ANOTHER fascinating day's racing in store at York, although it has to be said, it looks like one to watch rather than one to get too heavily involved in. However, it will be interesting to see if the formerly smart New Seeker can bounce back to form in the 3.10.

YORK stages today's feature card with some cracking racing in store at the Knavesmire, including acknowledged Oaks trial, the Musidora Stakes at 2.40, in which classy fillies from the powerful yards of John Gosden, Aidan O'Brien, Jim Bolger, Sir Michael Stoute and Barry Hills line up.

ANOTHER tricky day's racing in store (and the probable raft of non-runners continuously dribbling in throughout proceedings is hardly helpful to punters!) and I'm off to that notoriously tricky' venue, Brighton for today's nap nomination, which runs in the second race on the card at 2.40.

A FAIRLY busy Monday programme with three cards this afternoon at Wolverhampton, Redcar and Yarmouth and evening programmes at Windsor and Towcester.

YESTERDAY'S nap, Extraterrestrial was a most unlucky loser. The 9/2 shot was twice halted when making a move before finally getting a run and just failing by a neck to overhaul the eventual winner, Celtic Sultan who had the run of the race.

THE Dee Stakes (2.15) and the Ormonde Stakes (2.45) are the feature races at Chester this afternoon and although neither appeals as a great betting medium I do have a sneaky fancy for Henry Cecil's Unnnefer in the former.

YESTERDAY'S nap was backed down from 5/1 in the morning before doing the business nicely at 9/4 and hopefully we can keep up the winning run today when Chester again stages the most valuable card, with the Chester Vase at 2.45 the feature event. This looks a bit tricky with Sir Michael Stoute, Barry Hills and John Gosden all saddling strong contenders, along with the in-form Aidan O'Brien whose Vivaldi just gets my vote.

MAGIC Echo was an impressive course-and-distance winner at Southwell last time out and the 4-year-old can defy a 6lb penalty to repeat the dose today and land the nap.
