    Quotica for me in the next at Kempton - it owes me - and a lot of others - from LTO :)

    Re Cotton Mill Zen - would you be rushing to take PP's 33-1 against him at Chelts?

    Wide open race the next at Kempton. I quite like Triangular at the weights and Geraghty booked at 14/1...

    Looking at this last night I thought Fix The Rib could go well - no bet for me though

    only one bet left for the day, small stakes on xenophon in the 3.50 at Kemp. If he wins, I'm a few of quid up. If he places, I'm even. If he does neither, I'm a couple of quid down. Now that's what I call tension :D



    Btw how ridiculous that I lost out on the win bit of my Featherbed Lane bet because Will Kennedey hit Swincombe 10 times. The rule needs reviewing for instances when the race is that close. It's effectively cheating imho.

    Well done those on Cotton Mill...what a price after being a market mover earlier.

    Nass,is your free bet in this a separate entity or a double with Cotton Mill?

    The rules are still ridiculous. The thing is do you ban the jockey or the horse? At the end of the day the horse responded to the whip and them extra few cracks of the whip made the difference in losing and winning...

    Like with a stewards enquiry, I'd have it subjective. Swincombe's win should, in my book, have been reversed. Days obviously aren't punishment enough because Kennedy hasn't just lost count there. He's broken the rules intentionally to win and it leaves me angry. Presumably the owners had a fair amount on so the jockey will probably get a nice tip. Or maybe I need to cool down before posting again <whistle>

    I'll be very happy to see Faasel have a win here, he hasn't won for about 3 years.

    Agree George.

    I had a decent e.w. bet on Linnel at Aintree in November when it was beaten a neck by Stewarts House whose rider incurred a suspension.

    Like today,his infringement was the difference between victory and defeat...I was on the winning side today but empathise with you.
