25/1 eway 2nd better than a 4/1 loser. Way too competitive race to be backing 4/1 favs, no value in my opinion. If Ingleby Spirit hadn't had to be pulled wide might have been closer. Edit: Shout Toppy!!
Well done drever as well and ROTO who also highlighted the winner. Simenon could develope into a serious Cup horse this year...Most of the hard luck stories were precipitated by Thimaar backpedaling.
Topclass - great call fella I pilfered your advice but do I feel guilty? <erm> nope cos Ive backed it with foxy music and una bela cosa
Back at ya ROTO- was very pleased to see you in agreement this morning. Well done to others as well! (in a rush at work so cant go back through to see who you are) Oasis Dream siring the Chester Cup winner- it really is a unique track and event.
That Southwell race shows how difficult it is with horses on handicap ratings being well clear of the lot. The winner handled the surface well, and the second didn't. Happy that my token nod was third.
backed captain Dunne and a saver on Forest Edge at 10/1-- didn't do the R/F -- thats my remiss really....
