Why do Worcester need 8, I say 8, races today?!? Answers on a postcard please to the usual address. This is one of those days that you only bet if you are either ‘in the know’ or 'in need of a straightjacket’. I’ll leave you to decide who fits into which category.

Meanwhile, I see that if your birthday is 22 July then you get free entry into Sandown Park this eve. Anyone qualify?!?

What proof do you need? How bout just wearing a bday badge will then count :D
 
Is it as easy as getting free birthday cake and drinks in a restaurant?

Straight jacket for me then lol
Took a small patent last night on crannaghmore boy, sovereign spirit and rosie probert odds look bad now though hope I did the right thing getting on early
 
I keep looking at the first at worcs there is a horse that has been good to me over the years has a 33% plus place rate has a near 50% place rate at the track has a jockey who won on his only trip with the horse at this track and distance beating petroupetrov on similar terms 3 years ago but age may now be against I anticipate a good run and at 26s with bet fair I am willing to have a little ew in hope and to congratulate RIFLEMAN for his good service on his 100 RUN owes me nothing GOOD LUCK
 
A horse at Bath last week had his 100th run (Bold Cross) and he won by 11 lengths! May be a good omen for old boy Rifleman.

Didnt think he had the best of chances at 13yrs bit of sentimental value would of regreted not wishing good luck as for ap on the fav I think he only wins when I go against him lol
 
Well I'm gonna take a punt against the forum as there is value at 8/1 in backingMount Welcome eway, good luck!!

Don't think I heard mine mentioned in the race but it was only for buttons anyway. I would stay away from Royal Trooper in future guys, didn't want to win with such a poor race at it's mercy. It had been beaten a combined total of 153 lengths in it's last 3 starts and I couldn't have backed it with free money today.
 
I would imagine 3 out and 2 out he would have been long odds on on the exchanges. Looked far superior until it came to a fight. Has he had a breathing operation or is that still an option?

STRAIGHT JACKET NOT REQUIRED first let me down I'm glad I got on when they opened odds were much better
 
EW Lucky 15 for me:

5:35 Lingfield - Amethyst Dawn 10/1
6:15 Naas - Lilys Star 7/1
8:05 Sandown - Lutine Bell 11/2
8:30 Naas - Silverlord 18/1

and one at a crappy price but should do well in 7:25 Naas - Boston Rocker 3/1
 
I'm very suprised to see darlymple 13s in the last I looked at this last night and out of all of the runners he was one left in the top 4 he is weighted well had a good run last time out has won at the distance carrying more and beat the fav of similar terms (3f less) not long ago so small ew for me
 
A week ago Laura Young's JIGSAW FINANCIAL produced a fine effort to win at Worcester from completely out of the blue. It wasn't the greatest of races but he did it well. He can probably defy a penalty and win the 5.20 there tomorrow. If so what chance this small yard doubling up with the one I am having a cheeky each way wager on tomorrow, PATRICKTOM BORU 33-1 5.55 Worc is a winning Irish point to pointer fairly recently. His handicap mark here looks like one that he could now take advantage of and at the price I am willing to take a chance that the trainer can produce another surprise winner.

First one in Stick well done
 
To much time on my hands today but I fully expect these 3 to place macchiara,cosimo de midici and red paladin good luck
