Kinross won 3/1.

Really impressive run from Six yesterday. Thanks to Dilton and Paul for all the hard work behind the scenes.

I'll throw in Jadoomi 15:20 Asc as a rare nap. Taken a break from betting for a few months but having the odd go here and there...

An adventurous chance taken on Go Bears Go in the Ascot 2.00 Each way.

Coltrane has been very good to me this year, but I'm deserting him in favor of Quickthorn as my nap in the 13:25 at Ascot.

I too like Kinross, but for nap. I'll go:

Bashkirova - 16.40 Ascot

I was going to go Kinross but Gaz has already picked him so I'll go a bit left field with

Nap Catt 1445 Queen's Sergeant

Coltrane is a cliff horse and would be a fitting winner today. Wonderful actor I loved him in Cracker and really a bit surprised he lived to a good age such was his size. Need some strong lads to carry that coffin!

Tim has called , Six ate up and has trotted out this morning sound .

4.20 Leopardstown – Lyrical Poetry

I’m also very keen on Willie McCreery’s filly in this: Self Belief. She has loads of potential but she’s up against some battle-hardened types here. One for next year I’d say.

For most of the week my eye has been drawn to the today's final race at Leopardstown. The market has been extremely volatile in recent days and there has been significant cash for Jessica Harrington’s Yashin. He’s already been well beaten by a couple of these, he’s drawn so wide that he might as well be starting from the hard shoulder of the M50, and he’s up against an apparent good thing of Emmet Mullins. However, he has been running with considerable promise of late. Now, the issue is that he was 16/1 on Thursday and is now trading at 5s and 6s in most places. I will hold fire and hope to get 7s or 8s on track.

Eldar eldarov nap (Ascot, 13:25)

Rohaan 2.00 Ascot is the nap,well done yesterdays winners.

It would do my head in to think about the work Dilton and Loose Buttons have done.

I hate the Ascot Card and do not consider it a festival when the ground has turned and all of a sudden Cracksman is 7Ib superior to Enable.

Greg Wood thinks there is something great about the Champion Stakes and is in love with Baaeed but I don't get that Race.

My Parents followed Nijinsky and were crushed when he lost to Lorenzaccio but I don't think this is a Freudian thing.

I just think the ground has gone to pot for flat racing.

However I have to admit I have to get out of the Cinema occasionally and it is an interesting Ascot card full of possibilities.

I have built a Coupon on Ballydoyle who have outsiders which is helpful in my favoured e.w. double mode.

I am thinking my nap has to in the 16.00. Ascot. I have done Stone Age at 50s already but have to add Mac Swiney at 100/1.

A wiser sage than I (Msay) on another Forum has thrown this out and whilst he is dealing with the grief of the Stoute loser Nostrum in the Dewhurst and somehow thinks Bay Bridge may be in the mix today he still knows his onions.

There is nothing significant about the date. Terence MacSwiney or Traoloc MacSuibhne or indeed did in fact die in October in HMS Brixton in this month but I can't find a classical Bolgerism. Bolger has not planned this date.

Like Msay I think he is overpriced.

My nap is e.w. MacSwiney.

His Grandson was once one of my Lecturers at Post-Grad Teaching

Praise for the syndicate to Joe too. Without him I'm sure we wouldn't be together. As Dylan may have said he offered Shelter after the storm.
