Will You Add? - A Preview of May's UK Horse Racing
UNINSURED drivers aren’t just a danger to your life and vehicle – they can cause serious damage to your wallet, too.That's according to recent findings from the Association of British Insurers, who claim that around a million drivers don't have insurance. What's more, as well as costing us lives, damage to vehicles and untold distress, these uninsured drivers are also costing us somewhere in the region of ?40 per year on top of our insurance premiums.While fully comprehensive insurance cover will get your vehicle repaired in the event of an accident caused by an uninsured driver, those repairs don't come without their costs. If you haven't paid to protect your no claims bonus, for example, you'll lose it (meaning a higher insurance premium next year), and you'll still be liable to the pay the excess on your policy.Pursuing a compensation claim th
Flat racing’s domestic caravan rolls on to York for their three-day Dante meeting and the potential Oaks fillies will run in the Musidora Stakes on May 17, the meeting’s opening salvo which is now a Wednesday on account of the fixture moving forward by a single day.

I was watching an MTV interview one day. The reporter was interviewing the popular singer Kid Rock on how he went from being a no-name singer to a world-renown music icon. Now normally, I don’t pay attention to what pop icons say because it’s usually nothing worth digesting, but something that Kid Rock said in this interview really got me thinking.“How did you go from being basically a nobody on public access television to the huge success you are today?” The reporter asked.“Simple. I pretended I was big shit. I always thought of myself as big shit. And you know what—that’s exactly what I became.” Rock replied (with obvious bleeps included).At first I thought this comment was vulgar and arrogant and in some ways it was, but when you really think about it, Kid Rock was telling all of us his recipe for success—A recipe that any one of us can
In recent years the 2,000 Guineas has been the personal preserve of the Flat’s big battalions with Sir Michael Stoute, Saeed Bin Suroor and Aidan O’Brien dominating the race year after year with a succession of expensive blue-bloods.
This time around it’s the tight-lipped O’Brien who seems to hold all the aces courtesy of the aforementioned George Washington, a brilliant, if at times temperamental, colt who swept all before him as a juvenile and sets out this season to prove he’s not just a two-year-old wonder but can mix it with the best and come out on top as a three-year-old.
Only Barry Hills and Dermot Weld have broken the big boys’ monopoly of the 2,000 and this year it’s Marcus Tregoning who has been cast in the role of party-pooper as he bids interrupt the top guns by training Sir Percy to land the opening Classic. Regarded as the best horse that he’s ever trained by his astute handler, last season’s Dewhurst winner is sure to go close in a race that will be run to suit his talents.
On the same day Newmarket stages the Palace House Stakes, a Group 3 for up-and-coming sprinters and the fast-improving Reverence well be an intresting runner while over at Haydock, the jumps stages a last hurrah with the valuable William Hill Swinton Handicap Hurdle, and Philip Hobbs could hold a strong hand here courtesy of Wellbeing and Motorway, two progressive and late-blossoming timber-toppers.
On Sunday May 7, it’s the fillies’ turn to strut their stuff in the 1,000 Guineas where Gololphin’s Silca’s Sister, Ballydoyle’s Rumplestiltskin and Race For the Stars will do battle with John Gosden’s Nanina for the fillies’ Blue Riband. On the same day Breeders’ Cup hero Shirocco is likely to come up against Sir Michael Stoute’s late-developer Hard Top and the evergreen John Porter winner, Mubtaker, in the Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket. Spring gallop s reports have singled out the Stoute horse for top honours.
Chester’s prestigious three-day meeting follows hot on the heels of Newmarket and the Derby hopefuls will be on show in the MBNA Europe Bank Chester Vase (May 11), with the fillies taking centre stage in the Weatherbys Bank Cheshire Oaks on May 10. Barry Hills has a superb record on this turning track and any horse he runs in the previous two races will be worth close inspection.
On Wednesday May 10 the totesport Chester Cup is the meeting’s big betting race and recent Newmarket winner Mikao set down an early marker for this big staying prize. Four-year-olds often run well here and trainer Barry Hills boasts an excellent record. Friday, May 12, closes the Chester meeting and the feature race for the older horses is the Blue Square Ormonde Stakes landed last year by Day Flight.
The run of Classic trials continues at Lingfield on May 13 with the Letheby and Christopher Derby Trial and the totesport.com Oaks Trials respectively for the real things at Epsom the following month. It isn’t just the Classic colts and fillies that are in the firing-line at Lingfield because the Surrey course also stages the totesport Victoria Cup, a closely fought and always influential 7f handicap that frequently throws up a Royal Ascot winner or two.
Over in France the following day, May 14, the European Flat season raises the volume with the Poule de’Essai des Poulains (French 2,000 Guineas) and the Poulai d’Essai des Pouliches (French 1,000 Guineas) on the same card at Longchamp. Ballydoyle and Godolphin have begun to target these two important races in recent seasons and their runners should be respected, but Criquette Head-Maarek’s Quiet Royale will be fancied for the ‘Pouliches’ after a satisfactory spin in second at Longchmap the other day.

As the protests continue over the immigration situation, it appears very clear that those in the streets want no border security. Basically, anyone who wants to come to America should come. That appears to be the logic. Of course, that would be the end of America if such an insane policy were to take place.The waving of Mexican flags is the true nature of those protesting. A sort of "we want it back" mentality has taken root thanks to years of propaganda from politicians, academia and television. Thus, the concept of coming to America in an orderly fashion is no longer an idea tolerated. Those who want to "bum rush" this nation are given the green-light to do so.The huge amount of illegals at the protests from city to city showed an arrogance and a refusal to deal with the law. Then again, years of back-turning has led to this.Those running corp

Have you ever confided to a friend or family member about your ambitions or desires only to have them shoot you down in flames? It hurts when it happens doesn't it? After all, these are the people you care about and are suppose to care about and support you in the pursuit of your dreams, desires and ambitions no matter what. Right?It happens and don't think you're the only one it happens to. But there's a solution and the solution is to run. Run the other way and don't look back. You don't need that negativity in your life. You deserve better and you know it. That might sound a bit harsh but it's not. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with the people you currently surround yourself with. It's just that to get to the next level in your life, whatever that may be, you need to surround yourself with like minded people that are already at the level where

Network Marketing Motivation.MLM Motivation.Two very misunderstood concepts. The average network marketer today wants to keep their team motivated and FIRED UP! That is normal, as you always want them to be mentally and psychologically elevated for Success in Network Marketing.But here is the challenge:INFERNO SecretYou CANNOT motivate anyone to Success.They must motivate themselves. We waste so much time, even a lot of mlm trainers that teach motivation, trying to get the team and people pumped up, juiced up, jammed up, onFire and motivated. That may happen in the moment from the excitement, but it quickly fades.Keeping your team motivated and ignited simply is not going to happen unless you follow the Rules of Reality in MLM Motivation. These rules are based in reality, not hype, and honesty, not empty enthusiasm.the totesport Chester Cup is the meeting’s big betting race and recent Newmarket winner Mikao set down an early marker for this big staying prize.

Debt consolidation loan is a service one would need not primarily for financial assistance but for managing finance. Loans which may be secured or unsecured are meant to give temporary financial liquidity to overcome a need with an intention to return the amount borrowed along with interest.Debt could also be various pending payments for your mobiles, electricity bills, installments, or other dues. Making payments to different sources at varied interest rates is a hassle. There are finance companies which will meet your dues at various occasions for you! In return you can pay them a consolidated amount at a fixed interest rate.Debt consolidation services, more often than not, are a smart way to handle your debts and dues. Apart from being a more organized way to handle your loan payments and an easy interest rate, debt consolidation servic

On May 18 the Derby hopefuls will run in the Dante Stakes and it’s worth recalling that in recent times, North Light and Motivator, the last two winners of this race, have gone on to glory at Epsom in just over three weeks’ time, while looking a little further back in the race’s illustrious history, it’s worth noting that Shahrastani, Reference point, Erhaab and Benny The Dip all went on from the Dante to Derby success.
This mile and a quarter Group 2 contest has clearly become a key Classic trial in recent seasons and mustn’t be missed. There’s sure to be a host of top-class performers in contention on the Knavesmire and Sir Michael Stoute has the best contemporary Dante record with two winners and three placed horses.
On the same day as the Dante keep a close eye upon the outcome of the Hambleton Stakes, a valuable mile handicap that has a habit of throwing up the winner of the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot the following month especially if the Hambleton winner is trained by Sir Michael Stoute.
The final day of the Dante meeting sees the stayers take centre stage in the Yorkshire Cup, a useful pointer to the rest of the campaign’s leading staying races. Alan Swinbank’s stable star Collier Hill, a winner of the Irish St Leger last season, is a likely runner and may well be capable of surprising more fancied horses.
On May 20 it’s the turn of the season’s crack milers to unleash their firepower in the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury and this has been a good race for Saeed Bin Suroor and the boys in blue in recent seasons, and it would be no surprise to see them land this Group1 event with Proclamation, who is surely heading for the top after joining Godolphin on the back of a brilliant three-year-old season.
In France the following day Longchamp’s Prix d’Ispahan always draws the top mile and mile and a quarter horses and this a race that mustn’t be missed as a key pointer to some of the season’s top races over this classic ten furlongs.
The month of May rounds off with the Irish 2,000 Guineas on May 27 followed by the Irish 1,000 Guineas on the following day. Both these valuable races tend to go to horses that have raced in the equivalent events at Newmarket and inevitably British trainers hold an excellent record in both races.
Finally, Sandown’s two-day fixture at the very end of the month is always informative with the Henry 11 Stakes for top-notch staying horses on May 29 followed on May 30 by the Temple Stakes for sprinters over the minimum trip and the Group 3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes in which trainer Sir Michael Stoute boats a useful record. Any runner from his yard should be noted carefully.
