Tales Of The Time Machine

Well, not quite yet but there will be - this is the content of my Turftrax Notebook, where you can be notified when horses run, to be honest though I can see me ditching the service before long as you can only have 50, although it might pay to keep it updated to an Elite, yeh! That's what I'll do.

Some of these need turfing out as are probably over the top for the season, like Rafta but others have been winning lately.

Archie Boy (IRE)
P. J. Flynn

Former jockey for our local trainer P J Hobbs takes out a license as a trainer in Ireland - already made one UK raid at Newton Abbot (McCoy on board), entered up in the big h'cap hurdle @ Market Rasen. Could provide a link to Irish form?

Belle des Airs (IRE)
R. M. Beckett

Must be on a winning rating in trying to give Rafta a stone & a half. Was not inconvenienced by the soft ground & is very much one to look out for back here at Leic at either 6 or 7f after a couple of good runs at the course. Improving profile too!

Bomber Brown (IRE)
P. W. Chapple-Hyam

The 75 should prove a winning mark!

Capercaillie (USA)

Clever Molly (IRE)
E. J. Alston

& poorly drawn, ran 4th @ Thirsk! Between 2 future winners @ Hamilton & unfortunate next time. Shld be spot on for a 5f nursery! This was 6f after Hamilton: Chased leader, badly hampered on inside and lost place over 3f out, headway and not clear run approaching final furlong, soon weakened (op 9-2 tchd 5-1)

Ela Gorrie Mou
T. T. Clement

30-Jun-09


Foolin Myself
M. L. W. Bell

Tho he's been upped 5lb for this 2nd @ Ascot - I reckon over a shorter trip, maybe even 6f & most probably 'frsh, 88 cld be a winning mark.
04-Aug-09


Gallagher
B. J. Meehan

NMQ @ Ascot but prob bttr back at 6f? Form just got a little boost when Plum Pudding took Bunbury under tw!
10-Jul-09


Glass Harmonium (IRE)
M. Stoute

Better than Listed Class - cheapest race of Day 3 Ascot but fastest bar Yeats, another Stouty 10f!
01-Jul-09


Golden Desert (IRE)
T. G. Mills

Reverts to sprinting & wins by 3l's in the fastest race on a card with 3 Pattern class events - is not finished yet over 6f ! Was my fancy for the 7f h'cap @ Ascot but fin 6th/29 - was in front a furlong out & may be interested over 6f

Little Miss Diva (IRE)
Mrs J Harrington

Is +12 on previous best & almost ran up to that after 200 day lay-off at Leopardstown where she made up 6 places in the final f to be 3rd of 21 @ 40/s. I doubt she'll a maiden much longer!
19-Jul-09


Long Lashes (USA)
Saeed bin Suroor

Now with Godolphin! Wins a Listed race fto 25/1, bt 3 prev winners & thwarts a Mordin bet. Clocked an 83 on 'st, trnr says will apreciate bttr grnd too & Mordin talking Gr1. This would be my 1,000G's filly so far...

17-Aug-09

Peking Prince

Looks like she got in lightly off've 57! She bt a 70 @ Newb & wasn't btn far by the 83. Clocked a 68 & the average OR of all sires progeny is 82, let's see how she fares, entered up for Friday @ Hamilton.
12-Jul-09


Rafta (IRE)
T. T. Clement

Gutted I missed this - was the last horse to beat Itsher who went on to win next three. Might come out under a penalty after winning by 10l's, start panicing when we get to 70!
18-Jul-09


Resurge (IRE)
W. S. Kittow

Step up to 10f seems to have worked, easily the fastest race of the day but god knows what the h'capper will do after easily accounting for an easy field by 7l's.
30-Jun-09


Serious Attitude (IRE)
R. Guest

Clocked a 103 during 3/3 inc Gr1 as 2yo. 8/1 for 1,000G's & boosted the form somewhat in Gr3 6f @ York - time suggests, what with allowances, cld well have been placed in July Cup? Another flying filly.

'Best 2yo so far,' says J Francome on C4. Big type

Sharpened Edge

I didn't think she could win at Sandown being so inexperienced but she was well fancied (made fav) & well drawn & ran with great credit to be third.

5025 Needs to be fresh & going for an International H'cap @ Ascot, end of Sept. Newbury run looks a bit better since the 2nd, Golden Desert troted up by >3l's next x!
31-Aug-09


Swiss Art (IRE)
R Carr

Remember this one for 8f @ Southwell, has steadily improved through the ranks to carrying 9 11 against elders in a handicap but is 4/4 over 8f course. Quality example of what to look for at the track!
