Starting to look at Sunday's Gold Cup day card (full preview in next 36 hours or so) and whilst there is tons to get through I'm hoping I've found one to get me off to a good start. 

Race 1 Green Gateway - was originally going to stick with Better Man who a few of us backed on July Day when it finished like a train over this trip after being punted off the boards but didn't get up. Not sure that was KdM's finest hour in the saddle tbh. Green Gateway was also in the same race and has a length to find with Better Man but he he was very awkward at the start and whilst watching the replay it's the explosive finish of Better Man that takes the eye, Green Gateway has actually come from last at one stage and isn't far off. Also thinking GG is more unexposed after a just 7 runs or so. Win and also taking 4 places to cover the stake

Green Gateway at 7.14/1 to win and even money to run in the top 4 at Lucky Fish  

Not had a racing punt since July day. To try get back into swing of things -

Kannemeyer pair in 8th and 9th race today @ 7/1 win double. Both rated by stable from what I’ve heard in previous interviews. 

Have also been really quiet since July Day South where I really battled but pretty bullish about Sunday
