Really pleased to get my subscribers a winner yesterday.  Thistle Do Nicely 12:55 Wetherby was a ready winner, advised at 6/4, he was well backed into a shade of odds on.

Hopefully November can be a good month, October was a difficult month, it is tricky betting on the flat at the end of a long season, many horses are in need of a break, and can run well below par.

The Breeders Cup meeting at Churchill Downs last night was a good meeting for the horses from the UK.  Enable won well last night under regular jockey Frankie Dettori, she is exceptionally good. Flamboyant Italian Dettori had earlier won the Breeders Cup Mile on Turf,  on Expert Eye, he is trained by Sir Michael Stoute in Newmarket, and owned by the same owner as Enable, Khaled Abdullah from Saudi Arabia, so a real international bag !

Today racing looks pretty good in Ireland at Naas and Cork, where some strongly contested jump races, the 2:10, which is a Novice Chase will be a good race, Winter Escape has too find some improved form to beat likely favourite Robin De Foret, I think it will be a tight race. I was really impressed with Royal Illusion 4:25 Cork, she bolted in on her racecourse debut 19 days ago, she is short odds, but quite rightly so.

Looking at today’s racing.  Some good competitive races at most of the tracks, a pretty normal Saturday.  I try and give a free each way tip on a Saturday, as fields are quite small apart from Newmarket, I will try and give a free selection. I am looking at Newmarket 2:35, Mannal was a good winner last time, not each way price, but her stable are in top form, she will take a bit of beating.

At the Breeders Cup meeting, it was good to see Line Of Duty win last night, I mentioned him yesterday, he had to overcome a stewards inquiry.  He was given a good ride by William Buick to win, his horse did bump the second, but it was almost on the winning line, and was clearly the best horse in the race. Tonight sees Enable at 8:56, she will be looking at following up from her recent win in France.  It would be good to see her win again.  The main race is the 9:44, the Breeders Cup Classic on dirt, as I am not familiar with dirt American form, it’s hard to know what wins.  Catholic Boy would be my small investment if I have a bet.

A late post today.  Looking at the Breeders Cup meeting tonight.  The races are ultra competitive.  I think Sergi Perkerov in the 7:21 sprint has a good chance for Aiden O’ Brian , he will get a fast pace to aim at.  It is the warm up meeting tonight for tomorrow really, but great prize money on offer , somsome good horses on show.  Charlie Appleby will be hoping Line Of Duty can handle loose turf conditions to win in the Mile two year old race,  Anthony Van Dyk has a poor draw to overcome to try and win in the same race.

I will post more later.

Looking at tonight’s evening meeting at Wolverhampton.  Some competitive races, the 7:15 is a fillies Novice Stakes.  Dreaming Away has attracted some interest in the betting, she has been backed from 7/1 into 3/1, she must be well regarded, he trainer Simon Crisford has his horses in good shape.  Sun Hat is another with a good chance for Crisford in the 8:15 race.  October has been a hard month to back winners, a lot of big priced winners on the flat, and the jump race meetings are only just starting to get going.

Roll on November !

Quite late post today.  I was looking at the race meetings earlier , trying to find a winner looked difficult.  I had an interest in one in the 2:15 at Redcar, who ran far too keen in the early stages of the 1m 6f trip, he faded in the latter stages, if they don’t relax they don’t get home , especially on rain softened ground.

Some competitive races at Chelmsford tonight.  I do think that some of the races are pretty tough to solve,  the first race is interesting, I thought L’Un Deaux Trois has each way chances, he ran well on grass recently.  It has a hot favourite in Say The Word, whose trainer Simon Crisford has his horses in really good from.

Late post today. Pleased to get a nice winner today for my subscribers, San Donato 1:45 Doncaster was advised at 5/2 this morning.  He won well, backed into 2/1 after a slight drift to 3/1 at one stage.  I usually like to try and give an each way free tip on Saturday for followers, apologies for missing out with a selection today, as I was at a football tournament.

I will try and give a free tip in the week.  Good luck with the rest of today.

Fair amount of rain around most of the race meetings earlier today.  Looking at the Doncaster racing, which is good to soft at the moment, Solid Stone 2:25 can be expected to improve for his run 34 days ago, he should have a good chance of winning today. After a shower of rain this morning at Cheltenham, where the ground is good, I do like Go Another One in the 2:00.

More later.

I looked at today’s meetings and thought that it could be a favourites day at Exeter.  I missed backing Bradford Bridge 2:50, he was 4/6 when I left my house, and was shocked with his price, he won after drifting to evens !

Looking at the later races at Kempton tonight, Fox Campion 7:10 has drifted to 5/2 from 7/4.  He was heavily backed on debut, second that day, running a promising race.  He has a live chance, obviously the favourite, Evasive Power is the one to beat, I think it will be a good race, both are nice types.

More later.

Late post today.  I have just seen the 6:10 at Kempton, and Jirnass who finished third was coming with a strong run under Jim Crowley, he was looking like possibly winning,  or he would of been a close second, when he went wrong in the last 75 yards of the race.  Crowley tried to pull him up when it happened, hopefully it is not a career elder.  A lot of runners in the race were given tender rides ! I actually had backed London Eye each way, he was given a very ‘considerate ‘ ride, and is one to follow when he gets a handicap mark.

The remainder of tonight’s races look pretty competitive.  Silver River will be very short odds in the 8:10, he looks as though he has a good opportunity of getting off the mark.

Pleased to get a winner from my selection yesterday for my subscribers.  Normal Norman 2:15 Market Rasen,  was advised at 5/4 yesterday morning, he was well supported in the betting, he returned at 10/11, winning quite cosy was good.

Well Cracksman turned up in spades yesterday at Ascot.  He was a very easy winner of the 10f Champion Stakes, the second time he has won the race, he galloped on strongly when asked by Dettori to go and win his race about 2f out,  he will now head to Stud to be a Stallion.

Quick ground at Kempton today.  The jump trainers want a little bit of rain, it is pretty dry for October.  A couple of well contested hurdle races.  Verdanna Blue looks to have a good chance of making a winning start to her 18/19 National Hunt season, she was a recent winner on the flat, so is fit.

More later.
