📅🔥 I've listed 🔟 Things to watch out for next week that have interested me in the world of racing! 👇 1 - RATTLIN HOME makes his debut for Dan Skelton in a 2-mile Novice Hurdle at Bangor tomorrow. The 5YO beat The Mourne Rambler (Subsequent Cheltenham Festival winner) on PTP debut at Portrush last year, before joining team Skelton. He ran well on debut to finish 2nd in his bumper at Kempton, ran green, stayed on very nicely close home. He should be good enough to win on Hurdles debut and improve as he steps up in trip in time. 2 - STAR ROSE put up a good show on debut to finish third behind (GRAN DIA, 2nd in a G1 behind Giant Sequoia on next start) only beaten 4L. The Camelot filly (140,000gns) was ridden softly, ran green, stayed on nicely, the education shouldn't be lost on her. Holds entries at Nottingham on Wednesday & Bath on Thursday. 3 - REAL QUARTZ returns from injury over 2m5f in a handicap hurdle for Dan Skelton on Wednesday off 127. An unbeaten young horse for Sir Alex Ferguson and Ged Mason with untapped potential. He could simply out class this field on the way to bigger things, if his health is good. 4 - A SIGHT TO SEA was bought by team Skelton for £190,000 after winning a PTP at Lingstown impressively back in November. The Affinisea Gelding has two entries this week: - Stratford on Thursday & Uttoxeter on Friday. Dan Skelton: “He won his point well. He could be really good, and soft ground won’t be any issue at all.” 5 - METS TA CEINTURE a €710,000 purchase by Dan Skelton last seen finishing second to The Mourne Rambler in the Cheltenham Bumper has been entered for her jumps debut in a 2m Mares Novices Hurdle on Friday. Skelton: “She is speedy and honest. She is a little terrier. She is obviously going to be a leading mares’ novice hurdler based on her bumper form.” Big things are expected from this mega French purchase, she's 8/1 to win the Mares Novices Hurdle in March. 6 - SOOMAROY has left Nicky Henderson and joined Jamie and Josh Moore. The £190,000 purchase was a big hype horse for Hendo, failed to deliver. The Moore’s are wasting no time by entering him in a Novices' Handicap Chase at Ascot over 2m3f on Saturday. He remains on of interest, the betting vibes will be interesting on this one. 7 - UNCLE PAD was bought by Gigginstown Stud for £310,000 after romping home in his PTP at Ballyvodock in February. The son of Vadamos has been entered in the Bumper at Down Royal on Friday, he has a big reputation for Gordon Elliott. The yard has won 6/7 runnings of this race. 8 - MATIN MIDI ET SOIR was one of the most high-profile recruits from France in recent years for Henry de Bromhead and Robcour. I heard rumours he cost €1,000,000 off Francois Nicolle. His missed most of the season before being smashed off the boards (5/1 into 5/2f) in the 4YO Grade 1 at Punchestown on yard debut. He folded tamely, before weakening at the last behind Saratoga beaten 17L. The 4YO son of Doctor Dino is entered to for his Chase debut over 2m4f at Down Royal on Friday. I'm very excited by this horses potential. 9 - MINELLA ROCKETT has been entered by Clonmel legend John Nallen in a Listed Juvenile Hurdle at Wetherby on Friday. The son of New Bay has classy flat form, won a 3YO Maiden at Limerick, a very interesting horse to follow. 10 - NOTABLE SPEECH is going for back to back Breeders Cup Miles on Saturday night for Charlie Appleby. He's carrying my money, we're all hopefully cheering him home at 8.20pm at Keeneland. ✍️🏇 I hope you enjoyed reading what's on my mind for next week and following how it all works out. Best, Bloggsy

Been waiting for this thread all day and it did not disappoint Great read 👏 Just hope we see a great race and may the best horse win

Opera Ballo has turned into the wise guy horse, it's an obvious enough case. No shots at Kealy & Segal either, you have to take on a short one in that job and I'd do the same in their seat. I've stuck a fork in him though. This looks a fight between the three year olds 🥊

10 remain in the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes! 🏆 Bay City Roller Calandagan Goliath Lambourn Masquerade Ball (マスカレードボール) Wurttemberg (ヴェルテンベルク) Kalpana Minnie Hauk Action Benvenuto Cellini

GAMRAI 🏆 8/1 The flat is back with a lovely winner on the AW!

✅ "A tall, useful-looking sort, he’s very much in the mould of a chaser, and looks a most exciting prospect to me." 💰 With last week's action fresh in the mind, the Sporting Life and @Timeform team put forward their best ante-post bets for the 2027 Cheltenham Festival.
