Scoop6 racing tips delivered straight to your eyes by Donald Keys, legendary, heroic, muscular, racing tipster and friend to the animals. That's me. And this is the world's greatest Scoop6 tips section. We've been so close and yet so terribly far but our day will come. Have no fear. Could it be today? Why the hell not? Let's crack on.Leg 1 - 12.05 Market Rasen
The lovely Advancement catches the gunch once more having won for me recently. Everyone seems to fancy this beast though and that always puts me off a little. Maybe I shouldn't worry. But I do. 4/1 @ skybet is quite appalling really but there you go. I'm a little torn between Wizard Of Us 16/1 sybet and Moon Star 20/1 bet365 - the former it is then. God help us.
Leg 2 - 2.35 Newmarket
I feel so dirty. I'm struggling to see beyond the top 2 in the betting here. Don't hate me for this. Arthur's Girl 4/1 ladbrokes and Dar Re Mi 11/4 ladbrokes. I don't know why I feel so afraid today but I do. I even disgust myself. Sorry.
Leg 3 - 2.50 Newbury
I suppose if I ruled out Maghya here I'd be labeled a fool. I'm already labeled a fool though so.... no. I have to take it. Currently 7/2 @ ladbrokes. Looks a possible. I'm also going to try a right dodgy one in Aphrodisia 17/2 currently @ sportingbet. Needs some luck but hey, we always need some luck.
Leg 4 - 3.25 Newbury
Only the 23 runners in this one huh? You're making it too easy for me. Too many to love and not enough to hate. Marvellous. By the power of gut-hunch... I. Have. THE POWER!!! Mullglen 16/1 @ bet365 looks as good and/or rubbish as any. And another little gunch gamble with Bahamian Babe 8/1 sporting bet. I probably could have picked 20 or so from this one though. Let us pray too while we're at it. Amen. Next.
Leg 5 - 3.35 Newmarket
Hands up who likes a gamble? Me too. Cape 7/1 skybet requires a whole lot of faith here but I'm willing. I guess I have to jot down the favourite too: Temple of Thebes @ 3/1 skybet - I'm not entirely convinced but it's all I can be bothered with now.
Leg 6 - 3.40 Market Rasen
Shall we dance? Or shall we just keep on gambling. Brooklyn Brownie 11/1 skybet has the potential to do something interesting although it also has the potential to do something utterly embarrassing. What a rush. And I'm going to completely overlook the in-form favourite and plump for the far dodgier Seymour Weld @ 12/1 with paddy power and ladbrokes.
That's your lot. Do with them what you will. My enthusiasm isn't quite there today. Migraines, hangovers and an aching, cold, heart. Keep on breathing in the free world. We don't have long left. Good luck and see you next time. Won't I?
