Hello again one and all,
The summer sun (and heat) continue into Tuesday, and we have action from four meetings today. Beverley gets the ball balling at 1:45pm, swiftly followed by Brighton at 2:00pm. Then as Brighton, and Beverly conclude at 5:00pm, and 5:20pm respectively, Newton Abbot picks up the baton from 5:15, with Newbury joining in the fun with their first race at 5:30pm, and finishing the days action with the 9:00pm.
Recap - Monday, 26th June, 2023
Alpina Express gave us back to back winners, and a third in four attempts yesterday. Our diminutive little filly (especially compared to the early leader Lexington Hero) raced keenly on the inside initally around the first turn (slightly left-handed). Stayed prominent around the looping right-handed turn for home, taking charge around the 3 furlong mark, pressing further to slip clear from 2 furlongs out, running on strongly enough to be able to be eased right down over the line and finishing a comfortable 5 lengths clear, making it a hat-trick of wins this month.

A winner in both of her last two outings, with today's jockey in the plate for the most recent of those 17 days ago, at Bangor over 3 Miles. Up 1 Furlong in trip for this one, and taking on a 4lb rise in her handicap rating. Only a small field (4 runners) to contend with.
Cheeky Extra Bet
No joy with our test yesterday once again with The Galalhad Kid coming home in second place - 3 lengths off the pace.
Today, Renegade Racing is once again choosing two from the same race to go with, which seems to me, as i mentioned the other day, a bit illogical, particularly when his confidence in either of the runners only varies by a small margin. I have, this time, gone all in on the selections as either one winning will cover the loss on the other bet (fingers crossed).
He also put forward another selection as a more standard betting option, which I have also taken on for the test.
And finally...
That about wraps it up for another day,
Hope you all have a great day and rest of the weekend, and hope you find some success in your day, whether that be in the sports world or otherwise. And as usual if you follow the picks or go against them let me know, you never know there may be a reward coming your way with some SPORTS tokens.
Until tomorrow
Steve
