    2:25 Sand - THELORDBEWITHYOU 250/1

    Yes you read that correctly fellas and no I haven't been at Grandpas cough mixture just yet!! Ridiculous punting on an 11 yr old novice who has only seen the racecourse 3 times. Should really not be allowed anywhere near these but I'm of the opinion no horse should be 250/1 in a four runner race where anything can happen. Fully expect to be well beaten (if it even finishes!!) but every now and then we get a freak result so I'm having a small tickle on this one.

    Right, you can tear me to bits now guys!! :)

    The first-time cheek pieces could make all the difference Drever ;)

    I'll say this though - at least the ****ing thing has turned up at the races. 4 runners for a Grade 1 is a fecking joke - where are you Nicholls, Twister, Ferguson, Hobbs, Pipe, McCain, King, O'Neill ..........................

    But i think he will do well to beat MR MOLE tomorrow back in handicap racing off a mark of 147 which looks very reasonable and altho a quirky sort they have him all to beat

    Wincanton 2.40 Earthmoves @ 3/1 on his handicap debut!!

    Sandown 12.40 - Aurore D'Estruval will be the favourite, but if the predicted rain comes, Dark Spirit has got to be worth a punt @ 6/1

    Hope you got BOG Drever as he's slipped out 500/1 now. You might just need more than the man upstairs on your side to get this one's head in front this afternoon, but good luck.

    Lucky 15 for me on Brick Red, Balgarry and Unioniste at Sandown and Blue Buttons at Wincanton.

    Another saturday, I really do hate looking on a saturday and cant get motivated so I am giving up after 3 races.
    I looked at the patent but to hell with it trixie it is with a tricast allways and an r/ f
    140 Newcastle categorical looks very well treated for this and really should be going in at nice odds.
    250 Newcastle i think dingo bay could have the edge in this boric r/f
    150 Sandown mentioned a few times allready , if Mccoy makes all again on mr mole I cant see the others winning but awtc with brick red and whilliams wishes
    good luck all
