Apologies on the Nassau Storm front as really believed in that horse today and went in for it properly. It was clearly unlucky in running as got no run at all and Jim Crowley accepted this in the last furlong, with the run being closed off so far out it was inconclusive to say unlucky would have won or not. My view is still however that the horse should be followed again if running in the same grade next time. :sad:

Noble Deed ran a great race and did as I thought simply not stay the 7f, I would have no hesitation backing this horse next time he is dropped to 6f again.


The saying "All dressed up and no where to go" springs to mind.

Agonizing to see the horse you backed cantering behind a wall of horses. Nothing went right in the race and i agree with you that we will get our money back next time!!!
 
Today's racing is pretty poor and not worth punting on so I bid you all a merry Christmas and will be back with a couple of winners on Boxing Day.

Enjoy the time with friends and family chaps.

Have a good one Bob <ok> top class racing day after day starting from the 26th. Can't fecking wait.
 
Barcelona 2-0 down after 15 minutes to Getafe so I thought why not have a little dabble so I put £5 on Barcelona to win at 3/1 and £2.50 on Barcelona to be winning at half time and full time at 22/1. half time whistle just gone and thanks to a Pedro hatrick Barca are leading 3-2 can't see them losing from here and am kicking myself for been so cheap and not putting more on!

Good stuff and be thankful for small miracles. I remeber a few years ago having the princely sum of &#8364;4 on Roma to lose 2-3 at home to someone in the Champions Leage at 45/1 (can't even remember who it was <laugh>). Anways, it was 2-3 after about 75 minutes and I spent the next 15 minutes praying for neither side to score. It worked and I scooped &#8364;184 but I remember thinking, why didn't I have a score on it? But I was happy for the win nevertheless.

I just had to re-read that sentence a few times, as I initially overlooked the word "at"...
So Firstly; I thought it read ""Barcelona 2-0 down after 15 minutes to Getafe so I thought why not have a little dabble so I put £5 on Barcelona to win 3/1""

<laugh> <laugh> <laugh> Its been a long weekend !!
