Friday 24th January

After a couple of promising runs at Huntingdon from Masked Dance and Shelley Gardens the results at Gowran Park were bitterly disappointing. Our Irish Tipsters who have been excellent and consistently good over the past few seasons haven't become bad Tipsters overnight, but since December their form has largely been very poor and out of character. We're not into knee-jerk reactions and I'm still very confident that as always they will have an excellent March and April, but we will have an extensive debrief and if that means we row back on the Irish side for a week or two, that's what we'll do.
 
The Card at Sandown doesn't offer a great deal today, neither does the AW but a couple of races at Doncaster deserve attention.
