Good morning...
I suppose that, for me, the interesting race at Sunday's meeting at Sha Tin is the 10:15 Cornwall Stakes.
And not just because I was born in Cornwall!
The top 3 rated horses all have a rating of greater than 2.0 and the 4th rated horse has a rating of 1.63
This would indicated that, according to the ratings, the race should be won by one of the top 3 rated horses.
Also, I'm kind of intrigued about the 6:45 Somerset Handicap as it seems to have a great Jockey/Trainer combination.
If you remember what Daniel (our man in Hong Kong - sort of) shared with us last week...
"The following jockeys are the only ones making profits, Chadd Schofield, Matthew Poon and T. Piccone, so well worth keeping an eye on.
Peter Yui, David Hall, and Tony Millard are the 3 trainers making money same applies they are worth keeping an eye on at the moment."
Once again, thanks to Daniel for that.
As you'll see, in the 6:45, for the top rated horse, we have a profitable jockey with Chadd Schofield and a profitable trainer with Tony Millard.
Our 3rd rated horse is ridden by Joao Moreira whom Daniel suggests is over bet; thus, there should be a good price for our top rated horse.
Might be worth keeping an eye on?

Something to make you smile...
Cyanide
A lady walked into a drugstore and told the pharmacist she needed some cyanide right away.
The pharmacist naturally was concerned by such a request and asked, “Why in the world do you need cyanide?”
The lady then explained that she needed it to poison her husband.
The pharmacist’s eyes got big and he said, “I can’t give you cyanide to kill your husband!
That’s against the law!
I’ll lose my license.
They’ll throw both of us in jail and all kinds of bad things will happen!
Absolutely not!
You cannot have any cyanide!”
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist’s wife.
The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, “Well, now. You didn’t tell me you had a prescription.”
Sneezing
The woman sneezed, took out a tissue, gently wiped her nose, and then visibly shuddered for ten to fifteen seconds.
The man went back to his reading.
A few minutes later, the woman sneezed again, took a tissue, wiped her nose, and then shuddered violently once more.
Assuming that the woman might have a cold, the man was still curious about the shuddering.
A few more minutes passed when the woman sneezed yet again.
As before, she took a tissue, wiped her nose, her body shaking even more than before.
Unable to restrain his curiosity, the man turned to the woman and said, “I couldn’t help but notice that you’ve sneezed three times, wiped your nose and then shuddered violently. Are you OK?”
“I am sorry if I disturbed you. I have a very rare medical condition. Whenever I sneeze I have an orgasm.”
The man, more than a bit embarrassed, was still curious. “I have never heard of that condition before” he said. “Are you taking anything for it?”
The woman nodded, “Pepper.”
A Lady at the Pub...
A very attractive woman goes up to the bar in a quiet rural pub.
She gestures alluringly to the bartender, who comes over immediately.
When he arrives, she seductively signals that he should bring his face closer to hers.
When he does so, she begins to gently caress his full beard.
“Are you the manager?” she asks, softly stroking his face with both hands.
“Actually, no,” the man replies. “Can you get him for me? I need to speak to him,” she says, running her hands beyond his beard and into his hair.
“I’m afraid I can’t,” breathes the bartender. “Is there anything I can do?”
“Yes, there is. I need you to give him a message,” she continues, slyly popping a couple of her fingers into his mouth and allowing him to suck them gently.
“What should I tell him?” the bartender manages to say
“Tell him,” she whispers, “there is no toilet paper or hand soap in the ladies room.”
Golf!
A man in an unhappy marriage has an attractive secretary
One day, the sexual tension between him and his secretary gets to be too much to bear, and in the middle of the work day they rush out in secret, grab a hotel, and have sex all afternoon. The sex was so good that both of them pass out. When the man wakes up, he realizes it’s 7:00 pm, and he’s late for dinner.
Realizing that his wife is going to be very angry at him and demand to know where he’s been, he decides to take his shoes and run them through the grass outside as much as he can. After his shoes get good and scuffed with grass, he drives home.
His wife, predictably, is there waiting for him, and madder than the fire of a thousand suns. His food is on the table, already cold. She is holding a frying pan, and demands to know where he was.
“Honey,” he said. “I’m not going to lie to you. I was having sex with my secretary all afternoon in a hotel. That is the unvarnished truth.”
Suspicious, his wife looks him up and down. Then she notices the grass stains on his shoes.
“You lying sack of shit,” she says. “You’ve been off playing golf, haven’t you?”
Today
Whatever you are up to today...
Stay safe and healthy.
As always...
