Todays Nap Friday 17th August

Granston 3:05 Doncaster hasn’t been first past the post since August last year!! but has been third in his last four races. In today’s company a win looks a distinct possibility.

Result: If he hadn’t got himself baulked in he had every chance of winning. 5/19

Todays Nap Tuesday 14th August

Five Wishes Musselburgh 8:30 came second here in June, in fact she has finished second in her last three races. P Fessey is in the saddle and has ridden her several times before on northern courses. One wish will do….. Win, well I had to say it !!

Result: This one was a real cracker finishing 12/12. She showed no interest in racing at all.

Todays Nap Monday 13th August

Hello I’m back! after a weeks sailing holiday in and around Milford Haven in West Wales, highly recommended. Aggravation Windsor 6:45 is today’s nap, having won here in June there is no reason why she shouldn’t repeat that performance tonight. Jockey M Halford has had the last four rides and has won twice.

Result: She was pretty poor, getting her self baulked in and not really in a racing mood.

Todays Nap Saturday 4th August

King Charles, Newmarket, 2:25.
Spoilt for choice today with racing in Galway (Ireland) and Goodwood. Todays best bet is in the first race at Newmarket, with King Charles hoping to repeat his win here last week. The extended trip should suit.

Result: Non Runner (Well at least it did n’t loose)

Todays Nap Wednesday 1st August

Excellent Art Goodwood 3:30 has all the credentials for a win here today. Under the guidance of Jamie Spencer the Aidan O’Brien trained horse should follow up his Ascot win in June this year.
Decado same race looks worth a each way punt.

Result: Beaten by a short head into second
