    The Church Gate scored twice in a row last season over hurdles before being switched to fences without winning. Back over the smaller obstacles, I expected a better performance tomorrow and am on at 9/1 win bet. There's a a fella who frequents this place who has a connection who may know more, but I am inclined to think this has a chance.

    He ran really well in a deep novice chase at Ffos Las on his first run over fences and is the type who will improve massively for the experience. I like him a lot and he should soon be winning.

    Trainer: Evan Williams.

    4/1 in a three horse novice chase tomorrow at Fos Las 2.00

    Word on the 606 forum from one of the owners is that this is being aimed to win a race in Limerick in a few weeks time. That's not to say it won't win today but might be worth factoring in.

    1.05 Navan, Apples Jade. Short at around 1/3 on the exchange. This is a lay bet for me. The horse is not what is used to be and a shock could be on the cards here. I've had a fairly big lay bet on Apples Jade and I'm hoping one of the other 2 in contention for the win will get the job done.

    1.25 Ffls Las, Prudhomme, again a short price horse at around 4/11 but I'm willing to back for the win at them short odds. There is nothing in the race to put it to Prudhomme and I have the horse priced up a 1/9 so even at 4/11 I think it's value.

    Few more nice ones lined up.

    Good luck to anyone betting today

    I would say the bookies are doing cartwheels. All the Santini doubles in the fire never mind the professional money. They are not machines.

    2 more bets for me today.

    2.00 Ffos Las, Newtide, around 5/4 and well backed but for me a definite lay and it's my best bet of the day. Can't see the horse winning under any circumstances.

    2.10 Navan, A Plus Tard, around 7/4 - 15/8 on the exchange and I think it's a very good price. I've backed the horse to win.

    That's me for the day.

    Good luck

    I've gone for Fakir here over Melon. I half fancy Melon for the Arkle (I know) but Mullins' horses a bit in and out so taking him on today.

    Some very good racing today, some standouts! Santini struggled badly, ideal out in front but held on.
