Cheers chaps, 2nd for the 3rd year running but we were well behind the winner so no complaints (from me!). Delighted to find 3 of the first 6, that the 2 Welsh boys did themselves justice and, especially, that Swing Bill justified my model's rating (more or less) - the lone voice of support in the wilderness. Will give a more detailed review later.
How do you feel about the ride on Cappa Bleu? He used to do it on state of play too, leave it well too late when the horse is clearly full of running still
Yeahhhh 3pts. Great stuff. I know he does it year after year but I think Moloney does well to get them into a rhythm early. Don't know if he got into trouble this time (which is always the danger) but you want the jock to ride in the style most suiting the horse. He would have won if there hadn't been a lightly-weighted long-shot bolting up. No complaints from me but I'd like to review the race in more detail when I get the chance.
Blimey, the team done good, even "slow as a hearse" Tarquinius (will have to work out the time-adjusted ground for the new distance but seemed to the naked eye not to be as fast as last year - thankfully).

Will take some figuring out where the winner came from (stats-wise) but pretty happy with the general workings of the model.
Many thanks to all you chaps (and ladies if applicable) for your confidence. Sorry we didn't hit the big one but delighted that most everyone made a profit to some degree.

So far as I'm concerned Peanuts, making a profit is what it's all about .. cheers
