Kempton (going forecast Chs G. Hdl GS some G) Market odds from 09.30. In races with multiple selections the highest rated trainer is given first but an alternative is to punt the runner with most market support near the off time.

4.45 Irlandais (13/8) D Skelton 16
 
I wasn't going to make any selections today but enthusiasm for my first list for the 2023 Flat turf has got the better of me! The attribute that has given this system an edge historically is where a runner has at least placed last time out.

Kempton (going forecast St to Slw showers) Market odds from 9.55. A Balding top track trainer.

5.30 Burnish (10/3) W Haggas 15, Saturnalia (4/1) R Hughes 7
6.00 Emborne (9/1) A Balding 20, Starlight Nation (6/1) C Cox 19, Naaser (10/11) G Boughey 18
6.30 Heddewoge (25/1) A Balding 20
7.00 Restrict (5/1) D Simcock 24, Berkshire Phantom (8/1) A Balding 23
 
Not been doing at all well punting-wise lately owing to faffing about too much, and today I shall not - faff about that is! Today's selections are strictly from the early market expected and my current top ten seasonal trainers merit list.

Wetherby (going forecast S showers) Early market expected from 8.50. D Skelton top track trainer with runners 2.50, 3.25, 4.55

1.40 Market expected no's 8, 3, 7, 9
Pougne Aminta (11/8) F O'Brien rates 25

2.50 Market expected no's 1, 8, 3.
God's Own Getaway (8/1) D Skelton rates 17, Thistlebuffs (5/1) L Russell rates 14. (Looks a difficult punt as 1. Cruz Control class drop 5 grades (2/5) early so perhaps God's Own Getaway each-way? T Lacey not listed).

Ascot (going forecast S) Market odds from 8.45. P Nicholls top track trainer runners 3.00 2, 3.35, 5.20

1.50 Milesfromwicklow (3/2) D Skelton 24
3.00 Arklight (13/2) N Henderson 21, Afadil (5/1) P Nicholls 20, Bad (7/2) B Pauling 15

G L Moore has been smashing it recently, nice treble yesterday. I always include Donald McCain Jnr on my list, his partnership(s) with Brian Hughes (& Theo Gillard) are quite fruitful. I also have to include A J Honeyball, his horses have been running well recently. Although, both McCain and Honeyball were useless yesterday.

Ollie Murphy (with Sean Bowen) is also a fruitful partnership. And I like Fergal O'Brien (with Paddy Brennan).

Since the following only have 1 runner today, I think I'll do a yankee:-

  • Donald McCain Jnr - Virtuoso 14/1 @ 14:00 @ Pontefract
  • Venetia Williams - Jolly Nellerie 11/1 @ 14:15 @ Exeter
  • Anthony Honeyball - Coquelicot 4/5f @ 15:00 @ Pontefract
  • Paul Nicholls - Ioupy Colonges 5/2f @ 15:45 @ Exeter
 
Very interesting R rbtblb82 !
Paddy Brennan ( bit wild) and Fergal O'Brien are old favourites of mine, and
I generally like to back Don McCain at Bangor.

Honeyball is a trainer I often mean to follow but usually forget, while Nicholls is one I never go near, despite his having been a top trainer for years.

Chesham Chesham, Balding is consistently good. Some say best with 2yo on their third or fourth run.
