I know it isn't called that anymore but it rolls off the tongue. It's a great week, with Goodwood in the afternoon riolling in to Galway... I don't think anyone on here prefers the flat, but does anyone have any fancies?

I've not got any ante-post plays for the week and haven't really had a proper look - so I'll be more day-by-day - Will have a proper look for tomorrow after Galway finishes tonight but if anyone has any pearls of wisdom feel free to share...
 
I’m all over Confiding at 9/2 in the Vintage. He looked green on debut but won a good looking maiden consult with 7 of those in behind all winning next time out. The trainer believes he is very similar to Advertise who was second in the Coventry before winning the July Stakes. Dark Vision is the obvious danger but I’m very hopeful my fella will prove to be top class.

Stradivarius at 8/13 is the centre of many multiples across the week including an 11/2 double with Without Parole.

Tuesday selections:
1:50 – Silver Line @ 15/2

2:25 – Confiding (NAP) @ 9/2

3:00 – Tip Two Win @ 4/1

3:35 – Stradivarius @ 8/13

4:10 – Al Mureib @ 7/4

4:45 – Amomentofmadness @ 14/1

5:15 – Move Swiftly @ 10/3
 
Sky have an offer, money back (max £50 but this will vary per customer) as a free bet if you lose in the 1.50.
Gives you an interest in a tough ‘cap and a free Chelt voucher if you’re chinned...
 
4.45 Boom the Groom 11/1.
Hard luck stories dominate big sprints but this one had had more than his fair share.
Won this 2 years ago off 98 then followed up at York off 102, been unlucky since and always punted so expected to go close, now off 90 brings course, distance and ground form and looks to be the one to beat for me....
 
Dunkerron -2-25 , D'Bai - 3-00 , Stradivarius - 3-35. today for me.

The buggers gave me a max £20, stuck it on Medrano
 
Desert Skyline looks a really big price now it's drifted out to 25's with the champ jocked up, difficult to beat the fav but if you ignore his last run DS has been consistent and chased Stradivarius home back in May.
 
Just fyi Desert Skyline is available at 9/1 with 365 for 4 places, 14/1 for 3 places
 
My knowledge of flats is pitiful compared to jumps but I've got a bit of form from the weekend so I've chucked the following L15 on, which is a little more speculative hope then expectation of seeing anything back!

1.50 Tuff Rock
2.25 Cosmic Law
3.00 D'bai
3.35 Stradivarius
 
1pt Afaak 7/1
1pt Confiding 9/2
1pt D'bai 9/1

All three also in a super heinz with some Galway horses.
 
At least 3 of us got D'bai in multiples there , let's hope it does'nt disappoint !!,. I done the same as you faugheen ,
tagged 2 Galway horses on to make up a L.31.
 
Was supposed to be going tomorrow on a jolly, but got benched to cover a super important meeting. The people going coming to me for tips is not what I need right now!
 
Tomorrow's "Galwood " L.31 - 1. -Corgi - 2-25.
2. -Without parole - 3-35.
3. -Macgilony - 5-10. glwy.
4. -Aydoun - 5-40.
5. -Calino D'airy - 7-20.
good luck to all.
 
Sky offer today not as good, money back if your horse finishes 2nd or 3rd. Have gone for Lil Rockerfella because of the jock, but Coeur de Lion ran a cracker behind Stratum Saturday before last so would expect a big run from him too
 
Don’t want to aftertime but I had Northwest frontier and Lil Rockerfella in the first.

Other bets are:
2:25 - Corgi 11/2 (very strange market last night with Making Miracles favourite ahead of Corgi who smashed him at Ascot).
3:00 - Soldiers Call 5/2
3:35 - Without Parole (NAP) 7/4 and a double at 11/2 with Stradivarius
4:10 - Yourtimeisnow 3/1
4:45 - Magnolia Springs 9/2 (course specialist. Seen he’s been very well backed overnight now).
5:55 - Vale Of Kent 9/1
 
I know Hannon targets Goodwood so applying some of my Cheltenham style thinking (Elliot/Davy) put 4 of his today in a little e/w trebles set

3:00 - Neverland Rock
3:35 Billesdon Brook
4:10 Water Diviner
5:20 Embour
 
Communique starts the day today, with the Sky offer, not a great offer, but an offer nonetheless.

I've just left it today. Couldn't find a bet I fancied to hit the frame. Best of luck

I never bother with the second or third options, seems a weird way to cover the bet imo. I only go for their money back on losers options
 
I know what you mean about the offers, I wouldn't back anything I didn't fancy, and Communique looked too big at 5/1.
