    Right I need Call The Cops to win the bumper at Southwell to just about double my stake on the Canadian. Been plenty of money for Barney Rubble today which I cannot understand, a fairly moderate 4th on debut. Hopefully Nico's 5lbs will sway things in Mr Henderson's favour.

    ROTO on the assumption that the going tomorrow at York is good-soft, how confident would you be on your old friend Maarek? One of the reasons I don't like the flat is draw bias and are you concerned by his low draw?

    Sorry Ron, I thought you had highlighted a quote from someone.

    Badger, LOL!!

    Woolcombe, I agree a winner is a winner regardless of price bud. The point I'm trying to make is that those are his general price range but he has a terrible strike rate so surely can't be making a profit if he primarily bets at those prices. Striking similarities between his selections and the Oddschecker verdict also.

    I've always thought there is a draw bias towards the low drawn numbers at York when its soft. Slightly more pace in the high drawn numbers but between Bogart and Tickled Pink he should be fine. If the predicted rain comes (already started) then it could be very testing tomorrow which he'll relish.

    Cheers ROTO <ok> Maarek is my second decent flat wager struck this season after Dawn Approach. Lets hope for the same outcome! By the way, BET365 are paying 1/4 odds 1.2.3.4 which is what I've done. Currently 6/1.

    A) I don't use Oddschecker.
    B) I put up three placed horses just a couple of days ago at odds of 7/1, 9/1 (10/1 BOG) and 16/1.
    C) My biggest bets this year have been Sprinter, Simonsig, Quevega twice and the Hurricane at Cheltenham. Dawn Approach. Make Your Mark placing twice each way at 20/1 and 11/1. Connectivity three times placing twice at 20/1 and winning at 5/2.
    D) Apparently my strike rate is poor but I've had three winners in the last 36 hours from 6 bets. That's a 50% strike rate. Small sample but as you were trying to say my week just gone was poor (which included landing the Dawn Approach gamble which was my second biggest win of the year) and using that as a basis when you were clearly almost farcically inaccurate allows me to use that sample.
    E) I've been putting up big priced winners throughout my time on here under both this username and my past one.
    F) I am not a level stakes punter. Never have claimed to be. My usual bet is £25 each way or £100 win. When I go for something I bet substantially more. Those bets are almost exclusively at the biggest meetings/races where you can safely assume that day is the target.
    G) I keep a profit and loss report that tells me exactly what my turnover has been. A very useful tool that everyone should keep.
    H) a lot of people seem to enjoy the 'TAKE IT TO THE BANK' joke. You have no sense of humor so don't. That's certainly your own problem and something I will not be stopping.
    I) it's common knowledge amongst the regulars why I'm the Champ. You would know if you were not an also ran but as you are you probably weren't around at the time I was anointed.

    There's not really much more I can say. You call me a liar but don't have any proof at all that would substantiate such claims. The facts support me. It's a dangerous road to tread.

    AND YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK

    I've been in Manchester all night but getting home it's definitely been raining throughout. Very wet. More expected. Surely he'll get his ground and if he does he'll win ROTO.
