Saturday 11th January
With the marquee Meetings at Warwick and Kempton both abandoned, the hastily scheduled Meeting at Ffos Llas thankfully goes ahead. You do have to question why, with some compelling evidence, the BHA didn't move the top 3-4 races to Ffos Llas, but I suppose the gin swillers would not have the faintest idea how to get there and will reschedule them somewhere around the M25 in due course. Hopefully Warwick get to keep their races though and have a bumper combined Card on their second January Meeting later in the month.
Fairyhouse also passed an Inspection but it's not a great Card there although we do have a TRACKER that is worth a small e/w investment. There is AW at Wolverhampton and Newcaste, Chelmsford have a Card too but have to inspect, whether that's because of the weather or due to structural damage after a recent visit by the windbag that is Farage I'm not sure (best leave it there!).
We have 3 races with selections at Ffos Llas, mindful that all races on the Card are relatively "late entries" so we've tried to weed out those who may be coming for a maintain fitness spin or those who may not be ideally suited to conditions but need the run to gain fitness.
