Will you chip in your first $5 now?
The good news is that we just announced a new campaign to DEMAND the Senate fully fund vote-by-mail this November. But the bad news is that Supreme Court conservatives and Trump Republicans are working hand in hand to suppress the vote:
    ➔ Trump and Attorney General Bill Barr are falsely claiming that voting by mail is rife with fraud.
    ➔ Republican-controlled states like Georgia and Texas are following their lead and working to block voting access.
    ➔ And the Supreme Court has backed them up in Wisconsin, Alabama, and Florida!
With only three-and-a-half months left until Election Day, we're running out of time to make a difference on voter suppression and gerrymandering. Will you take advantage of our MATCH EXTENSION now?

Brazil faces an uncertain outlook marked by the COVID crisis and the lack of fiscal space to continue to expand government spending and lowering taxes to support the economy. Those policies enacted earlier in 2020 protected income more than employment and most analysts presume that income support will diminish in 2021. Will employment recover enough before then to sustain growth in consumption? If not, will exports and investment pick up the slack? Even if investment comes first from a rebuilding of inventories, would it fuel improved confidence? Is this return preconditioned on progress with structural reforms? Is the tax reform just sent to Congress sufficient to allay naysayers on reform? To what extent does the return of confidence depend more on the likely turbulent political outlook than on stimulus policies? And how will macroeconomic management proceed? How will the government adhere to the budget ceiling given spending pressures on an administration that has problems in Congress? To what extent can monetary policy substitute for fiscal stimulus? Are we close to an effective interest rate lower bound where lower rates become counterproductive given ensuing financial and exchange rate instability? These are some of the questions raised by investors with no easy answers. Our distinguished panel will help clarify the current context and outline possible answers.

National Democratic Redistricting Committee


The presidential election this year will be one of the most consequential of our lifetimes. There’s no question Democrats must win.

But if we learned anything from the rampant map manipulation that took place in 2011 after massive losses for Democrats in 2010, it’s that we can’t get distracted from the incredibly important races taking place down the ballot. Will you help the NDRC elect Democrats at the state and local levels?

See, no matter who wins the White House this year, if we can’t get Democrats into office and at the table for redistricting, Republicans will manipulate the maps for another decade. That will mean another ten years of extreme Republican decision-making on all the issues we care about, including racial justice, health care, climate change, and many more.

I’m not saying the presidential race isn’t important -- of course it is! But the NDRC is focusing on the strategic state-level races that will make all the difference for a fair redistricting. And while it takes billions of dollars to win the presidency, the outcome of these small races will be determined by grassroots donations of $100, $50, even $5.

We’ve already proven the NDRC can tip the scales for down-ballot Democrats in 2017, 2018, and 2019. But we must dig deep to finish the job in 2020.

We’ve already endorsed 169 candidates nationwide and invested in nine 2020 target states thanks to this community. But with Republicans still in control of redistricting in key states like Ohio, North Carolina, and Wisconsin, we have to do more.

So Sula: Will you help ensure that Democrats are able to fight for a fair redistricting next year by making a donation now?

Please have a read through the details in our new bargain purchases that we expect to win this year.
 
We bought two cracking new horses at the July Newmarket Sales last Friday.
It turns out that Can't Stop Now was an 85,000 Gns yearling, should have been 2nd at Leicester off level weights with a horse now rated 97. That was also his final run for a handicap mark and they smashed him hard on his handicap debut with a hood on 1st time. Adam Kirby sat way too far back and clearly these tactics meant he stayed on well but had too much to do. I think he would have won his 2nd last race at Kempton if he had stalked the field and his 2nd that day has worked out well with the 3rd winning twice since and the winner going in again. After would bought these cracking horses on Friday our mare Flood Defence won the last race at Musselbugh.
 
Shine On Brendan and Can't Stop Now are fantastic purchases and the plan is to win with Shine On Brendan on the flat and win with Can't Stop Now over hurdles this year. 

Chris Gordon was  a massive help at the July sales and he's very happy with his purchase Can't Stop Now.  Chris thinks he is the type to do well in juvenile hurdles and he also has bundles of improvement to come on the flat. We at Let's Be Lucky are very happy to have purchased a very nice horse for Chris Gordon and I hope you get behind him because Chris is not that far from Cheltenham and the other big jump tracks in the South.

We are very pleased to buy Rebecca Bastiman Shine On Brendan and if you look at his first 4 starts, they were well above average. He's an ideal replacement for Logi that will be sold in October. I enjoy working with Rebecca and one has to remember that we bet 2 Dark Horse winners from just 4 bets from the Bastiman stable at 9/2 from 11/1 and 7/1 SP in the last 3 years.
 
OUR NEXT DARK HORSE BET RUNS NEXT WEEK!


Please consider getting involved in our new purchases. We expected to get bargains at the sales but never in our wildest dreams did we expect to get two smashing young 3 years old geldings rated in the 70's. Both horses are fit and well and should be winning this year.

We put in the hard work studying potential LBL horses for the July sales at Tattersals in Newmarket. We had a strong list of horses who ticked all the boxes and passed all checks by our trainers. The tricky part is then trying to buy these horses within budget, in what is always a very strong market! We are delighted to report that got lucky on the day and managed to secure two of our main targets comfortably within budget...
 
 
Can't  Stop Now is a smashing 73 rated 3 year old gelding by  Starspangledbanner (AUS) he has solid maiden and handicap form on the  grass and sand and stays well, goes with cut in the ground and does not  have many miles on the clock. He has a peak rating of 74 and could be  anything. 

A big thanks to Chris Gordon for buying us this very exciting young horse to go juvenile  hurdling. We are delighted to have bought him such a great prospect.  Can't Stop Now has a massive engine and we can't wait to see him  hurdling this winter with a trainer that Let's Be Lucky rate highly.

Shine  On Brendan is a 3 year old gelded son of Society Rock that was very  unlucky not to win his maiden and handicap on the sand. He's very well  handicapped off 71 (was 75) and is expected to improve a lot for  changing stables. Some of his maiden form is very classy and he matched  strides and went close to beating horses now rated in the 80's and late  90's. He really could be anything. 

We  did not think we had a chance of buying this fellow and a big thanks to  Rebecca Bastiman (his new trainer) for going to the sales and securing  his purchase. We are very excited about Shine On Brendan and expect him  to be a top class 7 furlong handicapper.
