Saturday 4th October 2014

It was nice to get back in the groove on Thursday evening - Speedy Writer won very well in the end and can probably follow up upped in grade.

Just one for today. Just a note that we won't be betting tomorrow - I had fancied Ivanhowe for the Arc but not now that he is drawn in stall 19.

7.30 Wolverhampton The Great Gabrial 2pts each-way AND 2pts win @ 16/1 (Skybet, Bet Victor, Paddy Power, Betfair Sportsbook, guaranteed) - E/W 3rd

Looks overpriced for a horse who seems to be coming into form and ran really well here two runs back where he was forced wide and made his move too early. Devilment and I'm Back look big dangers but at the prices the selection looks standout value. He is drawn in stall 9 here and I think the race will be run at a decent pace which should suit. We'll play each-way and win.

Profit & loss: day: +4.00 / month: +24.50 / year: +219.05
