Super Kid or Belvedere for me. Paddy Power doing their ten pound version on the 3.05 at Haydock. Communique is my selection in that one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Minertaur Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Gutted I only had a tenner in my account and didn't see this until just before the race started! I chose a non runner and didn't realise until I went to watch the race [emoji38] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Had Mister Belverdere 125 back plus tenner on the Sky Bet treble. Not bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Couple of non-runners make this a five horse race. I plumped for Mark Johnson’s The Trader last night at 11/2 but there’s a 25p R4 due to the withdrawals. Current odds 4/1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Dutch Treat for me at 8/1. P.S. Sounds like a deviant sexual practice. Edited August 18, 2018 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 No point doing a write up for this today. As with last weeks pull outs its becoming a bit of a farce this. I don’t mind the rule if it works when there is late withdrawals and markets suffer but today people will potentially lose money as a result. Example being Big Ian 80/1 the now £10 gets a good return £810 Last night it was 66/1 before any withdrawals so its drifted regardless yet if you had bet it last night it was costing you 25p to the pound returning £610. Folk can say but thats the rule but its again to suit the bookies. Ladbrokes did it before and got caught. Deliberately shortening the price of likely non-runners to suit themselves in the Rule 4. Pish. Anyway hoping for some GOOD FORTUNE 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Just noticed they're offering 4 places at York at 155. No time for research, gone for Spoof at 40/1. P.S. Shite. Was mulling between El Astronauti who won and Culturati that came 4th and my choice Spoof that came 5th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I’m off down to York on Friday for the racing. Brilliant course. A few winners would be nice too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Golden God Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Had El Astronaute today, both in a single and a double with Latrobe. Had another double with Cross Counter and Roaring Lion. Swap around my doubles and I'd have been laughing. Afaak my only bet for tomorrow so far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond_for_life Posted August 22, 2018 Author Share Posted August 22, 2018 We kick off Thursday with a group 2 fillies race over 6f. Betting would suggest this is a shootout between Angels Hideaway and Fairyland. The former has a touch more experience but Dettori received a ban the last time he rode this horse. Could that suggest some vulnerability? The excellent Ryan Moore is the jockey of Fairyland and this horse has shown good ability in only 3 starts. Both these horses have improved since their meeting at Ascot back in June. I would give the slight edge to Angels Hideaway based on its group 3 win. At a price however I am taking a punt on FLAWLESS JEWEL. She ran incredibly well on debut when just pipped for the win. She then went on to win her second start by 16 lengths against an average field. A bit of a gamble as this horse could be all or nothing but at 9/1 it gets my vote. Firelight and Little Kim have two wins each and should prove best of the rest. 1st. Flawless Jewel 2nd. Angels Hideaway 3rd. Fairyland 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Flawless Jewel it it is. If Afaak wins tomorrow I'm going to hunt The Golden God down and kill him. Might risk a wee bet first though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Nothing on this. Place on 3rd in the next and had a fiver (ew) on Poet's Society at 22/1. Well done Mark Johnson on his record win 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
