Galway Festival Trainer Pointers
The Irish do like their summer racing festivals and the Galway Festival is clearly the biggest of the lot. There are 7 days of racing both on the flat and over jumps. Some intrepid punters go for the whole seven days which is some achievement given the amount of Guinness that will be drunk both during the races and after…

Saturday Preview
After last weekâs debacle on the tipping front which I can only apologise for I can only hope that today we see a turn in fortunes and that the coffers are replenished somewhat. That said although there are 2 televised races that really interest me the Gigaset International at Ascot and the Sky Bet Dash at York these are real…

Weekly Eyecatchers

A rare day off the racing for me yesterday as I went to see one of the best rock bands ever The Who in Hyde Park London. This is not the first time that I have seen them but again they were totally awesome and blew me away, they certainly know how to entertain and had the audience rocking with…

Royal Ascot – Day Four Preview
I didnât have a bet on the opener but was a little bit disappointed with King Of Rooks who came to win the race but wasnât quite good enough and was beaten by a couple of better horses on the day. The Tercentenary saw my top two rated Time Test and Peacock come home first and second in that order,…
