Good morning gents.... And what odds on fav will be turned over for the benefit of the bookies today then... Though i cant see Big Bucks going the way of some earlier hot shots...

1.30 - Peddlers Cross
2.50 - Cape Tribulation
2.40 - Riverside Theatre, and a e/w on Captain Chris
3.20 - Big Bucks
4.00 - Niconefrankie or Divers
4.40 - Summery Justice

Will Henderson keep up this winning streak...??? Will we all be lumping on any of his runners if his first one goes in...??? Can i actually win anything on Rons comp...???

All to be revealed later on as the races go by...

Good luck to all, and lets hope todays action will keep us on the edge of our seats again...<cheers>
 
Agree.

Thats pretty much been my philosophy all week.Have backed only four horses.

Sensible approach. Some results I just could not have called.

Big Bucks might have to come from behind today as three horses have a turn of foot, fascinating race and I think thats why the bookies are taking him on.
 
3rd day and im still in profit and the sun is shining so thats a good start:emoticon-0100-smile

ok the World Hurdle - really hoping BIG BUCKS will win and I think he will but the two I think will push him strongest are Thousand Stars and So Young.
Oscar Whisky I dont think will stay.

In the opener this is all about PEDDLERS CROSS for me, the dangers the unknown potential of Cristal Bonus and the proven festival form of Sir des Champs
The 2nd race looks wide open and I can see BUENA VISTA going close again. The McCain horse and Geraghtys ride also could be good each way bets.

wow the Ryanair race looks hot. I am unsure about Riverside Theatre but more confident about SOMERSBY and NOBLE PRINCE. Then there is Albertas Run....basically impossible to predict this one.

Oscar Whisky is bred to stay mate,whether he does of course is another matter!
 
Morning All

Selections as follows :

1.30 Peddlers Cross - If he is fully recovered from the setback then I can't see him getting beat, though I have had an each way on Bold Sir Brian who would be a lot shorter if he was trained by Henderson or Nicholls etc.

2.05 Barwell Bridge - Great each way chance with 5 places on offer

2.40 Kalahari King - I know has not been in the greatest of form but you cant fault his cheltenham record and I think 33/1 is a massive each way price.

3.20 Dynaste - Playing for place money here unless Big Bucks slips up which I really can't see.

4.00 Holmwood Legend - Sprang a surprise in this last year and this has obviously been the target again and I think the 14/1 on offer is a great price, danger is Divers with Mccoy on board.

4.40 Faasel - Another minefield and I could have 10 picks and still not get the winner, Faasel was the first horse that jumped out at me when going through the race so that's my reasoning !!

Best of luck to everyone

Cheers Trevez
 
Cyc - also never **** on your own doorstep and don't piss on your chips <laugh>

Big Bucks the living legend - go on my son !!!
 
Morning, all. My grapevine says exactly the same as Cats' about the Pipe yard, so I'll be laying Salut Flo in the Byrne Group at 4.00, who I thought was underpriced anyway.

Trevez: nice to hear from you. How you doing ? Twins OK ?
 
Hello rainer,

I do hope its Tom Scu that has been found coughing, he deserves to be after those rank rides yesterday
 
Morning, Nass. I didn't get involved yesterday (saving the heavy guns for tomorrow - I really don't think Boston Bob will get beat) but he certainly didn't shine on Grand Crus.

I've got a suggestion to send the BHA for the improvement of racing. Why can't those jockeys who (presumably) get money for displaying STOBART across their backsides also carry a message "How's My Riding?" with an 0800 number to ring underneath it ?

More by chance than design Toppy since a lot of my fancies,as I said,have been scratched or re routed.

Sprinter Sacre and Simonsig were my winners.Waiting for Long Run tomorrow and hoping something else catches my eye as well.

I've also backed OTF for the Foxhunters in January but have gone right off him..<laugh>.
 
Dex - the lads I went to the races with on Tuesday tell me Chapoturgeon won't get beaten in the Foxhunters - they know someone connected with the horse and are all on at fancy prices
 
Thursday Placepot:

Peddlers Cross
SonOfVic
Rubi Light
Big Bucks
Crack Away Jack
Start Me Up

It won't beat sly Mccain Jnrs nap of the week <laugh>

Call the taxi, Chapo will need it to get up the hill!
 
I'm guessing from Oddschecker that Pricewise has put up Summery Justice in the 4.40 and maybe also Sunnyhillboy? Maybe also Crackawayjack in the 4.00? Anyone confirm?
