Included enjoys a big open galloping track so Newton Abbot might not suit, we&r...

Plenty of good flat racing today, Ascot, York, Chester & Newmarket all hold meetings. Most eyes will be on Ascot where Enable runs in the Group 1 King George And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at 3:40. Enable is one of the best mares’ we’ve ever seen, it would be great for racing if she can get her head in front again this afternoon. Crystal Ocean will ensure Enable doesn’t have thi...
