    You're just positioning it wrong.

    It's not spending. It's investing. Does she not want a husband who makes regular large investments for the sake of the family?

    Having just seen Tony Coyle interviewed on RUK, I've had a tiny bit on Lily Rules in the place market. And now, of course, I have to have a little bit on the win. This is not rational behaviour.

    For a horse who has still only seen a racecourse 3 times that was brilliant, could be the same class as Ouija board and Snow Fairy. Only one winner from 4 furlongs out - impressed.

    Congratulations to all with Anti-Post vouchers at fancy prices, I'm chuffed to bits for you, she romped home like the proverbial good thing! Had a small bet @ S.P.

    Any Fancy Anti-Post Doubles running-up on the Derby?

    Good Luck! <ok>

    Horse is in good form, Won this amateur race under jockey Mr J Harding(-3) last year, who has ridden 2 winners out of 3 mounts @ the track.

    When I was backing her before the Pretty Polly every time I backed her I did the double with TRUE STORY. Its unlikely to happen but I don't want to know how much I stand to win. Having backed the 2000 guineas winner ante post also this is proving to be my best flat season ever!

    Well, not bad for me, 4 winners. Had I done the Placepot I would have made about £3. Yippee.
