Success again for us yesterday as both our selections ended up in second place at odds of 10/1 and 20/1 respectively.The first one ,Resplendent Alpha was almost murdered in his victory quest by the eventual winner Flying Applause who somehow managed to keep the prize in the Stewards Room.The other one almost nailed it at 20/1 under a murderous ride from his Pilot who must have felt that someone had moved the winning post a few meters further back.All in all it would have turned out to be a very profitable day for those of you who backed those two
horses each way and in doubles.Had those two horses been able to win at those odds,the profits would have been very attractive.Anyway I cannot dwell on yesterday too much so let's turn our attention to today's action.However, before we get there let me just express my condolences to the relatives of Trainer
Josh Gifford on his passing yesterday.He was indeed a great Trainer and will surely be missed by all.Three all weather tracks carded for today but I'm not going to touch that Kempton meeting..At
Southwell the racing is not so hot either so I 'll stick to
Wolverhampton for tipping purposes.I must point out the fact that jockey T.Eaves has accepted one ride at Southwell in the 1.20 race [JUST FIVE] after which he heads over to Wolverhampton for five [rides]more.Perhaps close attention should be paid to that one ride at Southwell by T.Eaves.Close attention should also be paid to another one of his mounts at Wolver.and here I fancy in the 5.40 race,No 1, INDIAN ARROW.His last race was over 1ml/1 fur on this course.He disputed the lead for a long way in that race before fading out of it.His very shrewd Trainer J.J.Quinn has now dropped him down to 6 furs.He is worth noting and I feel he is going to try hard to win this race.I have one more that I fancy and that is No 1, SAM LORD in the 6.40 race [Wol] His last run was over 2 mls at this venue in class 4 company.He runs in a class 5 race today and as the top weight ,I am of the view that he is the best horse in the race and a sound each way proposition.So those are my thoughts on today's action and for those of you brave enough to back my tips I say best of luck to you all.
