Are all these types of races right?

Today was a confusing day of racing, with meetings on both codes. Newton Abbot had a handicap hunter chase, the first I have seen to be run under rules. How common are they? In my view, seen as Rules racing has plenty of hunter chases run from January/February time through till the big Stratford meeting in about 2 weeks time, maybe a cash injection into those races rather than more of them would be more appropriate. Your views please.
Tomorrow is a scheduler's nightmare, Southwell and Nottingham starting 10 minutes apart. My selections are: Chaussini (2.50 Brighton), Integria (4.20 Brighton), Now What (7.30 Kempton), Bahia Emerald (2.00 Nottingham), Andorn (3.30 Nottingham), Sumner E/W (2.40 Southwell), Sky Calling - NAP (4.40 Southwell), Seren Rouge (5.10 Southwell), Malibu Sun (6.40 Towcester), Not So Sure Dick (7.40 Towcester).

Good Luck

Was 40 days harsh?

Seeing this week that Peterjon Carberry got a 40 day ban for mistaking the winning post at Uttoxeter, leading him to drop his hands. I feel about 25 would be a fairer punishment. If you have any views, please leave a comment at the bottom of the page. To see it, go on Racingpost.com and click on Racing Post Television on the Media Centre, scroll down the list to about 1/3 of the way and it is called "Uttoxeter Shocker".
The French Guineas is tomorrow's feature.
My selections are: POZYC - NAP (3.25 Kilarney), Zoowraa (2.08 Longchamp), Private Story E/W (2.00 Market Rasen), Chorizo (3.30 Market Rasen), Hail Caesar (4.00 Market Rasen), Kerrys Requiem (3.10 Ripon), Space War (3.40 Ripon), Baybshambles (5.10 Ripon), Carter (2.20 Stratford), Marley Roca (3.20 Stratford) and The Merry Giant (3.50 Stratford)

Good Luck

Gold to finally write a winning Story

Tomorrow offers Beverley, Sedgefield, Southwell, Warwick and Yarmouth.
Selections are:  Al Andalyya (5.00 Beverley), Rain Stops Play (6.15 Sedgefield), Master Builder E/W (8.45 Sedgefield) , NAP-Three White Socks (5.30 Southwell), Gold Story (8.30 Southwell),  Anoint (4.40 Warwick), Iguacu (5.40 Warwick), Mashatu (3.20 Yarmouth), Sail Home (4.50 Yarmouth), Tobernea (5.20 Yarmouth).
