    Un De Sceaux at 13/2 means I'm freerolling the rest of the day (including recouping on the first couple of races). Lovely.

    Design Matters finished 4th, which id imagine isn’t good enough for a place with most bookie.

    Was that a deliberate move there? Looked really suspect.

    Crazy finish. Never seen anything like it.

    Had a decent bet on Al Boum Photo.
    wtf was the jockey doing?

    Classic Irish racing there

    Just a 21 day ban for Townsend. No explanation given as to why he did what he did.

    you would be furious if you backed finians oscar

    the only thing he can think of is that there not going over the last fence, which is ridiculous.

    anyone on here heading to sandown next Saturday or fancy as i have 2 tickets going to bomb it off to go the charlton game, paid £50 for the pair of tickets, happy to let someone have them for nothing, chuck a score to the upbeats would suffice.

    if they let me know by Wednesday happy to post them out

    bump anyone? otherwise will go in the bin.

    Brilliant win in the stayers by Faugheen. Made every yard and smashed 'em. Amazing.

    Absolutely hosed up but the other jockeys gave David Mullins a lot of rope

    In more sobering news, RIP Cantlow. A wonderful cross country horse.

    just had a browse at punchestown of the 437 runners this week,

    mullins trained 71
    elliot trained 68

    nearly a 1/3rd trained by either of them madness.

    think supasundae could be due a huge run today, samcro is a beast but this will be a different test than its faced before.

    At least melon and samcro both up fine but 12/1 not bad ;)

    I know it's not top of our sporting interests this weekend but it should be a fiercely competitive Whitbread today as usual (3.35pm). Looks wide open and wouldn't be surprised to see yet another blanket finish.
    Just two bearing my shillings today, either of which at their best are capable of being in that cavalry charge up the Sandown hill and, as such, are (IMHO) overpriced.
    Relentless Dreamer (40s) joined by BENBENS at 50/1 (6 places) - not just to avert the spectacle of me hopping around trying to kick myself in the arse for abandoning him after his poor run last Saturday but this track and trip on decent ground has seen him produce two of his best runs in his long career, including earlier this season (before the ground went) when taking the London National. Was close 4th (0.75L) in this race last year with 10.09 (on GS). 3lb higher mark today but carrying10.03 and the same red colours as Blaklion.
    COYR.

    Top Notch should win the 2.25. Rathlin Rose each-way in the Whitbread.

    JC....my reputation's clearly shot to buggery.
    Benbens universally out to 66s :blush:

    More procession than cavalry charge with a convincing win by the novice Step Back.
    2. Rock The Kasbah
    3. Present Man
    4. Relentless Dreamer
    5. Carole's Destrier
    6. Dawson City

    Belated thanks, as preoccupied by events in SE7, for Relentless Dreamer @PeanutsMolloy

    Sky Sports have launched a dedicated racing channel which is probably just a re-hash of ATR minus Irish racing but the addition of Chester and Bangor.

    Cracksman yesterday looked like he's wintered well and grown into his 4 year old frame.

    Let's hope we can see him and Enable take each other on before the Arc.

    Off to Newmarket Saturday for the 2,000 Guineas. Has anyone been before? How busy does it get?

    9.00 Dundalk - Master Bond @ 16/1. Looks like a sting to me.
  • Options
    Took 25s and got 4 places each way! Was just over a length off in that fourth so a good run evidently.

    Cheers mate, took 16s but they payed out on 25/1.

    I'd expect Cracksman to have improved considerably over the Winter and I know who I would back if the two were to meet, depending upon ground conditions.
