Tomorrow’s racing looks decidedly tricky.

The 2.40 at Haydock only has 5 runners and a case could be made for all of them. Humbie probably needs further. Glencree will appreciate the drying ground and is marginally preferred to Thumbs Up.

We were on Red Merlin last time when he won at 6/1. He is out again at Hereford in the 2.00 but will be odds on this time. I think I will bank my winnings and give him a miss this time.

Sweet Irony has been knocking on the door and Alan King has probably found a winning opportunity for him in the Warwick 2.20. 11/8 looks short enough though given the presence of a dangerous looking Philip Hobbs runner.

A day to keep the powder dry I think.
