COOKIES IN COLOSSAL WEEKEND AND MORE TO COME: Fortune Cookies is the most talked about feature in tipping. If Daqman puts them in the list, they win. If Daqman takes them out of the list, they still win! From an 8-1 hit on Saturday that piled up profits to 655 points to the 25-1 shot that scored yesterday when the trainer thought it might be last.

BIG-RACE HAT-TRICK MAKES IT 25 FOR THE SEASON: Yes Cyr, Daqman’s still the king of the tipsters! Landing 11 winners in four days, he swept 25-15 clear of Pricewise with a big-race double across the Saturday cards in the Ascot Chase and the Haydock Park Grand National Trial, and added the day’s third feature in England, the Denman Chase, with the odds-on favourite.

SUPERNAP HEARTS TRUMPS EIGHT WINS IN THREE DAYS: Daqman has landed EIGHT winners since racing resumed, including yesterday’s supernap, Queenohearts (WON 13-8), which was his fourth winning banker out of five.

DAQMAN TODAY: 39.0 ABOUT FIRST ANTE-POST BET IN 2019: When the weights were published earlier in the week, Daqman declared: McManus Can Fly The National. He didn’t expect to see J P. jumping the 30 monster Aintree fences but, ahead of a race tomorrow, he wants to take a slice of the action about the horse called Fly that McManus owns.

COPPER-BOTTOMED BET WINS FOR DAQMAN AT 9-2: Daqman was quickly back in business on the first day’s resumption after the flu scare. His very first bet was Copper Gone West (WON 9-2), which turned over the 4-1 ON favourite in a three-horse race, the opener on the Jumps card at Musselburgh. Skilful staking created a break-even on the day, despite just the one winner.

WHERE DAQMAN LEFT OFF: SEVEN NAPS UP OUT OF NINE: Before racing in England was cancelled, Daqman was on a run of seven winning naps in nine days. His first nap back in harness is at Southwell this afternoon.

RACING RETURNS TOMORROW: BIG RACES ARE SAVED: Cheltenham four weeks today. The Grand National weights out this afternoon. And here we are betting at Toulouse? But, wait, the good news is that racing returns in England tomorrow. The BHA has lifted the lockdown, and has revised schedules so that big races lost are restored to the agenda.

MAGNIFICENT SEVEN NAPS FOR 119 POINTS PROFIT: Daqman was under orders to deliver a naps hat-trick and his seventh in nine days yesterday, boldly marked with maximum stakes. No pressure then! There was quite a bit actually as Josies Orders (WON 5-4) lost the lead over the Punchestown banks but came again. The profit on the seven is 119 points to recommended stakes, with three supernaps among them.

SIX HIT BY DAQMAN’S NAP MAKES 94 POINTS PROFIT: Daqman took his best-bets profit to 94 points in eight days with winning nap number SIX at Naas yesterday. He has another supernap at Punchestown this afternoon and bull’s-eye bets in the Grand National Trial where he takes on Pricewise, with the scores 23-15 to Daqman.

LIFE GOES ON.. AND SO DO DAQMAN’S NAPS! Daqman’s best bet went 82.70 points in profit in a week to recommended stakes when his nap, The Game Of Life (WON 13-8), scored at Dundalk last night. It was his fifth winner in the last seven naps, all odds against but only one of them to maximum stakes as a supernap.

NO ENGLISH MEETINGS UNTIL NEXT WEDNESDAY: Shut down. Nightmare. Flu-gate. Just some of the headlines as racing in England is postponed until at least next Wednesday to try to contain the equine-flu outbreak.
