Wooly they are of such fragile nerves now that a fella with an irish accent phoned up this morning to put £200 on and they dropped it into 4-7 from 20's just in case. There is definitely a Barney connection however. The trainer is also the trainer of prohibition who runs in the same race. Last time out Prohibition was trained by J. Butler and ran in the same silks that Low Key did yesterday. I could be way off the mark but I wonder if the bookies are trying to lure punters in with a horse with a similar profile after the exposure that yesterdays punts had. I can't imagine the same connections going for another whilst the radar is up so high. Maybe that's the point a double bluff.
Just the 2 tonight, both EW: Daring Indian 18:00 Kempton (A.W) Acer Diamonds 18:30 Kempton (A.W) Also think Pipers legend's gamble could be a cover for better odds on Prohibition, nothing to suggest it but just a hunch???
Didnt get ti see the race yet but a close up third won't put bread on the table unfortunately and so we move on. Nice shouts today lads especially on Mala Beach i thought he migjt be suited more today at Gowran but no bet was done!
Stick around?? Any word for Charlie longsdons Java Rose in the 6.30 tonight?? Seems to me they must be expecting a good run with Kirby booked for the ride...9/2 e/w bet to nothing!
Backed it last night at 20s saw it was 6/4 when I went in bookies at lunch so started to think I'd made mistake last night but checked my account when I finished work and I definitely got 20s
After you with the crystal ball Badger! What on earth persuaded you to back it - couldn't have been form, surely? I don't know if it won or not as PP failed on the commentary, even though I had a quid bet in the race, just to see it!
It had already lost when I posted, I backed it just because it's a horse I've won with in the past and not seen it out for a while so thought I'd give it a go
All I can tell you is that CL likes the horse a lot. It was sold out of his stable last season but he has since been and bought it back. Looking for an owner I think but may well pay for her keep tonight! I cannot believe how a horse backed from 6/1 in to 5/2 can run so badly. Sorry gang!
Hahahahahaha - just seen the result of the 5pm Kempers Well done Boil - I have now got 16 quid that I didn't have before! I placed a £1 win on Prohibition on Boil's suggestion just so I could see how the "gamble" went. Then PP din't show it, or broadcast it either it seems! EDIT: If you saw any of ATR's pre racing programmes where they discussed yesterday's coup, you may have picked up on Sean Boyce's comment that as the sting had clearly been planned for months, there would have been other horses ready to win, in case of last minute injuries. Maybe this was one of them?
