Tough card and weather permitting . My Throw
R1 8 Royal Italian -w
R2 2 Adiamo -e/w
r5 2 ChampagneH -e/w and sw 1 and 2
R6 7 Aerobic - e/w

Looks much more competitive than this past Saturday; thoughts:

R1: I prefer Absente from Royal Italian

R2: Andiamo still has scope to improve, but has a bit of an iffy draw and yet to prove that she gets 1600, so beatable imo; Shakespeare in Love is my first choice running just more than two lengths behind the Oaks Trial winner; Candela looks held by Andiamo, but is improving steadily and goes in my BP

R3: Albacore the obvious one in a weak looking field; despite a wide draw should go close; Royal Pursuit from a red hot stable must be the main danger if improving after gelding; could be a train smash start to the PA if both these run out of the first 3

R4: Not an easy start to the P6 imo; Hurricane Lass and Queen of War the obvious two, but both look vulnerable; then again nothing jumps out at me as possible dangers

R5: Very competitive; Trip to Heaven has run 2nd over 1000 4 times out of 5 tries, is best weighted, so can't be ignored; Champagne Haze ran out of his skin to win the Tommy Hotspur, but I don't think they will be going quite as fast here; Naafer has never run over 1000, but he did beat Bull Valley here start to finish over 1160, so is my tentative first choice; Cathedral Country may be better than rated, so even being out at the weights on official ratings, can not be ignored either; all in all a tough race

R6: Competitive fillies and mares over 1000; nothing stands out imo but my tentative first choice would be Osculation who has run well over this trip; River Ayre ran poorly on her local debut, but may have needed that and has to be considered along with the more obvious ones like Danish Cross and Aerobatic

R7: Secret Captain gets another chance and rates the one to beat; Pilou may try to come off them without the blinkers and is an obvious danger coming from the Tarry yard; Dawn Assault and Top Shot others to consider

R8: Again not easy; Zouaves goes around the turn again and is my first choice, but not a lot between him and Wonderwall on their last runs; Cashin can upset - claims 4kg and jumps from pole position - OOPS ... apprentice not riding so no claim

R9: 16 fillies and mares in a MR62 handicap - anyone still in the P6 at this stage would be wishing they included the field here; I went with 4 runners in the PA: Virginia Moon, the Tarry coupling and Queenie

Enjoy

ONE DOLLAR MASSAGE - massive runner
HEART OF AFRICA to give ALBACORE and HEART OF AFRICA a fright
SHILOH best 4 place fixed - respect HURRICANE LASS and CRUISEBERRY who has winning blood
TRIP TO HEAVEN (jock has won 7 times on him around 40% S/r) danger CHAMPAGNE HAZE
OSCULATION KUNGFOOFIGHTING in difficult race and even an outside chance to BURGUNDY ROSE
PUGET SOUND e/w with big respect to Wonderwall and Macduff
QUEENSBERRY SQUARE is too big at 25/1 - try fixed 4 places but such an ugly race if I'm still going after race 8 i'll pray for rain as I would have liked almost Field in my PA!!!

SING AND DANCE EW
