ALAN takes us through the card for Saturday's meeting at Ayr with a selection for all seven races.
2.10 – Ayr
WELSH RAREBIT has started at 100-1 and 20-1 on two recent visits to Ayr but has twice outrun those loud odds. Lucy Egerton’s gelding showed promise when third to hotpot Galvin in early February and did even better 19 days later when chasing home Western Honour over today’s trip.
2.45 – Ayr
EMMA BEAG won with plenty in hand over course and distance in January and Julia Brooke’s improving mare can defy a 9lb rise at Ayr. This isn’t a strong contest and Another Mattie will appreciate the drop in class after running fourth to Kalaharry at Newcastle.
3.20 – Ayr
TONTO’S SPIRIT missed his intended engagement at Kelso last week due to the bereavement of trainer Ken Slack and the seven-year-old would be a poignant winner of the 2m handicap chase. A repeat of his very good second to Dan Skelton’s Destrier puts him firmly in the mix.
3.55 – Ayr
DERRIANA SPIRIT is chasing a hat-trick for Nicky Richards and she will be hard to beat in the mares’ handicap hurdle if cherry-ripe following a 53-day break. Brian Hughes is a notable booking.
4.30 – Ayr
SILVA ECLIPSE has gone down narrowly on no fewer than three occasions at Haydock and the grey’s turn could be at hand in slightly easier company. Sue Smith’s gelding has run well on deep ground in the past.
5.05 – Ayr
GLITTERING LOVE has won five of his last six starts and should be another for the Richards/Hughes axis, especially with his liking for a soft surface. Top weight Strong Resemblance looks the one to beat.
5.35 – Ayr
EBONY JEWEL is a worthy favourite in the concluding bumper. He was trained in Ireland by Ron O’Leary but made his debut at Haydock in early December when giving Kim Bailey’s Mr Grey Sky a good fight. The winner has gone in again since and Ebony Jewel subsequently joined Nick Alexander for 70,000 guineas.
In December 2020 we sadly 
£1 EW Lucky 15

Wolv 3.50 Nubough
Sand 3.35 mustmeetalady
Sand 2.25 Extra Mag
Emma Beag 9/4 nap/nb
a good friend of mine had a share in the dam of emma beag (,emma jane) and he said he was told emma beag is going to be very hard to beat today gl
sorry anyone who followed
It will be hard to beat plug…its a non runner😂😂
not a NR for me.
just a reminder, as he was banging on about it again yesterday, AARON LAD in the Pertermps, Thursday race 2. Around 14s at present, one to mull over as big race expected. I looked at a few market rivals and wasn’t wary of any of the leaders.
Garfo
its not a nr 2/1 now
Meydan
12:35 The song of John 25/1 1pt win
14:20 old Persian 1/1 2pt win
15:20 Wootton 11/4 3pt win
Best of luck all!
March -20 pts
have WOOTTON as leg two of my treble, 6/4f from 11/4, 5 outta 6 favs win already, what can go wrong? turning into a potential day saver this early.
LOL as expected, the horse goes into 11/10 and loses, typical bookie ploy, sickening.
630k – SINGING SHERIFF 4/1
With 3 horses floating around 4/1, this trappy race is probably not the best betting opportunity. Also, the selection has seemingly drifted from 5/2 this morning, but I am still going to put this horse up. Surrey Blaze is 6lbs higher than his last win in July. Hackbridge is up 2lbs for his head defeat to Rakematiz recently, he could be bang there. I am sticking with SS, running off 66, he was 3l behind a 75 horse when beating subsequent 66 & 70 winning horses, he was 2.5l behind Ilhabela Fact who won its next two off 74 and 76. Slight reservations but going with him today. Meanwhile, Bringthehousedown’s price keeps plummeting.
250H – KING’S MONARCH 9/4 – 21L winner LTO, up 9lbs but stable apprentice takes off 3, on that bases alone, we stick with.
305GP – FROM EDEN 10/11 landed a gamble on his first start for Gordon Elliot last week, willing to stick with as an acca booster
Have to mention THE BAY BIRCH 335sd, he went in for me at 10s a couple of weeks ago, Sandown looked heavy yesterday and although he won on good LTO, he has form on heavy. He is 4lbs higher for a 4l win last time, the 3rd who yesterday (SONG SAA), at 9/1 he owes me nothing and deserve to be backed each way.
a guy in shop just told me 830K MERCHANT OF VENICE, which his daughter is involved with. He is no price at 11/8 but the 6/1 bar is confidence boosting, so hopefully a good thing.
was tentative towards EDEN which came 2nd, but two other picks come in for a productive day, nice to see i was right with the 630 race, with the 3 market rivals coming home in a blanket finish.
Wondered where everyone was Everyone has come on this AYR thread instead of the main racing thread.
Wow. I had Third Win at 1.50pm Sandown e/w. Lost in a photo that took 5 minutes for them to call but just heard the judge called it wrong as he was looking at the wrong camera angle. They have already paid out on the other horse so what happens now? This is going to make headline news at a bad time already for racing.
Will probably go down as first past the post and pay out on both
I have an update they have paid me out as the winner but hearing that other bookmakers may not be so fair. Anyone effected by this?
Clan legend 3-20 Ayr 6-1 win, or 10-11 top 3 finish for accumulators.
in the 600 race at kempton, levey and hannon in these silks are one of the top combinations.
however, the horse is drifting slightly and since it has never run before, i am looking towards LUCKY LOU 8/1.
he beat SOLAR HEIGHTS, admittedly on his race course debut, but that horse has gone on to win, beating a horse rated 80, he also beat willy sewell by 6 lengths, a horse who won today.
good enough for me. BOL 8/1 and better available.
