Great result today at Market Rasen. L’inganno Felice won the 188Bet Handicap hurdle, I advised my subscribers to back him each way,  on Friday at 12/1 , he returned at 8s, so always useful to back a WINNER when you have heard that the horse was in great form from the trainer.  He made all the running, and galloped on strongly when asked to go and win the race by young Ross Chapman.  Market Rasen was always a track I used to go to when I was very young with my father, as he was from Lincolnshire, and he enjoyed taking us to the races whenever he could. It was always a lucky track for me when I was a jockey, I probably rode more winners their than anywhere !

The football was good today here in Guernsey.  My son has 3 games tomorrow morning, they need a couple of wins to progress to the next round, 3 draws today, and 3 defeats.  The loss against Everton was a reality check ! They were really good, all of them were technically good, apparently they train 3/4 days a week together, and are not allowed to play for anyone else, including their school team ! And these kids are 9 years old.
