    1.25 Leopardstown: SIZING EUROPE 1/2

    Unopposable back at 2 miles against a seemingly below best Big Zeb, and Rubi Light over a trip less than ideal.

    2:00 Leopardstown: WAAHEB 5/2 (NAP)


    The champ travels across to Ireland to ride at the Leopardstown meeting and this is Waahebs big chance to confirm the promise he has shown so far. A very satisfactory hurdling debut, has been given a short break since, and has the raw bility to see off Jezki, whose victory over Champagne Fever I dont think is as good form as people mght think. Champagne Fever is a big, strong galloper and he is made for chasing, not hurdles.


    Then roll on the 28th for the Lexus, and the 3m hurdle where Monksland is 6/1 and I'll be investing a little bit on him <ok>

    I think there is a very good bet at Kempton tomorrow.

    Kempton
    1.30 Kaffie 13-2

    This horse is excptional value I feel as he is in a race that he has the ability to win as he travelled very well on his first outing before not being able to go on, tomorrow he will be that much fitter and ready to win a race that is not quite as strong as he was faced with last time. I would take the price best odds.

    Best of luck to all tomorrow.

    Odddy beat me to the punch.....means you are head to head with me Bluesky as my good thing tomorrow is ONE LUCKY LADY 4-1 1.30 Kempton who ran a belter behind forum favourite Kentford Grey Lady at Sandown. Penalised a mere 1lb for that run this 4yo can improve for that. SHE hails from the all conquering Nicky Henderson yard and in my book is unopposable!

    FOR NON STOP bet of the day, he'd have been in the Top 3 of the King George today should win this with some in hand.

    A couple of interesting characters in the Wetherby handicaps tomorrow.
    DONTPAYTHEFERRYMAN 9-2 2.20 is dropped to a handy mark and has headgear reapplied. This is a chase but if he transfers his form from hurdles then he could certainly go close. The big worry is that there is no market move as yet from a gambling yard!
    The 3.25 is very competitive and I would actually recommend leaving it alone but I am too tempted by BILLSGREY 25-1. He is dropped 3lbs from a mark that he was very narrowly beaten off two runs ago. Conditions should suit perfectly so I cant resist a minmalistic each way dabble, he shouldnt be too far away.

    I won't be surprised If your selection wins Stick as that was a great run last time out. I always remember Kim Bailey speaking of Kaffie last year however and he did so with real enthusiasm for her, and I think there is more to come. I am convinced if Kaffie does not win she will certainly be giving yours most to do.

    Apologies for getting her gender confused, I always do this when writing, always useing 'he', about the only race I could be backed not to get it wrong in is the Oaks. <doh>

    Toppy, regards Waaheb, there isnt a bigger fan of the horse than me, ive been a serious follower since his first run in a bumper, re tomorrow, youve done your dough, let it go, Jezki is an absolute nailed on naily thing.

    im dealing only in utter certainties today

    Simonsig, Sizing Europe and Sanctuaire, the three esesss, I wouldnt put anyone off risking their family and homes on those 3 winning, but at reasonable prices, Jezki and For Non Stop rate the bets of the day without a shadow.

    and I put my money where my mouth is.

    we dont fck about when it comes to a serious bet.

    and a horse everyone should be keeping an eye on, goes by the name of Venture Capital, not 100% yet regards tomorrow and the ground but this is a serious animal and one you should make sure you watch for future reference at the very least.

    will see how the betting is tomorrow.

    £800 quid on with Ladbrokes, I take it this is a new account. Either that or you must be losing a fortune with them.

    I'm having a little investment on Drumshambo in the 2.20 at Wetherby.

    Good morning all, hope you all had an enjoyable Xmas

    It's a shame there's no Welsh National running. Anyway a few for today.

    12.20 Leop - DIPLOMAT This fella's supposed to be red hot and is worth a stab now for the Triumph, if he wins you have a nice trade.

    2.50 Lim - START ME UP @ 20/1 Was 3rd in the Kerry national off todays mark, jockey claims a further 7lb and this is a muchg less competitive race.

    2.55 Weth - ALAND ISLANDS @ Evens Should be too good for this lot

    3.10 Leop - THARAWAAT @ 25/1 A talented chaser on his day & only 5lbs higher than his last win & loves bottomless ground.

    3.35 Ling - SAKHEES PEARL @ 7/2 Very unlucky not to of won last time out and can grab the spoils today.


    Good luck everyone!

    The Mares hurdle looks a cracker.

    I can see why you'd fancy Kaffie and I can see why you'd fancy One Lucky Lady because Kentford Grey Lady looked very well in (and for the same reasoning you'd have to fancy Tempest River). But I was at Sandown that day and KGL gave the field 12L at the start (maybe it was a planned) and cruised through to win as she liked. It's only a foolish man who opposes Stickler, but for me, Miss Milbourne can carry top weight to victory here. She's all guts and she gets this trip with a brave run behind the best mare in Ireland LTO. 13/2 will be a decent bet if I'm there....weather is ****e though....

    me and my m8 have an account with ladbrokes that is about 20k down with about 50k in bets placed, from 16 to 20 we done fortunes, only over the last 2 years or so we have got the nut together.

    If you had seen the betting patterns on the accounts over the last 6 years, you wouldnt be in a rush to knock it back <ok>

    winning grands at royal ascot and losing it that night at Wolverhampton, for years, serious mug account, never had trouble betting anything with them, I could probly phone them using the account details and have 20k on something.
