Martin

Sweet Wake, although only 5-2, will bolt up in the opener (2.00)

Accordion Etoile in the 2.35, although Wild Passion at 20s is a good outsider.
Arcalis in the Champion Hurdle at 3.15.
Brave Inca to be bridesmaid once more.

I've got a hunch that Brave Inca's going to do it... now then .. off to BetFair ;)

I looked at Wild Passion in the 2.35 but decided against it - I also looked at and may have a little bit on Irish Hussar in the 4.00 if I can get more than 33/1 against it each way just as a rabbit.

2pm Foreman
4pm Bob The Builder.

Where's the bookies scourge Angelus when you need him...on second thoughts I want to win some money.

Well thats the first one in, Sublimity finished 4th and just missed out each way, Sweet Wake - the favourite, got hammered on the hill. Foreman - no idea where that was :)

So what ever happens to the rest I'm in profit.

Groan - my banker had no legs!

That was a storming finish! This might just turn out to be a decent meeting after all :)


(Not sure about those horse adverts though. I suspect I'll be throwing stuff at the monitor after day 1 :hihi:)

I thought the distance might have been a bit short but the struggle on the hill helped no end - the adverts are shocking :)

Foreman quite obviously came nowhere in the 2.00 - he is running in the 2.35!

I was going to say Foremans just finished 3rd in the next race :)

oh well - the Inca next :)

Arcalis my last hope. Certainly not that hopeful now!

Place your bets for the Champion Hurdle!

Brave Inca. £50 W
Covered with Hardy Eustace £20 EW :)

I said I was stopping putting money on horses unless I'm there ! :shakes:

I may have egg on my face soon, but for me Brave Inca is not a Champion.
Hardy, but not enough class.
That said, its a weak race this year and Hardy Eustace is struggling for form.

I have gone for Arcalis, but after his last race my hopes faded, when he was pulled up.

Brave Inca - and a bit e/w on Asian Maze

well what a race - all three in it to the line

Brave Inca. £50 W
Covered with Hardy Eustace £20 EW :)


I thank you! :D

I am eating my egg.

Korelo. Although I suspect no one is listening to me anymore!

Moulin Riche if you can find the odds.

Korelo is shortening fast though. Alderburn is pushing out so if you're going that way hang on.

Edit: Moulin Riche is improving now... might have a dibble.

Unlucky Internet Owl!

In fact you have had two winners, so its not that unlucky...

not that unlucky - Irish Hussar popped up at 66/1 third with a small amount each way. Two winners, a second (would be nicer as a winner) and a place 66/1 which will pay a bit. I'm not greedy - I'm playing with their money the rest of the week :) Had the other one not fallen it would have been in the shakeup too no doubt.

I thank you! :D

nice one mate. Did you get much of a price around Inca - it was 2/1 this am early doors and was never going to be much better at sp.

7/4 so a bit better but not much :) 4/1 on the covering bet :D

I'm glad I only had a fiver on Moulin Riche though - what a lousy race for him.

Well Day 2 approaches and its a bit damp :)

Nothing takes my fancy in the QM to be honest. It should dry up a bit though.

I was looking at Paddy the Piper in the 4.00 - might be worth a little snip each way ;) The QMC is a nightmare race, nothing immediately comes to mind. Might have to get a morning paper today

Yea he might do, but I have rules for always winning internetowl :D.

Rule 1: Only bet if on the course. (that's up in smoke ;))

Rule 2: Only bet if you are 75% sure it's a winner. (hard to do this year with so many horses that are either injured or dead!)

Rule 3: Only bet if you can cover the bet (that way the wife gets to collect winnings from her 'little place/ EW bet' from the Tote window each race - good family politics ;))

Rule 4: Avoid anything resembling a cavalry charge. (That includes EVERY final race of the day. :))

Rule 5 Walk away with more money in your pocket than you arrived with after paying for the day out (Sounds good when you say it :hihi: )

No.1 - Geography and kids at school rule out that.
No.2 - No such thing, no point having a bet if you don't think it will win
No.3 - Fully agree
No.4 - I love a cavalry charge so got to disagree. The fun is picking your way through the 'handicap' and working out which horses are better off due to it.
No. 5 - The ideal situation, I've got enough from yesterday to pay for a little punt for the rest of the meeting (3 days and still have my original stake so I'm quite happy, gambling with their money)
No. 6 - Consider the money staked as gone and worry not about it - if you're worrying about the cash being bet, you shouldn't be doing it :)
No. 7 - Share your winnings with the family, my wife loves it when I come home with a bundle for her and the bin-lid.

morning chaps, any tips for today. Ive just back Darkness each way in the 2.35

later this morning - I will post my selections as do others :)

Today Matthew I will be mostly selecting...

2.00 Mr Nosie
2.35 Commercial Flyer
3.15 Central House
4.00 Paddy the Piper (E/W)

Well I agree with two of yours:

2:00 Denman - cant see past him
2.35 Commercial Flyer
3.15 Have gone for Central House, but would love it if Moscow flyer won

Denman will probably win - but the odds will be shocking 5/4 at best and hardly worth a bet unless you're lumping it on, and thats not a great idea. Moscow Flyer is too old and is whay out of form. I honestly hope he gets round ok

Paddy the piper is 40/1 nice for the each way

Well thats another 'red' hot horse down the pan - Denman just lacking when it came to the crunch. Watching it on TV they were saying the bookies have had a right result in that getting turned over. B'stards :)

Well after yesterday's farce

2.00 Reveillez
2.35 Impek
3.15 Mighty Man
4.00 Billyvodden

nice and safe.

Heartborken after yeaterday. Received a text from a pal on Monday, advising me to back "Skys The Limit" yesterday, as his old man had recd
"news from Ireland"
I ignored it - it won at 11-1!
I have a soft spot for Barracouda, and whilst he may be a bit too long in the tooth now, have to back him as will never forgive myself if he wins.
And yeah, I realise I am letting heart rule head!

another one scraped home at 9/2 - more profit :)
