    :emoticon-0100-smile Were you on, SJ? Yesterday was phenomenal, two 9-1's straight off, then a bit later a 4-1. Extraordinary.

    Cheers Stick, you may be right about the form but I just feel this horse has got something to come and travelled really well last time. There has been money for the Stoute horse but we have a clear draw advantage over that one... Providing Queally does not surrender it at the start for no reason that is.

    Two out of three leaves a nice return. Certainly makes up for some of the money I've been pouring into the crookies wallets.

    Easy Boy should run a good race for Pat Martin in 8.05-Pat Smullen is a positive booking-Gone Ew 9/2
    Looking forward to Europa cup final later-Can't say I know to much about Sevillia so wont be having a wager.Reckon it will be a tight game and Liverpool might knick it by a goal.

    Terribly hard luck on the first two Swan - it would be hard to have got any closer as both horses looked nailed on with half a furlong to go and had the race pinched in the final two strides. The replays below are hard watching.....

    Lets hope Higer Power can provide at least a little reward for the graft!

    going close lately but it's coming, definitely coming...

    Incredible that the winners of the last 2 Europa Cups are 5-2 to win tonight. Its almost like Liverpool just have to turn up. Liverpool are an incredibly poor premiership team. They couldnt even qualify for europe through the league. Happy to give the result a miss but this game has goals written all over it looking at the 2 defences. Over 3.5 goals at 9-4 and over 4.5 goals at 5-1 is the way to go. On both.

    Yes, Bluesky, both were really tough to take, but that's racing. Both horses and jockeys tried their damndest, guess that's all one can ask for. Damn good advice though, well done there!

    7 of Liverpools 8 European final wins have been against teams playing in white. Game over.

    Sporting Life website calling Alan King winners in the 3.55 at Warwick and the 6.45 at Southwell an "across the cards double". Surely not?

    Just dragging up an old argument from months ago <laugh>

    Wow what a turnaround from Sevilla - 2 goals of the very highest quality

    Oh dear. Current situation confirms the pre match odds were ridiculous and this is a poor Liverpool team.

    Game over. 5-2 odds to win 3 in a row? Incredible.

    Embarrassing second half display there from us. Could moan about the pens in first half not given but simply not good enough on the night. Too many didn't perform, Coutinho is one plenty of fans seem to jizz themselves over but I swear he's more crap matches than good. Sturridge was the one plus, England should be delighted with there strikers heading to the Euros. Milner, Lallana not so much though. Both mediocre/pish dependent on your expectations. Really thought we'd beat them handy based on our previous rounds but fair play to Sevilla winning it 3 years running. Some effort.

    Brilliant tipping Fusion, WD *grits teeth*
