Unlucky on Willie Wag Tail got reared up when going well, jockey did well to stay on

Nasty moment..not sure he would have won though Jeff and he looks a bit tricky.Thats why I backed him e/w even the price was only 13/2.

Not one to trust imo.
 
Talking through my pocket - poor ride from Spnecer on the Wagtail ... could have put the horse anywhere else and won methinks ... hey ho - onward and upward. Funny that Jim McGrath thought it was Martin Chuzzlewhit that was impeded !! even the best make mistakes ...
 
Morawij 5/2 here, surely to god the horse with the best form will finally win a 2yo group race in Britain this season.
 
Sounds good Oddy.

Very similar in Spain although varies vastly from North to South,the latter being much cheaper.

Either way there aren't pissheads anywhere to be seen...I don't think raising the alcohol unit tariff will solve the problem of the binge drinking culture in the UK.

We're getting to the stage where such behaviour is well established and tolerated into the third generation in some families.

Spot on Dexter, lived on the continent for over 14 years where publics houses/cafe bars stayed open until the last man was standing, never experienced anything on the scale of the problem we have in the UK right now. People will make sacrifices elsewhere to ensure they get their drink <ok>
 
PH has not had a great time at York, however, Odooj looks an attractive price at 10/1, of out after this one god luck to anyone who is playing for the rest of the day. For what its worth my selections for the remainder of York are as follows:

2.30 Odooj 10/1 (EW)
3.05 Side Glance 5/1
3.40 Bated Breath 5/1 & Tangerine Trees 25/1 (EW)
4.15 Reggae Star 161 (EW)
4.50 The Taj 9/1 (EW) and Indignant 16/1 (EW)

<cheers>
 
I like Heavy Metal... tough as teak that horse...


Oh, and i really do like heavy metal, though my moshing days are behind me now...:emoticon-0147-emo::emoticon-0169-dance
 
More of the same, 2yo form not worth a **** this season, in my short career, this season has been by far and a way the worst in terms of form being completely useless.

The only form that works out is Frankels <doh>

forget the rest <ok>
 
Bet365 decided to stop my stream half way through that last race <grr>, my first time using bet365, does this happen a lot? Will stick to laddies if that is the case

I think the really rubbish weather we had earlier in the year has screwed the season up quite a bit as it's difficult to tell what horses have their true ground.

It does seem to be ingrained Dex - a whole generation of "Wayne and Waynettas"
