Bored shitless at home all day, I decided to study the evening's flat meeting on the turf, in search of some possible handicappers to back, at a price.
Smaller stakes than normal for me today. Outsiders on the turf feel to me, like they have less chance than all weather runners of the similar price and profile of landing a surprise.
We shall see.

Catherines Call could spring a surprise here if finding it's feet again.
