Selections and approximate odds:

Apologies our plans to place the bets and include Haydock selections have gone pear shaped!

Ascot 2.20: TRIBAL CHIEF 5-1 backed into 9-2 and left a lot to do flying in the final half furlong into third, but The Wizard Of Eye at 20-1 and Great Acclaim at 12-1 were not for pegging back. Back in 4th was Golden Mind at 33-1 with Royal Zabeel at 40–1 in 5th.

Ascot 2.55: BULLETIN 7-1 drifted to 15-2 and could only manage second to bottom weight Wine Dark Sea at 16-1 with Opportunity at 4-1 just behind our lad in third with Too Soon at 50-1 back in 4th.

Ascot 4.40: JUAN LES PINS 6-1

Naas 4.57: ICE DANCER 9-1

Hexham 5.42: SARACEN BEAU 9-4

May 2nd Saturday – Bet 1 of 5

We have placed two batches of £1 ew combination Lucky 15s as we have two selections in the 2.55 at Newmarket – the other four picks will be the same in both sets of bets. Spend on the Lucky 15s £300. We presently have 105 memberships in this syndicate.

We have also placed two £10 ew accas on the five, so overall spend in the day is £340.

Selections and approximate odds:

Newmarket 2.20: FIFTH COLUMN 6-1 drifted to 13-2 and sadly just beaten by Erzindjan at 17-2 with Tycoon at 22-1 in third.

Newmarket 2.55: RUMSTAR 4-1/ FROST AT DAWN 9-1 Rumstar backed into 7-2fav found just Night Raider too good as Shagraan at 6-1 was back in third with JM Jumgle at 20-1 in 4th. Our other pick Frost At Dawn drifted to 10-1 and faded out of it.

Newmarket 3.35: BOW ECHO 4-1 a lovely drift to 9-2 and a wonderful win as Billy got the fractions right and turned the race into a procession going well clear from Gstaad at 3-1Jf with the other joint fav Distant Storm back in third with Into The Sky at 18-1 back in 4th.

Punchestown 5.30: TRIPOLI FLYER 10-1 drifted to 14-1 and a fair third behind Hello Neighbour at 12-1 with Kopeck De Mee in front of us at 18-1 with Letos back in 4th at 11-1.

Newmarket 5.55: CLASSIC ENCOUNTER 11-2 drifted to 6-1 and could only manage 6th, so killing our £10 ew acca and the sea of green on one set of bets. Spanish Voice at 5-1 won from Final Night at 40-1 with Sterling Knight at 11-1 in third and Man Of La Mancha 7-2 fav in 4th a nose ahead of I Still Have Faith at 17-2 in 5th ahead of our lad. With the Guineas winner and three places in one set of bets and the Guineas winner and two places in the other set we are off to a winning start with the Series. Returns on the day £485.88.
