    I bet on the grey horse. If no grey, then a jockey wearing red. Probably why I don’t win anything though.

    5.05 We're Reunited

    Looks very well handicapped and should really be there at the business end of the race.

    Sorry R&W, I've just seen this.

    Surely you did Red Robin in the 3-25.
    11-2 winner.
    I did, not because of the name but of Saunders, the trainer winning with his only runner today.
    He's well known at Bath for the odd so called unfancied runner winning at good odds.

    Non runner

    We all chipped in £5 each for a secret bet for the stag - RedRedRobin (they’re Swindon fans of course) and the nag came in - we won him £500.
    You couldn’t make it up!!
    I also bet on that same horse and won £42 which wiped out my losses so far!!

    Unbelievable Jeff!!!

    Just a tiny bet because I’m a novice but it came in (see my earlier post)
    Oh - and I did it for the name !!! <cheers>

    Any more tips? (I really haven’t a clue!!)

    No more tips from me R&W.
    All racing is a lottery but at Bath it's mostly handicaps where they seem to take winning in turn.
    I prefer the better grade racing both on the flat and over the sticks.

    Fair enough mate - I’ll go on the name of the horse and the jockeys colours - that’s what Mrs R&W swears by - and she’s had far more luck than me <laugh><laugh>
