    Time for an evening yankee

    Bath
    perfect Cracker 2-1
    Interior Minster 11-4
    Goodwood
    7.45 Athenian 9-4
    8.45 Magic of Reality 13-8

    Yankee & extra four fold for luck at best odds,
    Quietly confident which usually means not one bugger will place.

    Called a false start at Bath for no reason that I can see, the stall did not appear to open early but was pushed at the same time it opened head first by the horse. shocking decision it will have really messed up the horses.

    Rule four for no reason now.

    Pigeon Creek very short at Tramore for a very tight track and a jockey that has only won 1 chase from 79 digs (unseated off this a couple of runs ago as well)..anyone taking the 2's?

    Nothing else looks very reliable either mind you.

    I would not give up on that horse Princess, it can definitely win races.

    It was a crazy ride today for two reasons in my opinion. Firstly the horse was always going to be doing just a little too much in front and have little left, secondly from his previous runs this horse needs teaching to race, and so needed cover and then be asked to race and go past at the appropriate time. Were he to have got beat today in this way at least it would have been another step in his education. Today served no purpose as unlikely to win with these tactics and will be no wiser next time.

    I wish. They wanted rather a lot of money for it. I am convinced it will win a few races though.
    She is a bit of a shrewdie Jo and picked up a nice sort at the recent Brightwell sale for £5K which as we know is peanuts in racing terms. A p2p winner and bet she wins some races with it!

    Well sounds like she's done quite well there. One win and they can probably sell it off for a nice profit as well.
