A number of meetings today, 7 if including the two meetings in Ireland at Tramore and Killarney.  Competitive fields at Beverley on the flat, I thought the 4.50 was really tough to solve, for three year olds over 12f.  A number of these are trying the trip for the first time, you have to stay very well at Beverley, as the finish is a gradual climb to the winning post. Nordano has been running well, he was a good second on similar ground last time, that was over 14f, he will have no problem with the drop in trip and should be bang in the mix again today.  Jazz Hands is honest, he should be ok over the extra trip, these are low grade horses, but if they try, which I think the two I have mentioned do, there is always hope for them of getting their head in front.  Casanova looks to have found the right opportunity at 5.25 to get of the mark, this son of Frankel was only just ran out of it last time, Astrologer and Jabalaly could be his biggest rivals.

I am having a few small stakes interest bets only, the rest of the week looks like being a cracking few days racing, York has some really good horses entered. The main race I am looking forward to, is the Dante Stakes on Thursday.

‘ore tomorrow.
