Master Blueyes Has Sound Claims
Marten's Current Racing Diary | February 26th, 2017
I was quite taken with the way Master Blueyes won the Adonis Hurdle at Kempton on Saturday. Alan King’s grey was a fair handicapper on the Flat last summer, winning from a mark of 72 on his handicap debut at … Read More »

Anyone following the football selection over the past few weeks should be quite a long way ahead and Cardiff and Newcastle both won last week without conceding a goal. There is nothing as strong this week, though NEWCASTLE should win … Read More »
Blue Surf in good heart for this
Ian Carnaby's Racing News | February 25th, 2017
Friday saw a near miss with Amanda Perrett’s The Warrior, who has been gelded and was fit enough for his first appearance for several months when running in the seven-furlong handicap at Lingfield. He became very disappointing last term after … Read More »

Only a last-minute equaliser for West Brom at West Ham denied us three out of three last week and I am very happy with the way things are going. I was hoping the mixed bag of fixtures this weekend would … Read More »

It took Bristol City a long time to wear down Rotherham in a poor match at Ashton Gate last weekend but they got there in the end to keep our good run going. The profit was modest because Crystal Palace … Read More »
De Name Escapes Me may be the danger to Clyne
Ian Carnaby's Racing News | February 11th, 2017
The only thing that ever irritates me when writing a piece like this is rubbish prices and I have to say the odds about Pretend and Soldier In Action last week were simply ridiculous. Up against previous winners on his … Read More »
Bristol City at last
Ian Carnaby's Sports News | February 4th, 2017
I was happy enough with nearly forcing a draw last week as Norwich’s comfortable victory over Birmingham all but balanced Newcastle’s FA Cup defeat at Oxford. As I’ve been saying for a few years, the FA Cup is not a … Read More »
