Just bypassing Belmont Wednesday for the moment to have a look at Northam on the horse's birthday - August 1st.
The race that interests is race 6 - yes he's back and it's now time for some reverse psychology - Diplomat Express you have no chance - a one paced battler - and you won't run a place!

Hopefully that's revved him up. Whilst Pikey's mount probably looks the one to beat - I'm going into the wallet one last time 8-|
Also thought the mare Plead The Fifth was getting home well late last week at Belmont. With a strong pace up front she's got a win in her.

It's along time until Northam Thursday but in a nutshell they've got me again - Diplomat Express & Plead The Fifth.

    Last time looked Diplomat Express just $6.50 on Tabtouch cough cough.
    Plead The Fifth $15.

    Agree Pikey will be hard to beat but one at odds is Crosley Hotshot!
    3 starts ago (albeit 3200mtrs)  came home in the last 600 as quick as Come Play With Me when 4th to 3 $440,000+ stake earners!
    Last start forget when wide the whole way with Newman on!

    Looks like Pike versus a very even bunch. Their all hopeless! Including the fave haha.

    Crossley Hotshot yep another with a hope. They'll all be going up and down on the one spot at the furlong. Noticed Ash Maley has one in the race too. A trainer in form.

    The Durrant train rolls on with the first winner of the season, Rockford Legend off the canvas at the tasty odds of 6.60..

    The fav should be way too good in the next. 

    One I reckon might run a race in the same race and is well over the odds at $91+ is Haystacks with Chris Parnham on board. Nice enough trial and listed as gelded.

    Haven't seen the race but read the results and see Diplomat ran 3rd and Plead The Fitfth 4th - surprisingly no replay up on Tabtouch for the moment....hope they weren't certainty beats!

    Something tells me no - but am keen to see the replay. Let me see - am guessing Diplomat Express one batted down the straight to run 3rd but never going to win ?

    Plead The Fifth running on late to get 4th ?
    Yep looking forward to seeing the race. Hope it wasn't a nose , by a nose , by a nose - like wise i doubt it!

    I read that rider of Thisaway requested a vet check before the race and then was passed fit, only to break down and be euthanased.

    Not a good look I thought
