No joy with the speculative mentions yesterday but WHINGING WILLIE ran on noticeably well and late, nearest at the finish, just missing a place and that's it's best run in a fair while, and with that Yard, quite likely to be being primed for something soon you feel, especially now they know he gets 14 furlongs held up.

David who usually does ELITE TIPS is away for the weekend in Poland, so Ian will take over for 1 week only, and the ELITE TIPS for tomorrow at ASCOT and NEWMARKET will be issued later tonight to all Members via e-mail and also in the Members Paddock.

David is in Torun for the final Round of the Speedway GP and for anyone wanting those selections for the final Round and final time in 2018, go to the SP2A website (no need to log in) click on Tipping Services > Speedway GP and on the Main page go down to the 3 blogs and the specific one for tomorrow is the 2nd entry posted at 12:27pm yesterday. There is also a reminder of the initial overall picks where I am told we look like we could have all 3 Podium places, winner; silver and bronze and also an outline of 2019 plans. Ian has asked me to tell all those who mailed to say they had used/won on Speedway tips in 2018, over 150 of you in total; a big THANK YOU; and he will be in touch early next week, with a special thank you and some nice surprises for you.
