    Its funny I was going to put Feeling Peckish up as an EW bet in the 1.20. 66/1 shot but placed in 20 of 61 chase efforts. I will still put it forward but feel even less confident after SCGDS' brilliant result.

    Swincombe Flame tomorrow, really excited to see her in a good race.

    That will do, 2nd behind the jolly.

    Looking forward to seeing Ericht out today, a horse I saw in its bumper days and I think he is a really nice prospect

    £3.70 on the Billy Goat seems generous Nass - the 220 people at Lingfield today will be wrapped up in the bars and I doubt many would have got stuck into the fav, most bets struck would have been each ways/place on the others, 11/4to be placed on the second jolly about a 10s shot in a maiden seems very friendly to me....

    Either Steven Gagan is a terrible pilot or he has fell off that on purpose . . . .

    Thoughts? Looked an utter joke. A bit like a footballer diving with no opposing player near him.

    The only doubt in my mind is if you were going to jump off one you wouldn't land like that! I'd have gone for the shoulder roll.

    It did look too bad to be true. Surely the stewards must be investigating.

    Ericht beaten <laugh> at least I don't bet at those silly odds. Seems to be regressive or slow.

    Steps To Freedom has to be looking very vulnerable as the Supreme favourite now. Form is looking weaker and weaker.

    Come on Hendo get Simonsig in there. Bolts up. <cheers> <laugh>

    You'd be upset at the SF payout if you found the right one to oppose the fav with, £7.17 ???
    Had baldy reduced the payout pot ?
