I spent a bit of time looking at results from sprints there this year last night.  Really struggling to see any bias.  Of course that doesn't mean there isn't any and you are a better judge of the draw than me.  You have a view at all?  what assumption would you go with?

Ah okay - I get you.  Yes it is certainly possible.  I think it had the benefit of a clever ride and decent draw last time out which isn't as likely this time.  Could obviously win though.

£10e/w Above the Stars @ 7/1

Never have a clue there these days. There's not much in it most of the time on the summer course coz of watering but it's guesswork on this course. It's been random for a few years and there can be as much as ten lengths in it on occasions.

Near side I'll be watching Ridley Didley, who'll prolly tow them for half a mile, then hang left and leave a gap for something. Sounds like a plan anyway.

Not really sure what to make of that.  All barring my initial selection drawn in single figures but none in bottom three.

No more sprints! Ridic! They'll come centre to far side I reckon the rest of the card. Frontrunners day for me.

£10 Dzeko to score first @ 4/1 (moneyback if game goes to extra time) Ladbrokes shops.

Not totally sure on the maths but pretty sure this is better than 5/1 with no concession.  I had to think on my feet as I only noticed it when I was in the shop.

Is it just me or is the racing today as difficult as i have ever seen.  Looks like at least half the horses running at Lingfield and Kempton are making their debuts on the surface which makes it a bit of a lottery.  Studying pedigrees and understanding which horses were likely to act in certain crcumstances used to be one of my strong points but I haven't looked at breeding stats for ages.

Time of the year, another week or two and it should be more clearer on the jumpers.

No real view to be honest.  Only horses I have potentially a bit of interest in backing are Grams and Ounces at Fontwell in the 330.  Think the favourites at Stratford all look very solid if you have a spread account a buy there would give you some interest but beyond that I think I may take rest of day off.  Frankly, it is ridiculous that a man of your stature and means doesn't have a nubile young lady doing the housework ;-)
