Good morning...It was a half day for me yesterday as it was my birthday.
Back to work with a vengeance today.
I've just looked at the early morning test ratings and it looks like a good day of racing for us in UK.
And with Irish racing coming back from Monday,
It seems that things are returning to normal...
Whatever normal was in the first place.
As well as today's 3 meetings in the UK, we have 7 International races that I've managed to rate and...
Another 3 for tomorrow.

EarlyBird Ratings
Since the return of GB racing we have only had 3 EarlyBird Diamonds and Gold selections.
2 of those 3 selections won.
So our strike rate, so far, is 66.67%
We have made 7.38 points profit to ISP and...
10.60 points profit to BSP (assuming a 2% commission.)
Our Profit on Stakes to BSP is 353.3%
Focus Ratings members can subscribe to these selections for free,
Just send me a mail and I'll set it up.
The selections normally come out about 5:30pm the evening before the day of the race.
There were no selections for yesterday.
PlaceProfits.com members - if you wish to receive the EarlyBird Ratings Diamond and Gold selections until the racing settles down and we start getting Place Profits selections again, just email me and I'll put you on the list.

Ante Post Ratings
From next week I shall be rating (well in advance) any decent races that need to be rated as part of my Ante Post Ratings service.
Obviously, you as Focus Ratings members will get access to these ratings for free.
Now, I anticipate that I should be able to produce Ante Post Ratings for all big race entries about month before the race.
I shall be mainly concentrating of the big GB festivals such as Epsom, Goodwood, Cheltenham, Boxing Day, Ascot and so forth but...
I'll also be covering the Irish festivals as well.
In addition, I'll be covering the big International meetings/festivals/races as well.
Races like the Japanese Derby (did I mention that our top rated horse won that race?)
And races like the French 2000 Guineas (did I mention that our top rated horse won that race?)
I'm also quite excited about doing the Melbourne cup and, in the States, the Breeders Cup and so forth.
I will be updating the PDFs twice a week (Mondays and Thursday) to weed out any horses that aren't going to actually run.
If you think that there are any decent races/meetings/festivals that I'm missing out on, please let me know.
Place Profits
There were no Place Profits selections yesterday.
Place Profits only uses races with 5 to 7 runners;
Because of the large fields over the last week, this reduces the number of selections.
This makes it 4 wins and 5 seconds from the last 10 races (taking the 2 non-runners into account.)
Something to make you smile...

Whatever you are up to today...
Stay safe and healthy.
As always...
My kindest regards
