Monday's Selections & Updates - 24 October

Well two good days for boosting the beer & pizza fund over the weekend - I must remember which "lucky" mug I've been drinking my coffee from these past two days!   Only joking....it's staying away from the tail end (dregs?) of low-grade flat turf racing that has brought the "luck".


Godophin have three runners in the 14:40 at Redcar on Monday - two trained by Al Zarooni.  The Bin Suroor runner Future Security is 1st string (Hanagan) with Fallon on 2nd string Zaeem and Catlin on Oxbow.  Since it's a maiden, it's always worth considering an investment on those not wearing the blue cap at an each way price!  
Future Security was 1st although it went off at a second string price. Zaeem came 2nd (at a fav price) with Oxbow trundling up way behind in 8th place.


Today’s selections are:

Southwell
14:20  Hunting Gonk UP
14:50  Quite A Thing (1.86) 1st
15:20  On The Cusp UP
            Kishinda UP
15:50  Totally Trusted UP
16:20  Baileys Agincourt UP
16:50  Gracies Gift UP

I shall refer you to the line below!  ....I suppose I should be happy to have found the one winner (backed it myself at evens) but still loss of -5.14 today

I'm not so confident about these picks today and that together with it being Monday (!) means small stakes for me 



Mark Johnston was talking a lot of sense when he spoke to ATR on Sunday.  As a trainer, a qualified vet and a director of BHA, I hope his words are given some credence.
