1.30 - Stage Star e/w at the prices 2.10 - L'Homme Presse win, Capodanno place 2.50 - *gestures vaguely* but I like Ganapathi (Mullins likes this race); Indigo Breeze; and Tronador at the prices 3.30 - Shishkin. Funambule Sivola for a place 4.10 - Delta Work in the weather conditions. Get on before he gets even shorter. Diesel D'Allier great EW shout given he's a C&D specialist 4.50 - Embittered and Sky Pirate 5.30 - American Mike over Facile Vega; I think even at 20s Joyeux Machin is overpriced - EW shout
4 places for Capodanno with some books; L'HP wins. Noice
Got enough of an interest, one way or another, in Delta Work's run in the XC but in the conditions I'm adding Enda Bolger's 2 outsiders e/w: Midnight Maestro at 33/1 & Shady Operator (related to Corbiere) at 12/1
Cobden has come back and reported the ground as heavy. Nicholls has the raging hump about the course watering and probably rightly so. We might have to prepare ourselves for a few big priced horses placing or even winning this afternoon.
I assume the clerk of the course will resign at the end of the meeting over his decision to water the ground yesterday evening with the rain forecast for today. Fucking moronic.
Had Constitution Hill (4/1), Edwardstone (10/1) and Honeysuckle (4/5) in an ante post multiple with Shishkin (7/4). Spent the last month concerned about the form of the Henderson horses but the last few days showed that they were running OK. Cannot believe that it was just the ground that caused Shishkin to run so badly though because he wasn't travelling from the off.
Great, great horse the one and only Tiger. If ever a 2nd place deserved extolling, it was this today. Have a long and happy retirement Tiger. SUPERSTAR.
1:30 Journey With Me / Stage Star … both e/w 2:10 Bravemansgame 2:50 Indigo Breeze / Ashdale Bob … both e/w 3:30 Envoi Allen (small e/w … Shishkin should win easily)
Had Delta Work so nice way to build on a couple of places above…
4:50 Embittered / Elixir De Nuts / Il Ridoto all e/w 5:30 Redemption Day / Jamess Gate both e/w

Had a big cashout on PP with 2 hurdles to go.
Fucking moronic.
Is that rain or the bookies tears of joy that I can see out my window ?
