    Dont usually touch the fibresand but with the jumps looking like the weather will catch it out also my selection was definately an eyecatcher lto before unseating the rider when victory looked certain

    13.00 Southwell- Coloumbian Roulette- 5/2

    Winning looked like sure thing before jinking left and unshipping his rider when looking to have the race in safe keeping. He should confirm his apparent superiority over the winner that day Its All A Game. And despite the handicapper raising him up by 7lbs he should make up for the other week with a win here.

    I see Ghostwing turns out again (over an extra furlong) after his 3rd today. Not sure what to make of that.

    That looks a very fair price Wooly, one which is being held up by money coming for the Johnston horse. There is nothing to recommend the Johnston horse however in the form book and when that is added to the fact that he may not act on the most unique surface in the country I feel the price of 5-2 for your selection could be incredibly generous.

    I was looking at Johnston horse but as you say could find nothing to suggest his favouritism so am not too worried about him. but hopelly the 5/2 is a very good price and without the fav in the race he would be a shade of odds against imo but Im hoping it will look very generous come 13.05 lol

    DERMATOLOGISTE Wetherby 3:05 14-1 is back within a pound to his last two wins and will run a big race. Trainer just coming into form and conditions look ideal.

    Just wanted to say how sad it was for two fatal injuries in same race at Southwell today, one with the stalls and then the other close to the finish. Shows how sad racing can be at times. In a sprint too :(

    Can anyone confirm whether Stonebrook is JP's only horse with Don McCain? I can't recall any others .................

    Quite like 2/1 about his chances today in what looks a competitive novice hurdle

    Good afternoon gentlemen!

    I thought I had posted my selections on here earlier but for whatever reason my phone must not have thought the same thing!

    Anyway as I always get 2 firsts and a second In my trebles I thought I may as well give a patent a go:

    Selections were:
    Rocky Stone 1.20 9/2
    Rose of the moon 1.55 3/1
    Dothedecentthing 3.35 9/2

    We know how this looks so far so if last cones in I'm in for a very nice payday and if not I've still got a nice one! :p
    I know I've gone against yours stick which really bothered me after I put the bet on but mine has been backed substantially all day so I'm hoping I can get one over on you this time. Reckon Brian Hughes will get him home for me!

    Have another small 5 horse accumulator running as well all short price favs but really nothing too interesting for me today.

    What happened with Colombian roulette?? Had it backed single to see it "snatched second" ?

    this hobbs horse is being backed like it cant lose----Gwadlys Street might make a race of it--thought the stables other horse earlier Kykate was travelling very well until brought down--was sure to be in the shake up--this one has been competing well enough--likes a slog...
