    Plenty of bets today and apologies for the lack of detail, but behind schedule already -

    11.50 Greyville - AMBER FURST - Original choice was ELSA OF ARENDELLE, but could not have this one at 5/2. AF ran a fair trial race and can improve at 11's.

    12.25 Greyville - HOMETOWN HERO - Fair front - runner at this level and good chance at the weights at 10's.

    1.00 Greyville - SWEET PRESSURE and SHADOW HUNTER - SP can improve on debut effort at 20's and SH is marginally improving with each run at 40's.

    1.35 Greyville - OVER SURE - 3rd run back, so should be at peak fitness and has a good draw to work from today at 14's.

    2.05 Cheltenham - QUARRY LEADER - Won his Irish point and rules debut was a fair effort. Will need to improve, but definitely open to it at 50's.

    2.10 Greyville - KINGSMEAD and FIRST MATE - Going with the pair of Michael Roberts runners at 25's and 40's respectively.

    4.00 Greyville - WHITELEAF HILLS - Could make a case for NIGHT LOCK, but this one is not one to trust, especially at 5's. WH has a decent pull with the top weight and is better than recent runs suggest. Definite EW potential at 16's.

    4.10 Newmarket - COTUBANAMA - Channon 2nd string, but looks a nicely bred newcomer at 20's.

    5.45 Kempton - GEOGRAPHY TEACHER - Not knocked about on debut and can improve at 12's.

    6.45 Kempton - INTERMORAL - Quite short at 5's ( based on recent form ) but is in decent nick and has the first time hood added.

    1.15 Happy Valley - MEGATRON - Probably had to go up to a class 4, following an easy win in class 5 company. Has won in the grade before though and gets in today off bottom weight, with a decent 5lb claimer booked. Draw could have been a shade kinder in 7, but enough going for him at 12's.

    12.45 Happy Valley - AMAZING GOLD - Was initially looking at LOADED, but cannot quite justify a bet at 5's. AG was initially trainer by Ger Lyons and did look to have a bit of a future. Was campaigned at a very high level initially in Hong Kong and made very little impact. Bits and bobs since then and has at least been competitive in higher-grade events this season and a revival at 25's would not be the greatest shock ever.

    Here's hoping for Shadow Hunter then at a price. Bit of support for Sweet Preserve and now 12's

    Nice place again Samoan. I got 20/1 about that!
    It's a shame i've got to leave it there. Good luck for the rest of the afternoon.

    1.45 Happy Valley - VICTORY POWER - Most of these have a ton of experience, so taking a real risk going with a newcomer. Should be all right in time though, so happy taking a chance today at 50's.
