A blank day for the Tipsters Challenge yesterday. Our Central Park tipping needs a bit of a shake-up. Get in touch if you fancy giving it a go. (WARNING: Not suitable for sensitive souls)
Looking back to Saturday won’t be a problem for Rob Crawford +£200 or Glynn Dobbs +£162.50. Carl Perry on the other hand, needs to know whether you have seen that thing over there. No look. Over there. You just missed it! (whistle nervously) -£100 Don’t worry Carl – its two Geordies and a Jock tomorrow. Nobody will remember how bad you were!
NOTTINGHAM
The Big Lad Pierrepont is £230 up on the month – roll on the Derby. Terry Urquhart is -£50. The fresh Christian into the Colesseum is Freddie Barr – whose big fight billing reads ‘Chairman of the Nottingham & Leicester Professional Punters Association’ Somehow doubt you have stooped this low previously Freddie. Game on!

The views:
Mark Pierrepont:
Droopys Catapult (R7 T2)Did well to win on Nottingham debut for Newcastle’s Stuart Tighe last week. Went up in a decent enough 5.10 sectional despite being far from fluent at the start. Without doubt has nearer a 5 dead split in the locker. The move to trap two won’t be a disadvantage and a level break should be all he needs to be able to pace up and get round the bend in front. Will be home and hosed from that position with more than one or two of his rivals looking poorly drawn and crowding in behind is far from inconceivable £50 win.
King Cash (R9 T6) Ran well in defeat behind Knockboy Jet here a couple of weeks ago. Better drawn tonight , should turn in a handy pitch here and prove too good for tonight’s opposition £50 win

Freddie Barr
Clohena Kenzo (R4 T4) Better grade than this at best (well proven at A2 and did compete in A1). Will improve fitness wise for this run there’s no doubt about that but won’t line up in many A3 races with such a lack of early inside him. If he can break as he did in his sprint trial a couple of weeks ago he’d be a short price favourite to clear the inside. If he did, would be difficult to beat from that position. Outside pairing could well take each others ground £50 win.
Locnamon Mike (R5 T1) Ideally drawn here , likely race favourite Churchill Holly can pop out and lead but that only serves to drop Mike in behind in position A. Can strike on the run for home and provide Anna Thompson with a winner £50 win
d
Terry Urquhart
Vixons Lad (R6 T1) Lacks a look around which is a negative but looks absolutely plotted up otherwise against the rail £50 win.
Swift Lettuce (R8 T3) Trialled really well last week , ping break from trap 3 £50 win.
YARMOUTH
Month to date: Sensible Dave Prentice +£133.16 The Cash Machine +£113.55 Brett BB Hughes +£125. If Sensible Dave wins again tonight – five winning meetings out the last six – he will be getting some more hoover bags (you can never have enough hoover bags).

The views:
Dave Prentice
Feel The Heat (R7 T3) This veteran is a real credit to the Cross kennel, still running A1 at five years old. I can see him leading again tonight and hopefully holding off the late challenges of the orange and stripes. £50 win.
Wewillkeepher (R11 T5) I don’t like tipping dogs against mine or first time out, but if this new recruit repeats its trial times is certain to lead a field of strong finishers and hold on. £50 win

Brett Hughes
I found it a very hard card tonight but hopefully I’ve found a couple:
Waltzing Nancy (R1 T2) Irene Barnard’s pup has been running consistently well and looks the likely leader here. If that is the case, and she can hold the three and four to the corner, she should be enough to win this £50 win
Feel The Heat (R7 T3) although now into his fifth year he’s still running as well as ever and is usually very reliable at the boxes. Looking certain to make the bend in front, I’m hoping he can put enough daylight between himself and the stronger types in 5 and 6, to hold on and add another A1 to the already impressive CV. £40 win £10 double
Nigel ‘Cash Machine’ Tanner
Saving Amelia (R11 T6) got smashed at first bend last week and still only got beat under three lengths. So if she clears Jura Go Walpole (T2) at the first bend she will definitely go on to win this £100 win
