Urgent appeal – will anybody who thinks they can find a winner at Central Park, please get in touch. The assembled trio of Rab McNair, Patrick Janssens and Syrup Collett are crap! (3 x £-100 AGAIN). We have been permission to have them destroyed (not particularly humanely), and their useless remains will be spread on the rose garden at Ladbrokes House. (Which is way too good for them).

Fairways Flyer (R5 T2) Lynn Cooks dog was just about to turn the first bend in front on his last competitive appearance but got sandwiched at the bend and unfortunately got brought down. He’d missed the kick a little on that occasion but his superior early pace almost but not quite got him out of trouble. He’s had a few weeks off the card to recover but trialled well last week when recording 1805 over the 305m trip. I think the racing office have been very fair in giving this dog every chance to recover his confidence at the turn tonight. Haggswood River drawn inside him wouldn’t be able to live with his pace to the bend at the best of times but given that she is only approximately 8 weeks through season , chances are she’s not quite at her best just yet. To the outside of Flyer he has 3 dogs to his immediate right who do their best work when leading clear themselves and the dog that does finish well drawn in trap 6 isn’t likely to get the clearest of runs. A level break from Flyer and he can get round the bend in front and take this A2 in style £50 win.
Knockboy Jet (R10 T2) Trainer Gary Ferguson and owner Billy Thompson certainly aren’t shy in putting the miles in with their dogs and they yet again head to Nottingham this evening with some live chances. The best of which though looks to be Knockboy Jet who returns to Nottingham after a couple of weeks break having been brought down here on his last visit. Jet looks plotted up here in red and a level break should be all he needs to make the bend in front and from that point onwards he would want some pegging back £50 win

Churchill Molly (R3 T1) – Looks very well drawn against the rail for Lynn Cook , can pop out nicely and make every post a winning one £50 win.
Helens Beauty (R4 T1) Terry Munslow’s bitch is in terrific form and comes into tonight’s race off the back of two successive victories in this grade of A3. Can complete the hat-trick in style £50 win

Sam Tingle
Jet Stream Jimmy (R9 T3) – Wouldn’t need to find much in the way of improvement for Carol Grasso to take this. Wasn’t beat far last week and with the benefit of that look around under his belt he can land the spoils tonight £40 win.
Knockboy Jet (R10 T2) – Gary Ferguson’s charge is well pitched on the rail and if coming away can quickly assert £30 win.
Fight The Power (R12 T3) – Has been running in better class than he faces tonight and this looks a great opportunity for Carol Weatherall’s classy sort £30 win.
YARMOUTH
The Cash Machine turned in a £110 profit last Monday, and £250 last Wednesday.

All in tonight on Aberlady (R4 T4) This very consistent bitch ran a great race last time when not leading and tonight I’m hoping she can clear T1 & T2 to the bend and hold off fast finishing traps three and six £100 win

Two selections for me tonight. The first one is tell on Matilda (R9 T6). I think we’ve yet to see the best of this bitch. Obviously well thought of as she previously contested a couple of six bend opens and with winning form over further in Ireland she can account for a field where a few of them have questions to answer over the trip £60 win
My next one is Easten Icon (R12 T3). Being the youngest in the race ,she’s still open to a bit of improvement. With not a lot of pace to clear on her inside, and the five dog likely to give the six trouble (due to his tendency to move off the second bend), Linda Brown’s bitch could find herself in front early here, and after catching the eye staying on last time out, would surely prove hard to hold £40 win
Nigel ‘Cash Machine’ Tanner
This is a very hard card tonight so I’ve gone for Hello Dotty (R7 T4). With 1-2-3 all have decent early pace so she might get a good run into the race and with a clear run, she is definitely the quickest dog in the race £50 win .
Craan Tara (R12 T1) I make this a two dog race between Craan Tara and Pawsome Dakotas. I think this race will be very messy with two going middle and Mill Gino (T5) going very wide . I think Craan Tara could pickup the pieces here £50 win
