Going to have a small bet on global melody in the next at 33s to get a first turf win
In the soft conditions
 
Does anybody know if there's been any issues with this race? Just checked my account and my bet was void and I got my money back

I haven't seen anything weird. Maybe a mistake? It is not normal that it happens but it happened to me a year and a half ago for Cheltenham 2019. I had bet for Albert Bartlett in October 2018 Carefully Selected 20/1 e/w. He was non runner and obviously being an early bet was a loser but on the same day of the race they gave me a void and they returned my money. Mystery.

In the second division of the Windsor maiden, I expected that Longlai would be very skinny. He didn't build very much on his first start last time but on both occasions he ran over 7F he didn't quite seem to last home. The drop to 6F today should suit the Shalaa colt.

Some of those who have raced could step up a fair bit and you never know with the newcomers but the Hannon horse sets a clear standard for now and 7/4 seemed worth taking. It almost looks worryingly big but I'll bite.

4.30 Windsor Longlai 7/4

I'll need a Long Lie if he fails!

Disappointing this day but won at 8/1 next time. <doh>

As my Dad used to say "It's enough to make you bite your cock"
