Alan Thomson has a brace of juicy bets at Wolverhampton on Friday.
HERMOCRATES (5,45) deserves a change of luck and is fancied to break a frustrating sequence of close calls by landing the 2m handicap at Wolverhampton.
John Mackie’s gelding has finished runner-up on his last five starts but seems genuine enough. Hermocrates produced possibly his best run to date over 1m 6f here in early January when a close second to My Girl Maggie. The winner is a solid yardstick and my selection has since chased home Manjaam over two miles at Newcastle.
Keith Dalgleish has a fancied runner in Howzer Black at Lingfield and stable companion CHOOKIE DUNEDIN (4.45) is despatched to the Midlands with a big chance in the 7f handicap. The gelding is usually campaigned over six furlongs but ran well over this trip 22 days ago when staying on into third behind Baby Steps and Tintoretto.
It's less than 50 days until the greatest show on turf; The Cheltenham Festival. Voice of Value has taken a look at the four Champion Races across two posts and they're well worth a read if you fancy an ante-post punt.

All singles let’s see how this lot goes
I’m sure you’ve missed a race out there dazza ?
Ha ha if they all come in then I’m retiring! It’s not text book I know just get a feeling people’s names will be a recurring theme but will probably end up with egg on my face . But if I were to nap one of them it would be jack sharp at not a bad price 3/1 . I’ll let you boys pick out all the other winners good luck as always what ever you end up picking ?
Dundalk 5-30 Red Contender 9/2
The big bite 2-05 Doncaster 85/40
A horse called kildimo runs in the 1-32 Doncaster, I thought the name rang a bell so I googled it and a horse with the exact same name came 2nd in the 1988 king George at kempton behind the legendary desert orchid.

It’s quite rare to see same named horses isn’t it ?
All mine are called sand donkeys ?
True Romance is a dual purpose horse formerly trained by Julia Brooke and tipped on this platform before.
There is also a very good horse in France called True Romance which has won stakes races including on Arc day !!!
Very unlikely that the French horse would come over to Catterick, but what would happen if they were both entered in the same race ? Which owner would have to change their horse’s name ?
Ibleos the daddy for me I was waiting to see what he would open up at .
Backed True Romance a few times,win and it being my favourite film but it’s not that horse from France I’m sure it was UK but interesting.
After yesterday I’m on a mission (after getting my $s back) too find some winners. US was better with Doubke and Integratesvat 3/1 winning.
If only Golden Whiskey would of obliged!

Lol Elvis!
Major Pussey lately has been one and was there not a total innocent racial slur name recently that a youngster named that had to be changed?
It was on TalkSport .
To tired …as above Ibleo for a single right of the bat! ? 6/5 looks generous(to me) but hey,go with a Trixie with Edgar Wallace and Talking About You both at Doncaster.
GL all and well done the winners an back to bed
#Babysitting??
My all time fav is this one
No matter how many times I listen to it I piss myself.

HaHa…and a winner! ?
I thought the commentator was nuts but there was only one way to pronounce it I suppose although he was enjoying it.
Remember one called Mary hinge commentator stumbled a few times
And when Mrs Sly had a jockey whos surname was Bas tard .Commentator would say the Sly Bast ard combinatuon wins again.
Did Sir Henry not have horse named Mary Hinge . ?
