1.6 points profit yesterday (=£16 to £10 stakes). Higher at morning prices but I've gone off SP for these purposes. Tomorrow's guesses: Thursday 13:30 Real Steel/Voix Du Reve Not much between Defi Du Seuil and Lostintranslation here and at the prices, I’d sooner take a chance on Willie Mullins’ two here, both of which have fair form in the context of this race. 14:10 Sire Du Berlais Well-rated and looks to have been primed for this. 14:50 Footpad Outstanding novice chaser last season and yet to hit top form this, although ran well for a long way at Leopardstown last time out. Could be back to best here. 15:30 I may be proved wrong, but I can’t quite take Paisley Park’s improved form at face value in this, and yet it’s hard to know what second favourite Faugheen is still capable of. I’ll sit this one out. 16:10 Janika Has little in hand of Siruh Du Lac at the weights but I expect Nicky Henderson to have brought him to a peak here and that he will get revenge for his narrow New Year’s Day defeat to Siruh Du Lac. 16:50 Epatante Appears to be very well regarded and with the most scope of any of these. Hopefully he will be returned at a bigger price for any with BOG concessions. 17:30 Any Second Now/Measureofmydreams The two best amateur riders, Derek O’Connor and Jamie Codd ride these two and both have the form to go well in addition to every assistance from the saddle. £10 level stakes; stakes split where more than one selection.

Had a couple of winners today. City island at 8/1 £20 stake. Envoi Allen at 4/1 £5 stake. Only got £20 on voix du Reve so far for tomorrow but will be placing more bets throughout the day. Hopefully another return similar to today.

It's been weird so far this week. We haven't had a drop of rain all winter and then it's banged it down so the ground has turned. All the seasons form on good ground seems to be worthless. Anyway, here's me today.... 1.30 - Voix Du Reve 2.10 - Cuneo/Champers On Ice 2.50 - Monalee 3.30 - Paisley Park 4.10 - Kings Odyssey 4.50 - Posh Trish 5.30 - Captain Chaos/Touch Kick
Sire Du Berlais 'll probably romp home because it's favourite and it's got no form and I'm thinking why is it favourite and haven't backed it.
