Monday review

Small profit on the day (four points) with Horatio obliging in the last. Thatcherite was backed from 25/1 to 16/1 late on and ran a fair race in finishing sixth.

In the jockeys' championship it's now 50/1 bar three. We have two of them, however Hughes is still hanging in there around the 3/1 mark which is a concern. He is 17 behind RLM and ten behind Buick. I was pleased to see he was swanning around Ireland last week playing golf. Moreover he drew a blank at Windsor tonight. That's a losing sequence of 25 now with no winners in July. He doesn't ride tomorrow but then doubles up on both Wednesday and Thursday. I'm hoping if he doesn't close the gap by the end of the month he might throw the towel in as far as the championship is concerned. People obviously think he is still right in there with a chance though - hence the short price.
