    Not at a working mans price but Un de Sceaux is out tomorrow. Is currently 12/1 for the champion hurdle! I cant see his price changing that much after tomorrow as this looks doesnt look the strongest race. But will be interesting to see him out again!

    Kelso 14.20 Rocky Stone is the one for me. Not happy about the price (3/1) but should beat this lot

    On the subject of emotional films I watched 12 years a slave the other day and then the lone survivor the next. Great films and both certainly play with the heart strings

    Welcome to the forum and best of luck with your horse. I've already got two picked out in the same race, Better Back Bob 10/1 & Mick The Man 25/1. The latter is a bit of a dart as the horse has been off for 4 years but there must be a reason for running it again after so long and you just never know

    Are you sure today is the day or is this a "follow over a cliff" job?

    Cheers mate,

    I'm not going to lie to you and tell you i know a lot about my selection ,I don't. I work in a very busy bookmakers in ireland and thought I might aswel share some of the horses that the big punters with known information come in to do.
    As you can see I've been creeping on here since January '13 and loving the site. Now it's my time to shine and hopefully give you some winners too :)

    Thanks for the warm welcome,

    Best of luck.

    ( I'll be backing my selection each way)

    Is it all about a learning curve stick or you hopeful for a big run? Any dark horse lurking in the yard to look out for?

    Everything is spot on for him, back left handed, extra furlong, ground fine, so im hoping he will take a bit of beating. How good this Gigginstown horse is I dont know, thats some smart bumper form he has with Shaneshill and Joshua Lane but I wouldnt want 1/2 about him first time over hurdles to beat Leavethelighton today.

    Ive took 9/2 on the exchange and I think that is a very fair price.

    This might be the last time hes value in a shallow maiden because if he runs a good race in second "bumping into one" then hes going to be a short price the next time hes in one.

    I dont think hes anything out of the ordinary and Wounded Warrior will most likely turn out to be the best horse in the race but I like him and im sticking with him for now.

    Morning all sand rats again then
    the first sees invigilator on better terms than when closely behind parisian pyramid and 5s still available in places looks a fair ew crack.
    The second races sees diamond charlie (very quick)come up against some stern competition I mentioned this on friday after I took a chance on muhdiq after I realised he was out today in this race, after looking then diamond stood out a mile so at 5/2 a very fair win price.
    thataboy seems like the wheelbarrow job of the day fingers crossed.
    The 5th sees diletta tommasa return after a long break if primed and ready will win this easy 4s is enough for me to take a chance on that.
    The 6th is a bit of a puzzle but classy trick looks way to big at 7s.
    the last sees bottom weight kyllachy star at 4s with a fantastic chance of getting over the line first .
    good luck all

    Conditions not ideal tomorrow mate, a bit too soft but it's all about getting runs into her and her learning the job. She worked well yesterday and hopefully tomorrow she can pick up some prize money although we do not expect to lay a glove on the top two.
    There are still a few in the yard that have yet to appear. Some nice youngsters that he will be going to war with in bumpers during the spring. There is a nice Robin De Pres gelding and gorgeous filly who's name I cant remember to watch out for.

    Sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday, I was out of the house when you rang and didn't get chance to call back until racing was well underway.
