What a performance from Usain Bolt tonight, brilliant action!
In terms of our selections, not a lot to report on since Friday, with today's meeting at Chester abandoned after the third race, depriving us of a runner today, and just two other selections to look back on.

In terms of our selections, not a lot to report on since Friday, with today's meeting at Chester abandoned after the third race, depriving us of a runner today, and just two other selections to look back on.
On Friday we had:
TIME COURSE SELECTION 0.5pt/1pt/2pt win Bookmaker(s) / Price(s)
5.50 Newmarket Daruband 1pt 11/2+generally inc. 6/1 Lads/PP/Bluesq 7/1 Coral/Stan James
Daruband ran well for a long time, travelling comfortably and going odds on in running as things started to get serious, but unfortunately he seemed to run out of juice and ended up finishing 6th, after starting at 13/2.
On Saturday we had:
TIME COURSE SELECTION 0.5pt/1pt/2pt win Bookmaker(s) / Price(s)
4.00 Doncaster Fulgur 1pt 5/1 generally 11/2 SportingBet
Well the Racing Post analysis called Fulgur's showing "pleasing enough" - well not quite pleasing enough for us! Going off at 11/2 he was held up towards the back and made up some ground quite nicely, before things flattened out and he finished back in 9th on his first start in almost a year.
Today we had:
5.15 Chester Green Mitas 1pt 11/1 Hills/Lads 12/1 Bet365/Coral 14/1 Totesport/SkyBet/Betfred/Stan James
And we never got to see him in action with a thunderstorm and heavy rain forcing racing to unfortunately be abandoned after the third race.
Summary of Results:
Friday August 3rd:
Daruband, 6th/12, 6/1 --- 13/2
Saturday August 4th:
Fulgur, 9th/11, 5/1 --- 11/2
So there we are, hopefully this sporadic heavy rain will soon clear away and we get a good week of racing in the week ahead, with nice settled ground; you can but hope!
