    Not much racing, but a few to watch out for.

    Bally Sands is out again after its jockey made a complete balls out of the finish, throwing away almost certain victory after veering out wide and nearly not completing the course. I imagine they're sending this one out quickly with the expectation that its handicap mark will be reassessed, despite it not winning last time out.

    Mark Prescott has two out at Wolverhampton. One has showed nothing (Vejovis) and the other looks very dangerous (Coursing). Prescott has been red hot on the all weather as of late, so both of these are worth a look.

    Finally, another of interest must surely be Ability N Delivery, a veteran on the AW at Dundalk which is over at Wolverhampton. Horse has some nice form, but doesn't seem to be able to finish its dinner over Dundalk, so you can see why they might want to try this one over another track. Booking of Adam Kirby is certainly eye catching.

    both prescott horses drifting like a barge, but still fancy Vejovis stepped up from 6f to 9f and first time blinkers.

    Final Countdown 5.55 was short of room last time over C&D
    At 9-1 I like it's ew value.

    raging bear e/w @ 50/1 for me, went close off higher marks a few times at Southwell last winter and could be a big price if taking to the tapeta.

    It's a good read.

    Got it on your recommendation, seems to serve you well. Have dropped back into backing nearly every race, poor poor habit

    Some jockey and very very brave horse, one for the tracker.

    Was hoping for a drift, 7/2 yesterday must have been well backed since 5
