27 may at newcastle 8.10 2mile Sendali holds a great chance this race - some rain this afternoon will be worth a couple of pounds that's for sure. Currently 7/1 -13/2 and have taken the 7s (Bethell yard loves a punt )with a bet in running as it loves to jog along at the back ...His mark means he needs to run to the same level as his last run here (I made him getting 53 and he runs off that mark tonight.) looking at the form book he has run this distance 8 times with a 78% strike rate and on this track has come second and won at this distance and ground was both g/sft and g/frm.

this term has been out twice on the flat winning the first at Redcar and next at Catterick both of which does not really suite this galloper. my mark for him was 53 as opposed to the Official rating of 50.

my notebook says always back this one at newcastle and see no reason to be worried that he cant do it again tonight

good luck to anyone reading this - would love any comment to the contrary or selection
