    Well done wooly , stick ,ging etc
    sorry wooly got to go against you in the last mate mr snoozy 10s ew stunning chance, claimer is threefrom 4 and a third place onboard ,a bit of soft ground wont hurt either mr snoozy just got beat in a blindingly fast 17f race 20 days ago in the soft . Snoozy is exeptional at 15f so today dropping them in the middle looks a shrewd move ! Bobs world only just caught him last time out I have had a small rf on the pair they impressed me that much but think there standings should be reversed from that race as the jockey change on bobs is not as inspiring .
    good luck though mate

    Well done today chaps.

    Some nice winners.

    The one for me today is Calculated Risk in the finale at York at 5/1 each way.

    I put Blair Perrone up LTO at Punchestown as a shot in the dark on the Saturday. He was heavily backed that day but didn't really impress upon the field like I thought he possibly would.

    He's an odds on favourite in the finale at Perth and he could just turn out to be better than this field with that experience under his belt. However, a big reason I backed him last time was his pilot that day was the very good Robbie McNamara. Today he has a 10lb claimer on board who hasn't impressed at all thus far and has not had a winner in 16 rides. Maybe today is the day they put that stat right and give this rider a taste of the winners enclosure. However, there's enough negatives to suggest he's got to be taken on at the prices.

    I've backed Quiet Account at 9/1 to turn this favourite over. Quite speculative but I want to take the fav on. The McCoy horse may be decent enough but it's usually a red herring to back a Crawford trained, McCoy ridden horse and the price isn't particularly tempting. For this Irish trainer to bring just one horse over to Perth, with a decent claimer on board, I think 9/1 is too big and worth a punt.

    Rebecca romerio with Moore onboard never runs a bad race here and 7s ew looks worth a risk
    The last at fontwell could be anybodys with the weight being thrown around so im going to have a miniscule bet on fast shot 11yrs old drifting like a barge but 66s ew may be nice but not seen the track for some time lol

    Have a soft spot for this horse, I remember once a couple of years ago, I meant to put 20pound on him, my computer was playing up and accidently put 200 needless to say he won @ 7/2. Was a very good day altho squeaky bum time for about 5 minutes <laugh>
