    Windsor Park looked a different class. His jumping was absolutely spot on. Had a little e/w double on him and Southfield Theatre in the next so fingers crossed.

    Southfields theatre was the winner of that mate three shite jumps out of last four ruined him, was lucky to stay up when he belly flopped one of them.

    2 races 2 seconds, usual Cheltenham crap from me, and don't mention do them e/w cause when I do they plod in 4th

    Nicholls cheating the handicapper there pulled him out a race at fontwell a few weeks ago to stop him seeing him and penalising him

    Ready to be picked apart by the experts like smiffy boy :wink:

    Well done.
    The problem with this bet is that unless you get 3/4 winners is hard to get a profit.
    But just need another to come in with that 10-1 winner.

    Livelovelaugh in the bumper is a suitable conclusion for my lamentable performance today.

    Think all the major bookies were 5 places and corals 6 for that race.
    Got 20/1 on VDT this morning.

    Outlander.........actually had Nicholas Canyon in my Super Heinz and e/w accumulator so the dream is still alive with a place!
    Don Poli
    Aux Ptits Soin
    Dodging Bullets
    Sire Collonges
    Arabian Revolution
    Pylonthepressure.......damn non-runner! Knackered my Super Heinz!

    Well done.

    Abs; gutted Pylonthepressure is a non-runner. Still a hope for a sizeable win though if 2 more can romp home. Also considered Windsor Park this morning and would be sweating now if that had given me 3-3.

    I just need Sire De Gurgy to get a place for a decent £2.5 e/w place 4 fold.

    I can guarantee you it will come fourth.

    I hope so. I know nothing about horse racing so was drawn toward the favourites (or those just outside).

    yess!!! 3 winners and a place so far today! Dodging bullets looked good, would have won that comfortably if he hadn't gone through the 2nd last.

    I hope so. I know nothing about horse racing so was drawn toward the favourites (or those just outside).
    I refreshed my balance after the dodging bullets win and it still says £3.49 but it is giving me the option of cashing out for £56 so means I must've won something right?

    I'm confused by this little foray into the horse racing world..........
