Uncle Fiddler

Always loved horses and racing, I Used to run and edit Final Furlong Magazine in the nineties ( if anyones old enough to remember it before the internet) and have owned various horses with various trainers since then. Selections are found from experience, hard form study, watching replays, knowing the tracks and the horses. Get inside the trainers head and talk to the horses! Never be put off by long odds! Low grade handicaps are where I get the best results. Been involved with racing for 40 years now, only follow NH and I take horse racing bets seriously. Football I bet on for fun. Horses I bet on to make a profit. Steady consistent profit from value single bets is the goal, with a few EW doubles along the way. Have a Top Day! Uncle Fiddler....

Win

Sawpit Samantha got this trip well when tried over it for the first time last time, finishing well to take 3rd. The long run in at this track will give her time to get going and she showed on that run 4 weeks ago that she picks up well on good ground. Worsley claims 3lb which offsets the 1lb out the handicap, so she is better off this time than last. Should be able to make her presence felt with a late run today.

Geezer Rockstar ran his best race on good ground in a Class 3 maiden at Ascot last March. Four races since in better class or on softer ground have not been inspiring, but he has dropped 8 lb in the weights and is dropped to a Class 4 event today for return from 6 months off following wind surgery. The win at Ascot came after 83 days off. With the yard in form, he could be fully wound up and has big claims in this if that's the case.

Tamworth need a win to keep slim hopes of the playoffs alive, while hosts Forest Green need a win to secure a top three finish. Both sides see plenty of goals in their games, and this should be no exception.

Rochdale are 5th and Fylde are 23rd. It's too late for Fylde to save their season, but for Rochdale, a point guarantees the playoffs. It should prove to be an open game, and Fylde have conceded the 2nd highest amount in this division.

Boston have worked miracles to get away from the drop zone and have a chance for another three points against mid-table hosts Solihull. It should prove an open game with goals set to flow.

Electric Mason has shown some good form in defeat in very competitive events in 3 of the last 4 starts. Acts on today's ground and today's race is easier on paper than recent races. Rider's claim can help.

Getaway Jewell, back from a 124-day layoff, has only been beaten by 3 lengths or less on all three starts when following a break under Brian Hughes. On a very good mark now, goes well here (2 wins) and will enjoy the quicker ground. Last run in December, ground described as good was more soft than good. Very consistent at today's trip with proper good ground. Capable of making the frame at least. 12/1 look good ew value.

All wins for Belgarum have been on good ground and he returns here after a 6-month break following wind surgery. His last three starts were either on ground with give or in a better grade. If he can now pick up from where he left off from his two wins in August and September last year, he has EW claims at least.

Zucayan has been knocking on the door of late and running on well late, suggesting today's extra couple of furlongs will suit, as will the ground. Was behind Greatness Awaits on penultimate start but weighted to reverse that form today, and many other rivals have a bit to prove. Good value for the win at 3/1 or above.

Our Champ goes well at this track: 2 wins, 2 seconds from 4 starts. Won this race last year, and although he has more weight to carry today, he ran well at the festival and the yard is hitting form.

Jorebel ran well on the 2nd handicap start last time (same rider but without claim) and went well enough around here on the penultimate start. The 6yo is a likely improver, and it won't take much to strike a big blow in this.

Christopher Wood ran his best race for some time last time out and reverts to hurdles for the first time since 2022 when he was running in top-class races off marks of 141+ (Including 2nd at Ascot in aclass 2). Not done well over fences, although he has shown he can get this trip. With his favoured soft ground anticipated, looking in good heart, this makes him offer some value at 14/1.

Janeslittlevoice returned from a massive 518-day layoff last time to run very well for a long way until tiring four out and pulled up three out. The 11-year-old is sure to be fitter for that run today. A course and distance winner on heavy ground, she was progressing well in 2023 with figures of 22131 before the enforced break. Tucker returns to the saddle today with her 7lb claim and gets plenty of weight from her rivals in what will be a slog on today's going.

Law Of Supply finished last year with a form of 3113 and returned from an almost 3-month break last time in a class 3 at Newbury, where it appeared the lightly raced 7-year-old needed it. The yard is in better form now, and a return to a right-handed track can also help. Gets the trip well, acts on any ground, and has shown a bit more than today's two rivals. If returning to his best today, this is a clear winning chance.

John Betjeman got going late on around the sharp left-handed Plumpton track last time and finished well. The extra furlong today at another left-handed sharp track will aid his cause. Visor goes on for the first time, and with five 2nd places gained on soft, he won't be inconvenienced by the ground. This race is slightly less competitive on paper than the last and presents a winning opportunity for the 9-year-old.

Universal Secret has only had six chase starts. Four of them were in better class races than today, and the 8-year-old has been learning the game. He has proved he can jump well and fluently, and this trip should prove ideal as he kept on in two of the chase starts to take 2nd. Pulled up when well out of the handicap on the penultimate start and was badly hampered twice on the home turn before getting outpaced last time over 2m.

Glengolly ran well in November after a long break and then was unlucky to unseat rider (UR) when going well four out over 3m, good to soft, at Wetherby in December. Pulled up (PU) in January after an early mistake, then came back from a two-month break to finish 5th last time, shaping as if he would come on for the run. Sheehan rides and has a good strike rate for the yard. Last time he rode, it was before he joined this yard. It was a moderate affair, and he has shown he has enough to do well here.

Reagrove Lord put in two good runs over further, one here in Dec and Jan, both soft, and shaped as if they stretched him a touch. Has gone well on good ground in pointing career, and the better ground today with a drop in trip can see the 7yo in better light.
