    I had a cracking day at Epsom last year 3 good price winners, i doubt a repeat today! But there is one good bet

    210 Epsom I took Bahamian last year at a big price and it won well. Must have a chance but i dont like where its drawn. Now the RP seem to be at loggerheads with me over draw. I immediately look for low at sprints at Epsom but their comment about my selection suggests the opposite! Oh well! Now i wouldnt trust Midgely with my mums pension but i think Merry Banter must have a chance from his draw. Its a front runner but the RP see his draw as a major negative thus its 25/1 which should be 7/1 in my tissue. Small ew at 25/1

    245 Cap Francais. ive waited all winter to see this run again. Ed Walker thinks this could be anything and has thrown it in the deep end. i took 13/2 last night which i thought was short enough but i see its 9/2 now. i think it will drift as O Briens and Gosdens will be supported but ive had a good win bet. Win lose or draw, this WILL win races this year.

    320 Now Im shocked to see Soto Sizzler as 3/1 fav. I spotted this was a job at Goodwood last year and had bets at 40/1 and 33/1 and it won easy at 20/1.Knight always has a plot job for Goodwood and that was clearly it. I didnt back it again and i must take it on today with something. now Medailia De Oro sticks out as a "quiet one" and im sure it will win a decent race this year. small bet ew at 25/1 but notebook material whatever happens

    355 Sentimental bet only but i cant have What About Carlo at 50/1...its not that bad! Runs really well over C and d. Eve admitted she made a mistake putting it over hurdles as it hated them and its just not the same horse. Shes hoping Epsom make awaken the talent so small ew at 50/1 for old times sake. Its not a fancy but this chap owes me nowt and i hope they retire him if it runs another dud.

    So a few muck about ew bets and one decent win bet

    25s into 9s and ran a cracker. At the furlong pole i thought hed won it...but still good ew profit. i see Cap Francais has been really well punted since last night...hope it can match the confidence in running!

    Fast closing 2nd...not sure about the ride he gave 9having to switch around the winner) but the fact it was clsoing fast suggests it will get 1.5 miles. a winner waiting to happen....the 3rd was 6lengths clear of the 4th so suggests it was a good performance
