It shouldn't do too much damage tbh - will make the top surface a bit wet but nothing more. It was very quick yesterday (much faster than advertised) so at an estimate it's good to firm all over. Really good chance today with plenty of pace high - wait and see how the Silver Cup goes too today mind

Whats your thoughts on Tombi? doesnt seem much to go on in recent races, Mac Gille Eoin is the one thats been given to me as a tip.

Difficult racing today ...

Green Manalishi (2.05) and Evens And Odds (3.10) are my two in the Ayr sprints.

Music Show should go well inbetween (2.35 Ayr) and Ragamuffin Man (3.40 Newmarket) looks overpriced considering it's form with Saga de Tercey.

Broomielaw looks a cracking each-way bet at Newbury (2.50) and Triple Aspect (3.25) should bounce back at shorter odds.

Mac Gille Eoin has a shot but he's likely going to be making his own running on the far side (drawn 12) and i'm not convinced that he's on the right side.

Tombi is a good horse - his runs this year have been in better races (bar the Hamilton Park run) including when running subsequent G1 winner Regal Parade (won this last year) to a length off levels over 7f. He's also run well at York in the City of York Stakes (plenty of winners in front of him and a moral winner in Balcarce Nov, the race was near enough a Group 3 or poor Group 2 and he was slowly away). A fast run 6f should be good for him though he might get outpaced early on which is the danger and the good to firm (on the fast side of this IMO) will be right up his street.

Too big a price at the 40/1 for sure. Had a small bet on Kevin Ryan's Advanced who's a good horse on his day too.

Miles clear far side in the Silver Cup - only consolation is that we were on the winner

Tombi bet looks a bit dead in the water now IMO but will cling to the hope that the pace nearside will help matters.

Another one in the 2.35 as well Evens And Odds looks stronger now.

Feel absolutley sick...

Followed Jimmy Styles all year and even said so on this very thread earlier on, looked again at it this morning and saw the eye-catching booking of Frankie but talked myself out of it and went for Zidane instead, worst thing is it was in a multiple bet with marcus cicero a 16/1 winner in the first race.

Also backed Lowther which finished 2nd..

Something to come back at least and my football bet is looking good too.
