I'm not sure what happened with Flyawaydream up at Ayr, it was too bad to be true. Two of the main threats in the market were NRs, thus making my selection an odds-on shot. He ran like a 20/1 shot, off the bridle a few furlongs into the race and when turning for home he was in big trouble. Luke Morris probably gave him too much to do, but it didn't make a difference as he was going nowhere fast.
They decided to stay stands side, well most of them did, at Windsor for the big sprint and it looked to be the wrong place to be. I said in the preview that I thought they would go to the far side as that's the place to go when soft ground is at Windsor, and it proved to be the best place. Antiphon stuck to the near rail and ran a scorcher to grab a place at 20/1 advised. Painful that didn't make a profit on the day with the Mark Prescott stinker costing it big time.
Ripon 7:40 – Fantizzy 11/1 (0.5pt EW William Hill)
Steph Hollinshead won't be a familiar name to most racing fans, but she is a good operator with the small amount she has and when she sends her runners to Ripon, they are worth a second look. She sends two to Ripon on Tuesday night and I think Fantizzy is the one to have a bet on.
Fantizzy is making her stable debut for Steph after being transferred from Tom Dascombe's yard and I think she can make a winning debut for the new stable. The ground will likely remain as soft, which won't be great for many of her opposition in the race today, but we already know that she handles soft ground based on her 2nd placed effort at Nottingham on seasonal reappearance this year. She has pretty much run to form since that race, recording RPRs of 75 and 76, but she was put in the deep end into a Listed race the time after Nottingham which suggests they do think she has a decent amount of ability to eventually get black-type. On paper, t her most recent run at Haydock looks bang average but the front two have improved no end since, with the winner improving 19lbs and the runner-up by 20lbs, she wasn't given a hard time when she secured fourth spot that day, but she was starting to run on again so the extra half furlong on the testing ground looks sure to suit.
Steph is 4/10 when sending her horses to Ripon in the last 10 years, recording a profit of +£21.85 to £1 level stakes.

B’ Lucky ?
Great research!
I’ve missed the boat on this one
Not much of a day in UK etc but best of luck with your bets folk.
??
Couple short ones but be surprised if they don’t get shorter soon?
Finger Lakes -R1…Miss Stones. EVS *****
Bet365
Try not bore the eyes off you with stats but huge class drop after a clunker on his last run (85k Allowance) but still good enough to be claimed for a good new trainer in Paul Barrow. Finished 3rd at Belmont to very useful ‘Fancy Joke’ and ahead of ‘Red Moon’ who both went on to show up well in 150k Stakes races
R3…No Chalk. EVS **** Bet365
Class dropper too from 26K to 24,700K who won at this level and above before close 5th to some decent types in the 26k race but no real excuse bar just outclassed that day. Has had 3 extra weeks off compared to his usual running order the last few months and in Vs much more exposed types,hopefully gets back to winning ways.
Double pays just over 3/1 for value play as they say. The FAV in first at Ffos Las looks good as the least exposed but 5/6 now and not my type of racing
??.
Deauville…1.58 Alnashfara 5/1 **
DEFINITELY not my type of racing bar a watch and was only drawn to this as it’s a Group 1 but of course noticed it’s an Arabian bread race although best jockeys are still hopping on board.
Alshanfara won a G2 on 2nd start after good debut,jockey supposedly does well in Arabian races and why he’s booked?
GL all ?
??
Add this for what would be a decent Trixie if short priced singles aren’t for you. Nice 7/1 treble is an option.
Horseshoe Indianapolis -R7…Habuiah 11/10 Coral. *****
Couldn’t be having it on Turf along with a Rule 4 or at odds on but switches to dirt and Coral still go 11/10?
Close 3nd in a 100k Stakes race on dirt and this is 36k Allowance due for turf has landed perfectly for him as I don’t think it would have ran on turf or they were willing to try him as it was a lowly level??
GL rest of the day folk ?
Meant to add NO R4 with Coral as they’ve declared it off turf so price is what you’ll get according to there R&Rs
Take that last bit back but he has form on turf and would have run.
?? ?
Runners dropping out and switches to dirt a plenty much like last night but Finger Lakes is dry for main bets and hopefully no mud baths. Switch to dirts fine but sloppy is a different read.
Add these Favourites for cheeky 6 fold at around 30/1 Skybet *
Thistledown Race 2 …Marisco 4/6
R3…Brig 8/15
Finger Lakes 5 …Three Two Zone 2/5
jumira bridge 4.35 ew
dolly Watkins 5.30 ew well done all winners yesterday
Golden gal 5-45 catterick.
11-8 top 2 finish NAP ? bet365.
Beat today’s favourite shesadabber by a length in this race last year on similar ground and today has a 3 pound swing.
Both arrive following wins but it’s a class 6 and these types are consistently inconsistent so likelihood is one of the others will have their turn today hence the place only bet
my ambition 6.40 nap
grey grey 6.50 nb
No you didn’t lol?
