1.00pm Haydock - Waterlord 2pts Win (2/1) Donald McCain has been in good form as of late with 6 winners from his last 27 runners, including a treble at this track last Saturday.

1.20pm Kempton - Tommy Silver 2pts Win (3/1) Tommy Silver was a decent enough hurdler last season, but his future was always going to be over the larger obstacles. In his three starts over fences to date he has shown a good level of form. Going down narrowly to Optimus Prime and Testify on a... Continue Reading →

2.25pm Ascot - L'Ami Serge 2pts Win (11/2) Unowhatimeanharry is understandably the favourite here and I think a few of these younger unexposed horses are a bit underpriced, although I think Sam Spinner will give this a good go. 3 miles will be the making of L'Ami Serge in my opinion, when stepped up to...

He was pitched wide most of the way and didn't jump particularly fluently, but he should have learnt plenty from that experience. Having never been outside of the first... Continue Reading →

1.20pm Haydock - Sainte Ladylime 2pts Win (7/2) Sainte Ladylime put it all together last time when beating a good horse in Happy Diva. Her jumping has sometimes been a bit dodgy but if repeating last months performance then she'll win this race. Heavy ground won't be an issue, neither will the drop back in... Continue Reading →

12.50pm Newbury - Hell's Kitchen 2pts Win (11/4) A big gelding for Harry Fry, Hell's Kitchen has had just the 5 runs and given his size and scope, was always going to be better over fences. He pulled quite hard on his reappearance but he was entitled to be a bit fresh having been off... Continue Reading →
