Todays thoughts

I'll concentrate on the racing that definitely goes ahead. There is some good racing today and i like the Graduation chase at Ascot (1.55). Hells Bay is my preferred choice based on his Dipper Novice win. Negatives are that Tizzard isn't in the best of form, Tizzards awful record at Ascot and the lay-off, although the latter may not be such a bad thing. In the 1.35 french bred Renard took a couple of races to acclimatise but has won his last three in fine style and with AP booked will take all the beating. The Ladbroke Hurdle is a tough one to call, but Via Galilei is well over-priced.

Haydock goes ahead and the ground is going to be as testing as you say Martin

have been wsaiting for Hells bay too Martin but is too short first time up at the current price for me on soft ground
Good luck with Renard can be a pig and have him as a whip rule minus in my book will be taking my chances with King Edmund on the ground under Cannon(yep I know have followed this one over the cliff before!)

Agree your choice in the Ladbrook has a great chance is well overpriced and form is in the book
