    Yeah, I thought Dogora was a cert on Monday but he only came third. Days Hotel was a double with Tammy's Hill (who won) but the drying ground killed his chance before they'd even run the race.

    We can't always win every time we have a bet. I won't look through your selections a) because i'm not arsed and b) because I can't ever remember you putting up that many winners anyway so what's the point.

    Don't you worry about me though. I won five figures at Cheltenham and you saw the 20/1 return on Sunday. United on Saturday for a large sum, the Knicks beating the Heat etc etc etc.

    Really hope Zaynar can do himself justice today old boy, remember him winning the Triumph from Walkon like it was yesterday, the first race on a monumental day at Cheltenham 2009, hours later Kauto Star went down in history.

    22/1 about Zaynar is very tempting......

    I'm not Shergar.

    Ron and Oddy can attest to that.

    Nice result with Tammy's Hill. There aren't many who could tip up a 1/4 shot <doh><doh>

    Joe, are Bob and Shergar the same person? I remember Shergar claiming to be a pro punter back on the old 606 lol!!

    I do not have a job, and my only source of income is gambling, if you wish to call that a pro then so be it :biggrin:

    I&#8217;m no football expert but aren&#8217;t Basel at 9/1 to beat Tottingham tonight a huge, huge price?!? My mole in the dugout advises that they are comfortably top of the Swiss League, they knocked out big spenders Zenit St Petersburg in the last round and last term Basel made the knockout stages of the old &#8216;Champions League&#8217;. Tottingham meanwhile have lost 3 out of there last 4 matches...

    I've had a few discussions with fellow posters and if they are not the same people then they are certainly as strange as each other.

    Pro gambler? I think not.

    If he don't have a job, he wants to go out and get one rather than backing odds on shots and watching pornography all day

    I have already given my shoo in, which is Quito De La Roque. I'd also advise backing both Oscar Whisky and Thousandstars in the Aintree Hurdle, ones 7s the others 12s. The race is between that pair, and can't understand why there being overlooked :biggrin:

    Ok back to the racing mate, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Oscar Whisky is seemingly being overlooked as I think he may be in the early stages of what looks like a steep decline, remember Punchestowns? Thousand Stars is ok, but this the best 2m4 Aintree hurdle field I've seen.

    Quito De La Roque definitely has a chance if Conti doesn't bring his A game, but if he does, he's no chance

    Just because you spend your free time surfing obscene websites, do not judge me by your own low standards :biggrin:

    5.15 Lingfield Symphony in Blue 5/1 (William Hill)
    Cost 410,000 as a yearling out of dam Blue Symphony who has produced group level winners in Fantasia and Pink Symphony. Stoute had a maiden winner yesterday and at the prices this one looks worth a punt.

    OW has only run 1 bad race, and he has worked very well since by all accounts. I think it's a little premature to be writing him off as in decline:biggrin:

    'Free time'? What is that? Something enjoyed by scroungers, doleys, and the great unwashed I'd imagine!

    When was the last time OW won a race? Thats a genuine question by the way, cos I can't think off of the top of my head, nor can I be bothered looking it up. But I just get the impression he may be on the decline, and BG is a very good judge of a horse, and would not jump ship for nothing.

    Colbert Sation blue across the board on &#8216;Oddschecker&#8217; and as low as 9/1 now that McCoy has chosen him. But cor blimey who would back a horse in the GN based on the jockey?!? Madness in my eyes.

    Yawn.

    Joe Lively falls into the same bracket of being unable to pick a winner. When you know your arse from your elbow we'll have a chat. Until then I'm sure we'll both be happy to ignore each other.
