    Got a value ride from Dunowen Point at 33-1. With a saver on Gull Gord too.

    Bubbles doing well in comp. but only three people scored in last race with no one on the winner. :)

    Lots have AFC next up (not Arsenal) but some variations, including me with Master of the Sea <ok>


    Edit: Didin't know about Little Josh - what a shame, and ironic in a way as he was one you could probably call a course specialist. RIP Little Josh

    Gevrey Chambertin in the next, let me down on last leg of an accumulator at Cheltenham that would have paid £700 from a very small stake. I'm still not betting until tomorrow but very interested to see how this one goes

    To be honest, however much I enjoy the spectacle of these big field chases if I owned a horse I certainly wouldn't risk it in one of those.

    RIP Little Josh <peacedove>

    Get on AP, got to love days like these, two bets, Dynaste and At Fishers Cross.

    Bookies must have got cleaned out with the two odds on shots going in aswell, every one of them romped in too.

    Not often you get money this easy, rare days.

    Well done lads. The winner was a no bet from me but looking back the SP was gigantic.

    Extremely sad news about Little Josh , wish connections all the best. On a lighter note, delighted the bookies are getting cleaned out so far today and At Fishers Cross was a big price given what he's done this season, another exciting one to look forward too.

    At Fishers Cross is starting to to become my favourite horse, dug me out of a hole at Cheltenham, and dug me out of a hole today.

    I really hope they go novice chasing with him next year, he's to classy for the World hurdle :biggrin:

    Remember if you are betting on the National, bet with Ladbrokes, shortest price on the first 6 horses, a huge 6/1 about On His Own.

    Better value can not be had elsewhere.
