Congratulations hope all goes well. I'll be in the same boat soon got a 2 1/2 year old lad with another kid due December. Don't know sex of new one yet though
Congrats wooly lad.None myself but plan to make a start in a couple of years once the old baby making factory downstairs is still in good working order!
Had a small ew on Riponian at 12s in the next at Carlisle. I was given it as a tip when it won two starts ago but couldn't be arsed going to bookies to put it on. Then backed it last time and it did **** all having another go today
Congrats to all. Very exciting times. The Ellison team look to have come very close to landing a proper old fashioned gamble today with Blue Bullet winning by a nose or so in the 2.45, Cabelo coming a close second in the 3.45 and Ebazan being very well backed in the 5.30 at Southwell. All three were each way prices when the markets opened. A win, a place and one to run. Very interesting.
7:10 Nottingham - Robin Park 2/1. This one is becoming a favourite of mine, 3rd time I've put her up on here and going for the hat-trick of wins. She won over C&D 2 runs ago and will handle the ground, question marks over the others with the ground. Has went right up in the weights but think she's still has more to come.
Shout with the winner Stick. Apart from the differing prices the jockey bookings made my mind up but I was on the wrong one
Good shouts all around today lads, great stuff. For anyone that's interested in the golf I have out up a thread on the General Vetting Board there so we can keep it away from muddling up the racing forum. Be good to hear the thoughts from some of the shrewdies on this one.
Good call Stick and the Badger for the forecast - he certainly does target that race for some strange reason, and like the good trainer he is, if he does target it he will likely win it. I have often wondered if he could do a job with a better class of horse than he gets.
