    DECIDING MOMENT 8-1 Wetherby 3.15 won his novice handicap very nicely over 2m5f. He was then stepped up in trip at Newbury and ran very well until weakening between the last two. Dropped back tomorrow to 2.1/2 miles he looks to have a very good chance. The yard like a tickle and I expect to see good support for this one!

    They're going for it already pal. Best of luck chaps.

    I put two up on yesterday's thread.

    Fry's in the first and Hobbs in the last. Both at Wincanton. Plus those 'orrible Scousers to beat City at home. 4/1, 5/4 and 13/10.


    I might not bother with this bumper horse at such cramped odds. Half of the decent bumper yards in the country run something. The Nicholls horse is most interesting to me. That's 7/1. Sounds like a better each way bet to me than taking 5/4 the fav.

    Does the winner of the 'Pool City game win the title then? Liverpool are imperious at the moment. They were robbed at the City ground earlier in the season too. Should be a cracker.

    A case of the ****ers playing the bastards for you Bob!

    C'mon Lee Westwood..perfect for him today...par golf good,not so sure that the birdie fest tmz will suit him however..doesn't putt well enough...how good is Jordan Speith at 20-y-o..great talent...very special player.

    Evens on Betfair for NECK OR NOTHING Bob. Cannot see him being that tomorrow!

    I think Liverpool and Citeh will draw with Chelsea winning at Swansea. Its going to be a fascinating run in!

    Dex, I am on Westwood too but one of my others is Jonas Blixt at 300-1. That would be outrageous!

    Have you seem the longest par 3 with Paddy Harrington Dex? Have to chopper up to play it and has hang time of 40 seconds or something I can't remember the exact numbers but it's a cool novelty hole.

    Im on Bubba at 28/1, his putting went badly today but at least he kept himself in it, he really ought to have a commanding lead. Not sure what to expect tomorrow, if he can sort out his putting I think he will take all the beating but looks a big if.

    'Canuspotit @ 10/1 5.15 Str

    I backed this the last day, very good mover, never jumped a twig and got done for a place in the shadows of the post.
    Down in trip, and off the same handicap mark today, this beast must go close with a half decent round of jumping?
    Good Luck!
