Friday 1st November

A routine win for a horse advised at 7/2 at Stratford and a couple of nice places at Bath but clearly on reflection if you are going to have a couple (or more) pokes in 11-12-13 runner races you really need to find the winner or all the available places. So, we'll fine tune and more strictly control the clear tips advice in those sort of 11-13 runner fields and only stretch them in rces with 16 or more declared or where literally every Bookie is going to be enhanced to 4th place in fields of 14 or 15 runners. Important to stop any "staking drift" as we clearly transition to NH and AW at the very start of November.
 
Newmarket Card today offers little scope according to the Tipsters, a couple of AW Fixtures tonight as will become the Friday norm but with a couple of Handicaps at Uttoxeter that our Tipsters want to attack and a 16 runner Handicap at Down Royal that Sean is very keen to attack, we'll stick with those options today, where Wetherby also stage an NH meeting but with a dearth of runners.
