Didn't see Wipe Your Eye, I've got a theory that he and Cross The Hymen are 2 JP has named as double entendres!!

Alan Berry took Wipe you Eye wide for most of it, held him up last on the first circuit, and came there to challenge but was soon under pressure and finished fourth. King Charlamane won hard held about 6lengths!

Hwjb.......... will you be following Mind Alert again today?

[Hwjb]

Have been back home for the last ten days or so and, apart from going to Cheltenham last Saturday (and also a particularly drunken ball at the course after racing) I haven't really been following the racing.


And, no, no more chances for Mind Alert!

Still, couple who leap off the page today.

Southwell:
3:40: Pikaboo 2pts e/w. Stuart Williams is a cheat of the highest order IMO, but I think today could be the day.
Save on Cerebus 2pts win.

4:40: Jojesse: 2pts e/w. Sure to do much better switched to Swinbank and sent handicapping.

Well done with Vortex mate, i thought he was a cracking bet. I backed him and that dog Yorokobi!!!

I think Stream Of Gold is a 'good thing' in the next.

If Bustin Justin handles the dirt i think he will take all the beating.

The most interesting runner is Vista Bella, last since finishing a good third in the 1000 Guineas 2years ago.

I've backed Party Boss in the next at Southwell at 7/4 but its a lay at odds on, don't think he will handle to slower surface now.
