Hello regulars


2.30 Gladiatorus could be great. 5/2 seems good price for horse that has the best form by far of those in race. Small E/w Mac Love purely because I won on it at Epsom last time, and they've stumped up the money to enter it.


3.45 Soul City 35/1 Has nothing to find on 2yo form. Excuse last race last year and first this as tired and needing the run/unsuitable going (heavy) and 35s on bf seems a great price. 800k in prize money so far is almost double the odds on fav.


Good luck.

Buggie - one of the joys of racing is that each course, day, race is different so you can't really say 'done the races'. Although in Ladies Day at Ascot you've picked one of the most hectic!!!! Biggest tip - if you're going by train stay behind after the races, dance with the band at the banstand, always excellent fun when you've had a few and kind of helps with the crowds a bit ( and make sure you visit the ladies before you leave the course before the long walk up to teh station and the inevitable wait for a train....if you like it then try Fakneham on an easter Monday next for a totally different experience!

Scenic Blast great pick. Will he do a Choisir on Saturday??

Loved his white face. Such a strong action. Wille Carson pot kettle "ugly".

THE opening day of Royal Ascot left one major bookmaker surveying a scene of "carnage" after heavily backed favourites Scenic Blast, Mastercraftsman and Canford Cliffs proved the major culprits on a day of expensive woe for the layers.


While Strike The Tiger offered bookmakers some relief by taking the finale at 33-1, the afternoon's two other winners, Paco Boy and Judgethemoment, were also popular with punters.


Victor Chandler spokesman Neal Wilkins said: "Mastercraftsman, Canford Cliffs and Judgethemoment were truly awful results. Canford and Judgethemoment were massive losers in the book, and it was hard to take. It's been carnage here. They are going out of the trading room on stretchers."


:-$ Bookies embarrassed at Ascot. [favourites for the rest of the week will no doubt be shortened further]

      I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).

      We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery

      Jewellery making? Recommendations

      By byngo · Posted

      Hi. Does anyone know of a silver making jewellery workshop. I am trying to find something nice for my daughter’s 18th birthday.l for her and some friends but everything I find online is too pricey or can’t accommodate 10 girls. Thanks

      Without doubt a busy road with constant traffic - but can always put in double glazing. If you have a car, don’t expect to park right outside - prob further away but with walking distance. Agree with PeckhamNicola re train times and freight but at least not wizzing by every few minutes! Sorry but little experience in state schools - obviously you have plenty of private - Jags Dulwich College, Alleyns. Judith Kerr on Half Moon Lane - good rep - no idea whether secondary or primary  - think primary. Also Charter School North - good reputation and Ark Evelyn - no idea! You might also look at West Dulwichand Crystal Palace Schools. Try Harris Academy as well. All the best.
