On official ratings, GOLDEN ACE (below) should not be as long as 25-1. 15/8 The New Lion 159 9/4 Anzadam 157 25/1 Golden Ace 152 + 7lb mares' allowance 159.

1.40 Newmarket Best of the Brits against Bengal Tiger, according to Topspeed, are LEX VICTORIA abd SAN JOSE. I have backed both e.w.

To make it clearer Which jockey riding at the BC today & yesterday won at Brighton and Windsor on a horse owned by an England International that played for ⚽️. He was a 7lb claimer at the time and rode 20+ winners at 4 tracks: Yarmouth, Wolves, Lingfield, Kempton

Breeders Cup question Which BC jockey - when he was a 7lb claimer - rode a horse to win at Windsor and Brighton for an England international that played for Chelsea? #breederscup

A funny start betting-wise. I really like @WetherbyRaces - everything about it - but rarely back a winner there. Today has been no different. Not a fan of Uttoxeter but Topspeed had Looking As You Are (15-2) & Las Canals (16-1) top on latest wins. Needed that win. Phew!

12.35 HOLD THE SERVE is a winner bar a fall, surely? S Bowen v Gillard, Carver Murphy v McCain, Fry 130 v 123, 115 The only one with chasing experience. ...........

Cold autumnal day here in sunny Central France. 🌞

Lewis Edmunds' record at Newmarket is dreadful. ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL. That seems to have been taken accounted for in HIGH SUMMER'S odds of 7/1 (12.05 ), as his debut run at Salisbury was at least as promising as Solo Quest was at Yarmouth. A decent e.w. bet at around 7-1

Look Back Smiling I've known @Neil_Mulholland a long time, going back to his days with Paul Keane. He is properly shrewd and his training of Bath winner Look Back Smiling is a good example. A really nice guy.

LEO PHELPS 1.46 @NottsRacecourse The Topspeed figures of those he beat were well above average. Five winning siblings over 7f+ I know it is on soft but he should have a good future, I would have thought.

Zionism is a long-term own goal. As is any religion-based government. Rulers/Presidents whose power comes from a fanatical base can not govern fairly on behalf of the whole population.

Don Cantillon has still got it. He has always placed his horses well when he thinks he has one that can win a race. ALWAYS PROUD was 7th in Newbury's £100,000 bumper in March. 💰

1.35 @MarketRasenRace SEE BLUE only raced over 1m on the Flat. He is 9-2 to beat Don Dandy and Minella Buoy who both have hurdling experience. Seems a big ask to me despite his being rated 86 as a miler.

O'Moore Park 25-1 0-13 in chases for Willie Mullins Wins at Cheltenham @KeighleyTeam

Well done DAILY EXPRESS and TOPSPEED [ew] with KINGOFTHEFRONTIER 20-1. Pretty damn good. A far superior Topspeed figure at Southwell 117 to the favourite at Chepstow 106. @NRandonFactor

Au revoir Flat and jumps at Meral. 😢 A specialist trotting track from January having staged flat, jumps and trotting since August 1947. @SimonHolt3

VAR altering the course of yet another game. Bayern 0 Arsenal 1.

For those interested . . . AI reveals 60% of racing bets struck in France are on Trotting. 30% are on the Flat 10% are on steeplechasing, hurdles, Xcountry. Helps understand why we are where we are.
