Diary: May 24 & 25 2010

Last night’s preview yielded 3 wins and a third from 4 selections so not a bad haul. Things didn’t go quite as well on Saturday although Hamish McGonagall and Balducci were among the winning tips.

There are 4 meetings tomorrow up and down the country. Starting at Thirsk in the 5.25 recent course and distance winner Royal Swain is one to consider. He is just the sort of horse and his trainer Alan Swinbank does so well with. Another that I like is Act of Kalanisi again from a yard that does well with stayers. At odds of around 4/1 Act of Kalanisi just gets my vote.

Udabaa won a maiden over a mile at Kempton but is bred to get further and could well make a winning handicap debut for Marcus Tregoning in the 10 furlong handicap at Leicester (3.30). My other selections at Leicester are Seta (4.00) and Magnetic Force (5.30).

The consistent Tax Free is my only selection at Windsor where he runs in the 7.40. Dandarell has shown bits of promise in his 3 runs in maidens and can make a winning start in handicap company in the 4.15 at Carlisle.

My only selection on Tuesday is Redden who is turned out again in the 4.00 at Lingfield just 3 days after finishing runner up at Haydock and the stable are in good form.
