Ironically given the heat wave at the moment Cool Customer was a winner for our list to follow at Windsor tonight at 7/1. This was his 3rd win of the season.
The only runner from the list Tuesday is Sir Mark Prescott’s Alambic who goes for a hat trick in the 8.50 at Yarmouth. This imposing filly has won her last two starts in impressive style and looks likely to add to her tally. The way she has stayed on in her races this season indicates that she will not be inconvenienced by the extra 2 furlongs here. It is worth watching her win at Musselburgh on July 10 if you have the Racing Post video link.
Talking of the Racing Post I liked their headline, “Fallon ice cold on Alex,” referring to Alexandrova’s win in the Irish Oaks. It brings back memories of the film and Sylvia Sims in those khaki shorts! Anyway enough of that, I’m feeling warm enough as it is!
We all get a mountain of junk mail these days and I am certainly no exception. A lot of it is racing related and just recently I have had a couple of interesting brochures.
Just before the World Cup I received a brochure form “The All England Racing Club” complete with the red cross of St George on the front. They advertise “a winning tradition” nice word that tradition, the brochure promises that if I follow their straightforward advice I will be a millionaire by 2010.
One punter is quoted as saying, “I have joined many different racing services in the past, some have shown a small profit but most have been useless. Since I joined the All England Club I have consistently won. I don’t know how you do it but keep it coming.” They have an office in London.
I then got some stuff from Thomas Whitaker. This chap has “inside contacts” and won £380,000 last year alone. Mr Whitaker has an office in London. I tend to get one of these invites a month, they usually claim to be a limited offer to the first 500 applicants and they tend to have reduced subscription fees.
I always assume these things are bogus but if anyone has any info bout these two or offers like them I would appreciate your comments.
See you tomorrow.
