In the speeday tonight

Like the look of Chris Harris to reach the semi's at 5/2 with Skybet (still in touch to reach the Top 8 and rides the track well). Him to win heat 5 at 5/1 against Jonsson, Iverson and Lindgren would not be a shock either (he's only best priced 4/1 to win a heat against Jason Crump later so that puts 5/1 to beat competitors who are of a lesser standard than him in perspective).

Crump should win but no value and Sayfutdinov's temprement makes him poor value at 3/1. Wild card Grigory Laguta could be the surprise packet at 40/1 or Kenneth Bjerre who rode well in the World Cup at 33/1.

3:05 Moneycantbuymelove & 4:50 Goodwood Laylas Hero will probably be 2 horses for me in a Lucky 30 today but looking for another two

The stands side rail has been riding particularly fast all season - we've seen a number of examples of this all week, most notably the 1-2-3 in the King George Sprint running from stalls 1, 2 and 3. This particular horse runs well at Goodwood and in big sprints and despite losing his action last time out is only 4lbs higher than when winning at Bath earlier in the season - at 50/1 and in stall 3 with pace through Fishforcompliments in amongst the low drawn horses Osiris Way is the one for me.

Even worse than Abbey Express?????

TBF it led for quite some way in one of the races. Whilst backing it has probably been mug punting (and fortunately for small stakes), I would say that within the first twenty minutes of the Saints v Wigan game it was obvious I was way off the mark.

I was worse with Keighley they had conceded 3 or 4 tries in the 15 minutes after I tipped them up






Enjoyed the Wigan v Saints game but can not help hoping it is not the Challenge Cup Final (and not just because I'm on Huddersfield!!!!)

Couldn't get on earlier but I've had a great day so far with Zacinto (5/2) and Midday (11/2) really need my NAP of the day Cesare to win the 4.30 at Newmarket for a very nice day indeed.

Also on Jimmy Styles at 16's in the Steward's, don't know why but I spent ages and ages looking through the race and kept coming back to Jimmy!

I was on Zacinto too. Can't believe that some 7/2 was available shortly before post time.

Black Quartz looks a certainty in the next at Galway.
