    Second at 25/1, should have won to be honest, took a couple of bumps from the winner. Would have walked away with over a grand had he won, ah well.

    On another note, as stated the trainer seems to be giving my cousin his chance. Two decent enough horses (for their races) at double figure odds he's been on now. Will let you know when his next ride is.

    Just like buses, my cousin waits over three months for his second ride and then gets two in a week.

    He's on Finlays Footsteps in the 3.50 at Market Rasen (2m 6f handicap hurdle) today. This is the one he was on when unseated at the last on Stephen's Day when six lengths clear. Has had two runs since then which were pretty disappointing although both were in muddy conditions and it's expected the good ground should suit him again. Cousin takes ten pounds off which is always nice :)

    He's a young horse with a decent pedigree which should suggest bags of speed although how useful that will be over 22 furlongs is to be seen. The yard is in decent form lately and the fact that he has travelled so far with this horse gives me some confidence. They're based on Teeside and have travelled this far south with him, think it's at least a 500 mile round trip.

    Unfortunately no big price today which is a bit of a negative but at 13/2 should still turn a small profit if he gets placed.

    Racing Post says

    SPOTLIGHT Struggled in the mud both starts since fluffing a winning opportunity when blundering and unseating this rider at the last (6l clear at time) over 2m4f on good ground at Sedgefield on Boxing Day; return to better ground may help and could see him runningwell

    Absolute stinker. Had to be ridden after the first two flights, think he was 12th of 14 in the end. Don't think I could back him again, looks like a monkey of the highest order.

    Good stuff. Felt a bit bad handing out a duff tip. I'm getting the feeling that he'll probably piss up at 20/1 next week now. Kind of get the impression that the trainer's a bit of a shrewdie/gangster - delete depending on your own feelings.

    This feckin horse.. That trainer is from Spancilhill. Wouldn't back any of his horses. Gonebeyond recall is "the best horse he's ever had in training,' - wasn't it bought at the Land Rover Millions and won the corresponding race last year? Trainer is quite the weasel. If i'd seen this post I would have advised you against it. Overhyped horses, not a great trainer.
