Needed Flemenstar after Wednesday, got my losses back! Far too good for them - this certainly is one with a big future. Forget he's from a small yard, he is gonna be a hell of a horse in open company next season.

Oscar's Well today.

High class as a novice and been steadily progressing this term, and this step back up in trip looks set to suit. 7/4 a decent price. Get Me Out of Here will be a danger but is a bit of a bridesmaid, won't go down without a fight though as he has some decent form in him, just don't think he's much value at 15/8 - 7/4.

Tempted to double with Zomerlust, who is a mile clear on figures, but not sure if 10 year old's in sellers are the most reliable! He's obviously on the down, but should still have enough to win this - his nearest rival is rated 18lb less and effectively gives him 9lbs when the respective weight difference and claims are taken into account.

Oscar's Well was bloody awful, even conceding weight should've ran far better than that - disappointing to say the least. Very overrated horse, always thought he could win a race at g2 at open company, obviously not. No wonder chasing in the autumn is the plan.

Won it back on Zomerlust and an extra few quid.

One of those afternoons...

Lost a little bit on Steps To Freedom - was just a small, gut bet, nothing fancy. So decided to have a couple of quid on Balnaslow in the bumper - hype horse was favourite Teelin Star but didn't fancy it odds on in a flat race based on points form, looked like it needed a obstacle to jump too as he got a bit lazy at the end. Balnaslow was going much the best coming round the bend, but a Gigginstown horse came out of nowhere and they got into a right battle, with the Gigginstown horse prevailing by around a short head - thought great, typical luck. Stewards enquiry went on for ages and eventually the places reversed, bit of luck for once

Pearl Swan in the 4yo... Already beaten Gremeti giving weight, hurdle course at Aintree favours held up horses. Also French bred, British bred have a poor record.

Carruthers in the bowl. Nice record 2nd time out after a break, acts on the course, will love the softened ground, and blinkers and tongue tie suggest he will front run. Will fc with What a Friend.

Peptite Rose in the Manifesto. Gets a useful 7lb from Al Ferof, could prove useful against a hold up horse in soft ground.
