    Different gravy Smiffy, only question is how far he wins by.
    If looking to get value, has to be the giant bolster in the BRIGHTBET CUP CHASE.

    No doubting it's a class horse just fancy an upset. Value at Risk in the 3oclock should win well also
  • No money down cos he's giving weight to some good horses but really looking forward to seeing the ever-gutsy Cole Harden make it a real test of stamina in the Cleeve. Not convinced that the Nicholls and Pipe runners will reel him in.

    Just started betting on the horses over last few weeks, done a couple of Lucky 15's each day, seem to be breaking even so far, so that'll do for me. However going to start looking at this thread for some tips on a daily basis, so my thanks to those that post them!!

    Welcome to the fold redmidland.
    It's hard to make a long term profit on the horses.
    Small stakes for fun is the best way to go.
    The pleasure is seeing these amazing beasts perform and hopefully all return safely.

    for me: 3.35 .. Un Temps Pour Tout (cost £450,00 but can't buy me love) and a Pipe/Scu/Owner double : Dell'Arca in the last
    and Many Clouds in the 1.50

    I can't stand the owner of Gigginstown and I've never been on a Ryanair plane in my life. More to do of his manipulation of big Irish races.
  • OHHHHHHH. Big Fella you old monkey. What a shame.

    Un De Sceaux Boom
    Took the 4-1 to win today and at Cheltenham.
    Plus a bit today.
    What a horse.
  • Not much good to have a pace-maker that doesn't want to race.
  • Wow, what a racehorse! Despite being off the bridle early, I reckon he'd have got his head in front even without Jezki stumbling at the last.
    Amazing.

    Poor ride by McCoy. Strange race but you can't knock the old fella. 22 grade ones.
  • Jezski will finish in front of him at Cheltenham.

    I doubt if many were .. 100/1, even rarer than a CAFC goal ((:>)

    Had £1 ew out of blind loyalty.
    Was a dead heat. Got 70ish back.
