Form She has won three times at 5f on good ground and on the all-weather. A winner at 11-1 at Musselburgh over 5f (good) on her latest outing last month, beating Barney McGrew by 2 1/4l. Has also won at Tipperary this season.
Comment MidasTouch 111011 Was no surprise it won at Wolverhampton Sat night but the manner of it's 4l victory was emphatic and is well worth following when returned to handicap company on the polytrack!
Almuftarris 14:40 - Brighton

Form A winner at 1m 2f on the all-weather. Finished 8l behind Buster Brown when fourth of 10 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Newcastle over 1m 2f (good to soft) last month.
Comment Aidanldrebin Alert 080711 & meoldmate 110412 Well bred colt who looked in need of the experience on debut, but shaped with promise, making notable late headway under considerate handling; will relish an extra furlong in time, but showed enough on debut to suggest he will win over 7f. Picked up like a good horse and looks to stay further.

Form Successful twice at 6f on good to firm and good ground. Beaten a neck by Jade when second of 10 at 14-1 on her latest outing at Nottingham over 6f (good) last month.
Comment deliusmiff 050512 Drawn out wide horse was dropped in at the rear of the field travelling well within himself, made steady progress through the field and switched to the outside was coming through to challenge when had to be snatched up 1f out following the concertina effect caused by dale Swift on Bold Fastrac. Jockey stopped riding and let horse coast home, would have gone very close imo. Horse is equally at home on Turf and poly and looks ready to win from this mark over 6/7fs.

Comment deswalker 060412 Very well handicapped on best form he ran an interesting race on reappearance at Redcar. Up with the pace early he was a bit outpaced through the middle of the race then stayed on in eye catching fashion to finish never nearer 6th. There should be one or two 6f or 7f handicaps in this one this year off a starting mark of 82.

Comment deswalker 240712 Expensive purchase who has shown little on the face of things in three maiden runs. Mid division all the way in a Windsor maiden on Monday, she would never have worried the leaders but nevertheless looks as if there may be a bit more to play with in time. Handicaps beckon.

Comment Aidanldrebin alert 251011 Out of a half sister to Al Kazeem and shaped with immenese promise when third in a good looking 1m maiden at Newbury, unlucky in running but travelling well; surefire winner; should stay 10f at three.

Your comments: beepee1984 251011 is one to watch next season over the middle distances and is far better than he showed today. He ran all over the course switching left then right, left and then when staying on (into probably 4th) hung badly into another horse which nearly stopped him completely before staying on again.

WINSILI is one of my personal horse alerts, the John Gosden trained filly ran an absolute cracker on her debut at HQ which I saw in person. Steering today Robert Havlin who rode her well last time to a hands and heels victory. Considering it was her first time out in a competitive field I thought there was a lot more to come from her, and a good run today could follow up an entry in very hot company. _________________ brewsty39

Your comments: The Executioner 200412 ( Paul Cole ) : Well made son of Aussie Rules with a pedigree to suggest that a furlong or two further than the minimum trip will suit as a juvenile. Looked in need of the run of his debut at Newbury in April and may be one to watch over the summer months.

Your comments: MidasTouch 200911 Saturday night at Wolverhampton, tracked leaders, switched right over 1f out, ran green inside final furlong, picked up well to lead close home. With a win like that should easily be able to follow and may even create a nice winning sequence!

Your comments: aidanldrebin 310812 Galileo third foal of a dual Grade 1 winner in the US; well regarded but far too green to do himself justice on debut, only really getting going inside the final furlong to take fourth; will know a lot more next time, and ought to thrive over 10f+ at three.

Your comments: Aidanldrebin Horse Alert 200711 Raced wide of the action on her debut but travelled nicely for a good deal of the way, looking a threat to all around the two furlong marker, fading soon after but far from knocked about once held; type to do a lot better in due course.

Your comments: deswalker 290612 I'm going to put this one up just because I have been noting this one being campaigned at between a mile and 10f generally this season, whereas he is a guaranteed stayer who won twice at 2 miles last season. He should go well when either returned to Epsom, or stepped back up in trip.

Your comments: meoldmate 191011 with Frankie Dettori not giving his mount a hard time from the saddle but stayed on nicely and will come on for this run and could be found a race either before the end of the season or she could find a nice race next year when filled out.

Your comments: aidenldrebin alert 270911 Dalakhani half brother to the yard's useful Epic who shaped as though stamina is his forte when a staying on fourth in a 10f maiden on debut, pushed along from around halfway but coming home well; should win his maiden before moving in to handicap company.

Your comments: deswalker 220712 Been a winning machine this year and its tempting to see his 5th yesterday at Ascot as the handicapper finally catching up with him, but he was on the unfavoured far side and the effort needs marking up as a result. More to come I'd think and could be listed class potentially at between 6f and a mile.

Your comments: Aidanldrebin 060911 Half sister to a handful of winners, including the smart La De Two, and shaped with a good deal of promise on debut, within herself for much of the way but proving unable to quicken, keeping on again inside the final furlong; type to do well over middle distances in 2012.

Your comments: aidanldrebin 250412 Sent off joint-favourite for his debut outing but proved too green to show his true worth, travelling smoothly for two-thirds of the way in midfield and attempting to challenge over a furlong out, keeping on without being able to match the winner; will do better with that behind him, and ought to stay 10f comfortably.

Your comments: deswalker 170712 Went off well backed favourite last night and was beaten into second, but it is clear in the closing stages (and from later results) that the CENTRE of the course was where they wanted to be on the run in and this one lead them all up the far side. Better than bare form suggests.

Your comments: deswalker 250612 Held up towards rear, this horse was one of only a couple to make progress from off the pace in the race. He also met trouble and had to weave around other competitors so the effort should probably be marked up accordingly.

Your comments: deswalker 230812 Not hiding much from the handicapper nowadays, but it may have escaped general notice the trouble that he experienced in running at York lto. He is better than the result and there's a possibility that he will be a decent price nto as a result.

Your comments: deswalker 210412 Great old horse, travelled best today before flattening late on over 5f on soft ground. It would be unwise to read too much into that form and better is possibly to come on decent ground and maybe when headgear is back on.

Your comments: Aidanldrebin 140911 Full brother to connections' smart 8-10f winner Genius Beast out of the top-class middle distance performer Shawanda; travelled well into contention and led entering the final furlong but was reeled in close home by a fellow newcomer; smart middle distance prospect.

Your comments: aidanldrebin 111011 Highly regarded son of Dansili who took a major step forward from his debut outing when winning a 1m maiden at Leicester with plenty to spare, travelling strongly throughout and only having to be hand ridden to score; huge amount of improvement left to come over 10f+ in 2012.

Your comments: aidanldrebin 111011 Full brother to connections' Leger winner Lucarno who made a winning debut in a decent enough maiden at Newcastle, well off the pace at one stage but coming through nicely to pick up the pieces, keeping on well to hold off the fast-finishing runner up; very nice middle distance prospect for next year.
