    I'd like to see Tetlami go well too Ron (or even Oddy! <laugh>). Only because he wouldn't see which way Simonsig went!!! <laugh>

    Not quite Newbury this is it?!

    Settled on inner in midfield, steady progress 4 out, short of room and switched 3 out, challenged travelling well approaching final furlong and quickened clear entering final furlong, comfortably.

    Quite tempted to open an account with Billy Hills to get some of their 20s for the Supreme on Tetlami - anyone any experience with Hills online?

    I could bore you with a very long story, the short version is I had a Hills a/c during the 2006 footy World Cup, took quite a bit out of them on cricket while they were focussing on football, after the world cup they closed my account.
    Opened up a few dummy ones in friends/family names, 2 bets in they start restructing me to pennies.
    Beancounters not bookmakers....

    It would appear the betting market at Kempton is getting it just about right, two 2nd favourite winners and a favourite all of whom were worth of a punt.

    4.25 Kempton. Woolfall Treasure (Nap)Come on lads, get some of this. Here's a 100 rated stayer on the flat- only Secret World is better than that and he's never won beyond a mile on the level.
    Woolfall's second to Ile De Re in a Class 2's at Ascot and third behind Highland Castle at Salisbury (over 2 miles and 14 furlongs respectively) gives him a great chance.
    The others have achieved nothing near these two, and 10/1 (Betfair) and 9/4 place only look an outstanding bet. there's no way he should be 10/1.

    What a terrible days racing Southwell's slow motion sand racing and jumpers running on the flat for exercise.

    That moan aside i think Decider is way overpriced at 14-1 in the first at Wolverhampton. The weight turnaround taking claims into account with Grand stitch is nearing on a stone and yet that horse is 5-1.

    Wolverhampton 5.10 Decider 14-1 EW

    Kempton 4.55 Harvest song 40-1 EW (4th)

    Cheers, Woolcombe, I got 9/4 a place on Betfair. Pity he didn't win but can't complain with a decent profit. I think he needs a stiffer track but is on the decline, I think:emoticon-0148-yes:
