This feels a bit like Boxing Day again…
I will post the HRB ratings pointers at some point on Sunday morning as I will be busy for the rest of the day/evening before the cards are uploaded.
(if there are HRB users who wish to highlight any ratings pointers in comments that would be welcome, albeit that is my job and as I said will be posted as early as I can Sunday morning)

Cheers Jamie, much appreciated. Happy New Year!
12.50 Cheltenham….
using ratings from HRB and comparing them with another set of ratings (not Geegeez) I would narrow the race down to Vyta Du Roc & Lamb or Cod and both have been backed.
two others to consider are Arpege Dalene (price short) & A Good Skin….with the big outsider Troika Steppes also in for consideration
3.30 Exeter…..
again two again the field….Achimota & Midnight Request and both have been backed…..Bramble Brook is not a big price and Fourovakind, Silver Commander and Castarnie make up the rest to be considered.
1.05 Musselburgh…..
a Novice Hcap Chase……
Misfits & Mister Don qualify but I don’t think they have decent value so I have backed two others in the race……Buckled and Vinni Gambini with a danger being Rolling Thunder (a combo Trnr/Jcky)…..might just back that as well
I have tried to reduce the races to the top 5 with best form ratings….combined with those horses who are top 2 rated in HRB using the 4 columns that I tend to concentrate on as shown on their race-card
the other group that finds the winners, which I have left for today but will examine nearer the start-time……are those in the first 3 in betting but don’t have a HRB top 2 rating (in the 4 columns I use)
I have rated and assessed all of today’s Handicaps but I left off Fakenham (small fields)…see what happens P or L ??
These where my selections:
Lamb Or Cod
Samingarry
Village Vic
Thomas Brown
Rolling Maul
Discoverie
Nefyn Bay
Royal Mcnab
Arthers secret
Umberto D’olivate WON BSP 13.0
Artifice Sivola WON BSP 3.9
These where all using Ratings the above selections.
