    Good for you SMP. Mine isn't real money as I don't bet. But I put all the "profit" on Anglophile at 4/6

    Couldn't resist another odds on shot having listened to the owner so took the 4/6. 6 points of the bookie's. on it.

    Goes up 18lbs next week so well in at the weights today and won like it; never an anxious moment.

    Heis. Considering the going was soft your boy ran a cracker, running on well at the finish. Clearly loves Redcar doesn't he.

    Good info wooly. Stuck it in a e/w treble at 14's with Heis' BPG (25's) and Johnny Murtagh's mount Fleur De Nuit (3's) in the 7.10 at Sligo so hoping Murtagh gets a place to get a return from it.

    I wish that one would have got up SMP as it let me down for an extraordinary sum as the only loser in a nice priced yankee. Taking my disappointed hat off however I thought Million in Mind's jockey gave it a great ride as she looked like she needed real encouragement to keep going and he got the best from her, My other reflection is that were it most other jocks on the winner she would have got passed, great ride by Hughes.

    I also like your selection in the last at Kempton Uncle, a fairly desperate race and this one looks one of the few that may still have more to come.

    Much respect for posting Danbo, couldn't get on today due to work but very nice place odds. What plans for a winter campaign mate? Handicap hurdling as long as the ground holds up?

    Unfortunately there was no price available when I backed it so had to take SP. It's won at 9/2 which will do but took some late money so was nearly double that price about half hour before the race so could have been much better but a winner is still a winner no matter how crap the price

    We all have bad patches its judging how much you bet and when thats key the handicapper has a good grip at the moment nothing stands out like a sore thumb and on the sp wait till the market opens patience is a vertue good call anyway mate
