Charlie Cool.... tidy

Friday was ok....

Scotch Corner
was punted into 6/1 and finished 2nd by a short head, looked beat with 1/2 furlong to go and got back up well. Would have won with another 20yds.

Falcon's Tribute never looked like winning but someone pressed the wrong button on Betfair and hoovered up all my lays so a small profit was gleaned.

Gosforth Park - NR

Dirar wonnd beat Lord Baskerville into 2nd place, so a small profit made in this.

Good Gorsoon was 4th, typically.

Today looks a good day. I've whittled it down to 2 bets. There is a lot of value around, but I don't want to waffle on for hours.

Ascot 4.35 Munsef (12/1, betfred) is a consistant type and its not the greatest price going for a 15 runner handicap. 2008 was pretty disappointing but has bounced back well this year with a good 2nd at Haydock LTO. Definitely don't take less than the 12/1.

Pontefract 3.50 Another good race where 'anything' can win. Perks (7/2) and Orizaba (2/1f)
look strong for this, but Bet365 have offered Charlie Cool @ 25/1. Unbelievable price. Should come on for his run in June (1st race for 20 months) and hopefully back to his 2007 form, where he won a Class 2 and was placed twice in Class 1s.

Racing Post Update: Corner shop ran out today, do I, don't I.... arggggh.... 25p a day..... hmmmmmm.
