Thursday 15th November

There is moderate NH today at Ludlow and Taunton (Good to Firm) a meeting in Ireland and some AW fodder. Very much "the lull before the storm" with 3 days at Cheltenham and for many "THE OPEN MEETING" is the real start of the serious stuff and precursor to 5-6 great weeks of NH Racing. We will focus on that of course over the next few days in some depth and detail.

With little NH scope today (we had intended 5 runners yesterday but 2 were non runners and we left the winner a day run at 5, as only one placed) we always considered it a quiet day, so just a few "mentions" and whilst our new AW expert will join after Christmas, I don't fancy anything on AW today and neither does Michael.

We have 3 selections covering the 2.55 and 4.00 at Ludlow today
