I was on French Opera when he got nutted on the line by Pigeon Island in this 3 years ago. I've backed him to pay me back at a big price today.
I'll get accused of aftertiming, but a good day today. At Fishers Cross Our Conor Bob's Worth Did them in a patent, doubles, Lucky 15 etc. £950 banked. Only Chapoturgeon (which I knew, deep down, wouldn't stay) let me down for an even better day. In the lucky last, I think Nicholls might get his second winner of the festival in Ulck Du Lin. Loves soft ground, and it looked really tough out there in the next to last race. Think it needs a guaranteed soft ground horse to stay, as Geraghty alluded to when interviewed after Bob's Worth's win. Battler needed to, so a reverse forecast of Ulck de Lin and Kumbeshwar appeals too.
Good shouts Ted... It seems like a few of us made the bookies pay today... Its all good stuff... You after timer you...
If its in the final day declarations Oddy i thought that they had to...? If he is at the start without it in then i assume he cant run...?
Don't matter red, he's jumped like a Skoda so far. Amazing it's the last race and they always go off like fecking lunatics
Well Drumshambo 4th at yesterdays price of 25-1 puts a little bit back in the Reebok rucksack, but I have to say ...... Thank **** it's all over with - and with luck I won't need to sell the house Catch you all tomorrow, good luck if playing the donkeys on the beach
fantastic day. I actually tipped up some winners and some good long priced each way horses for a change! that rounds off the jumps season in a way for me - Aintree is not really quite the same and I love getting stuck into the early season flat races. still my enthusiasm from today will carry on into the Midlands Grand National tomorrow. been great on this forum this week too. ok im off to count my winnings now
Five from six is what I call a great day at the races, let down by FAR WEST for what would have been a cracking Lucky 15 return. But one must not complain. My best festival yet
Am i being really stupid? Why is Dansili Dual running of 9-6 in the next at Dundalk, and therefore why is he 6/1?
Infront on the week but still feel annoyed as i should have won alot more. I bottled lumping on Quevega, Boston Bob falling at the last was a killer, and I can't believe I talked myself out of backing Bobs Worth. Who I'd been keen on all year, backing Silviniaco Conti instead. Still the nap At Fishers Cross went in, who I had my biggest bet of the week on at 5/2 early morning, so I shouldn't complain. Good to see that alot of you had a very successful week
