Yes, just checked account and bet was voided - they are usually decent at refunding in such circumstances but I suppose that fall saved them a few quid.
Afternoon all, agreed not the best racing on offer today but I've had a look at the 5.30 at Wolvs and can't believe that Sir Reginald is the outsider in the market. He has competed at a much higher level than this on the turf last summer and was not disgraced on his first effort on the all weather at Kempton lto. Of his rivals the favourite is returning to the track after a 6 month layoff and the market mover (Star Links) hasn't won over this trip since 2008. The others look fairly well exposed. Sir Reg has a decent claimer on board today and in effect runs off a mark a full stone below a mark that he won off on turf. He must have a better chance than his odds suggest. Each way at 12s.
3rd will do at 12s ew unlucky smokey I just had a gut feeling on the last run ryton would be knocking on the door
Well done Uncle glad you got a return I had mine doubled up with Jim Tango so wouldn't have had anything to come if Vallani had run into money, didn't back them in singles
Southwell 2 up just need the Wolverhampton two now. Thought I had the place pot up at Musselburgh. Had 3 in the last race for only the one I didn't pick fecking wins.
OK not brilliant prices but 2 from 2 Tatting 7/4 (advised 9/4) and Luv U Whatever 6/4 (I'm sure the odds were higher when advised but didn't note them). Better than a kick up the arse. And for me, in my present form, it's ****ing marvellous
Going for a cheeky e/w on RED SHADOW in the last at Southwell. Was beaten 2 1/2 lengths by pick a little last week off level weights. Pick a little is 6/4 and red shadow is 12's but red shadow is about 7 lbs better off today I think.

430 wolvs angels persuit not raced for a while but I dont think it is racing for the hell of it kirby onboard should push these to one side easily if ready 5/2 really is massive on this and well worth the risk . Fat gary has been well naped for this but there could and should be burnt fingers everywhere
