  1. Not a bad day 2 with the big treble landing and Skybet paying out 5 places on Fishery Lane at 40/1. Day 3 1.30pm - Facile Vega 11/5 2.10pm - Le Milos 33/1 Ante Post 4.10pm - Crebily 7/2 4.50pm - Jade De Grugy 2/1 Also got a patent on with Envoi Allen, Home by The Lee & Angels Dawn
  2. Never a big fan of hype horses like Brighterdaysahead. Elliotts stable form at the minute is also shite. I'll be on Jade De Grugy.
  3. Day 2 looks a bit of a snorefest. I've got a treble running with State Man, Ballyburn and Fact to File. Other bets are; Coral Cup - Built by Ballymore 6/1 ew and Western Fold 28/1 ew Champion Chase - No bet Cross Country - No bet Grand Annual - Saint Roi 7/1 ew Bumper - Fleur Au Fusil 20/1 ew & Fishery Lane 40/1 ew
  4. Some training performance in the last. Well done.
  5. There is arguments for and against both horses to be honest. Embassy Gardens blew up last year at Cheltenham but has looked impressive this year, his jumping especially. Corbetts Cross had his own problems at Cheltenham last year when he ran into the railings at the last hurdle. His jumping has been a bit suspect at times this year but has a really good chance if he jumps well. He is a bit quirky but the trainer is top class to be fair so I'd imagine he will have him spot on for this. I picked Embassy Gardens as he tends to make ground at his fences rather than lost ground. Something Corbetts Cross has been at risk of in the past.
  6. I don't follow flat racing but I believe there is similar issues but couldn't confirm 100%.
  7. Quite a few issues to be honest. The schedule needs totally scrapped and redone imo. There is far to many meetings which is effecting prize money and sponsorship. In Britain, trainers are also very reluctant to put their best horses against one another until the week of Cheltenham. This wasn't the case say 10-15 years ago. This is leading to big races having field sizes of 3 or 4. This is also putting people off attending race courses. Affordability checks are also beginning to cause problems for punters and prospective new owners. I think this will only get worse in all honesty.
  8. British racing is a bit of a shambles at the minute tbh and does need fixing.
  9. What a week of sport with this and the football on Thursday, buzzing is an understatement. My bets for Tuesday will be; Supreme Novice - Mistergif main bet, Asian Master ew Arkle Chase - Hunters Yarn Ultima - Famous Bridge ew Champion Hurdle - No bet (may stick few quid ew on Nemean Lion if it continues to drift) Mares Hurdle - Lantry Lady ew Boodles - Ndaawi main bet, Latin verse ew National Hunt Chase - Embassy Gardens
  10. That's horrendous man, thoughts with all of his family.
  11. Could tell early on he was struggling on the surface. Certainly looked like his hamstring he was holding when he went off.
  12. That Chadwick stand is a fucking death trap btw, dangerously oversold.
  13. Agree with this, Wednesday night is huge.
  14. Certainly one of the more difficult ones but our record against Portugese teams is excellent.
  15. Some ties are more difficult than others obviously but I'd honestly think we would beat any of them if we play well over two legs.
  16. Couldn't believe how bad Hibs were the other week when we played them so any more dropped points for the tims would be a massive bonus.
  17. I've always liked Goldson but wouldn't mind a change in there from the Summer, thought he was howling last night.
  18. Think we will win convincingly tbh, Warnock or no Warnock.
  19. How long's Carter Vickers out for?
