I am babysitting the nephew this weekend, or the two and a half year old is looking after me depending on your point of view, so it is very unlikely I will get the chance to spend hours going through the racing form - potty training, swimming, finding bugs and chasing imaginary dragons taking precedence.
In the world of little Frankie Captain Barnacles Bear, Kwaxii Kitten and the rest of the Octonauts gang are of much more interest than Richard Hughes and Henry Cecil but the little fella does quite enjoy watching the horses so I might get Channel Four Racing on for an hour or two and I will be backing a couple over the weekend.
In the 3.55 at Newmarket on Saturday we have some nice types and my eye has been taken by Siren's Song. The filly ran a big race when seventh in the Oaks and she can make the most of this drop in grade.
On Sunday we of course have the big meeting at the Curragh including the Irish Derby. The Queens Carlton House set to line up and will be sent of favourite for the race. I have made no secret of my liking of the horse, I backed him at Epsom, and I am confident he will be successful this time.
Be lucky
