I think I should draw a veil over yesterday's selections. I have been kicking myself hard and often, for I looked at the Tizzards' Cue Card in the morning and for some inexplicable reason failed to back the beats, who won yesterday's bumper with aplomb at a price of 40/1 .
So for today:
1:30 Jewson Novices´Handicap Chase: Seven is my Number
2:05 Pertemps Final Handicap Hurdle: Don't Push It
2:40 Ryanair Chase: Petit Robin
3:20 Ladbrokes World Hurdle: Tidal Bay
4:00 Byrne Group Plate Handicap Chase: I'm So Lucky
4:40 Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup: Shillingstone
In the last race of the day, the Lady Riders Charity Race, run to raise money for Cancer Research UK, most off-course bookies aren't offering odds, but Paul Nicholls seems to have confidence in Watergate on the faster going, ridden by Georgie Browne. I certainly wouldn't back anything ridden by a Murdoch.
