Some cracking races all around the globe today. And some good racing tomorrow, especially for any of my followers who are interested in the trotting racing in France.  The big race on Sunday is the Prix d’Amerique at Vincennes. This race has more betting on it than any of the top thoroughbred races in France, including the Prix d’Arc de Triomphe.  I am not overly familiar myself with the trotting racing in France, but have been told by my friend Laurent Barbarin, who is on Sky racing now as their expert on these races, and the thoroughbreds as well.  Laurent has kindly sent me a link, which gives the runners for this prestigious event:-http://horseraces.pmu.fr/news/2019-prix-damerique-runners

I will ask Laurent about the runners and will advise followers of what he thinks. Hopefully we can find one with a good chance.

Looking at today’s cards,  some decent fields.  At Cheltenham the 12:40 has some useful 4 year olds, who will be having this trial for the Triumph hurdle, hoping to run well and head to the big race in March.  I thought Nelson River at 8/1 was an each way bet, he has to improve to win, but has course form, and is honest. At Doncaster Dynamite Dollars has only to jump round to win the 1:30, he is very short odds to win.

I will update later if something else looks of interest.
