  1. A general trend seems to be that the British horses run well in the handicap chases (Corac Rambler) and the Irish dominate the handicap hurdles.

    With that in mind, I'll be having a few darts today.

    2.50 - Grand Roi and Tax For Max

    4.50 - Global Citizen and Elixir Du Nutz

    --

    General fancies...

    1.30 - Good Land for the Marine Nationale connections yesterday. The Mullins fav is surely underpriced, and Hermes Allen may be a little slow to live with the Irish (will be backing for the Brown Advisory next year though!)

    2.10 - I think Gerri Colombe will shit up.

    3.30 - Emergumene to beat Edwardstone, the rest a fence behind.

    4.10 - If the ground is soft, Galvin. If it dries up, Delta Work. Snow Leopardess a lively outsider.

    Don't listen to me though, I can't tip coal.

     

     

  2. Tough day today.

    1.30 - don't like any of the top 3 in the market. Think it's a weak race without an outstanding candidate. Tahmuras and Rare Edition tentative choices.

    2.05 - Flip a coin between the top two. Both outstanding prospects. Dysart Dynamo will set off like a greyhound and fade.

    2.50 - love this race. Into Overdrive outstanding claims. Horses that have run well in this race tend to repeat and do so again (Corach Rambler and Oscar Elite). Top Ville Ben could go well at a price.

    3.30 - sit back and watch

    4.10 - the up and comers usually beat the older mares on the downturn. Brandy Love or Love Envoi. Against Honeysuckle and Epatante.

    4.50 - pin job time. All depends which horse has a stone in hand. Samuel Spade shouldn't be 20/1 and is worth a small each way.

    5.30 - favourite should be running in the 3 miler tomorrow imo. Would win either. Didn't convince over this trip previously, but should have enough class to win.

    BETS

    1.30 - Tahmuras

    2.50 - Into Overdrive / Top Ville Ben

    4.10 - Brandy Love

    4.50 - Samuel Spade

     

     

  3. Tested positive an hour ago - first time I've had it. Just come back from a stag do so I could have given it a fair few people. Thought I was just run down after 4 nights drinking, but sadly not.

    Work have said I have to register the test online, but it was a paid for LFT from Tesco so computer said no.

    Any ideas where I can register it? Or do I need to send off for a proper test?

     

  4. Bastard of a day that. Started at 7am, and finished about half 1. The worst thing is them heavy orange trousers they make us wear - liking working in a coat of armour.

    We've been told to start at 6am in the morning, so I suppose that's a slight help. Will probably mean a finishing time of about 1ish.

    I've had more ice pops than I can shake a stick at though - one delightful lady gave us three fruit shoot ice pops whilst her daughter cried because they were her favourite, but she "needs to learn to share".

    Felt like Satan himself when we ate them.

     

  5. I've been working on the bins again for the last month or so due to us been short staffed at work.

    Can't wait to be dressed from head to toe in heavy orange clothing, whilst the public say "warm enough for you mate".

    Don't think we'll get away with the kilt that the bloke at York Council wore.

    Be a grim two days.

  6. 14 hours ago, DCW said:

    His podcast is decent enough, really surprised me anyway. He has a good memory for stories for a lad who has taken so many knocks to the head.

    I'm in no doubt about his diva white knighting creepyness though, I'm just a scumbag wrestling fan with no morals!

    I generally enjoy his podcast too - but his story regarding Keibler and implants really put the heebeejeebies up me.

     

  7. I think that Discorama, Run Wild Fred and Delta Work are the most likely winners and have the correct profile - although take my selections with a tonne of salt after my Cheltenham shambles.

    I've also backed If The Cap Fits and Tea Clipper in the earlier races.

  8. Shocking day yesterday.

    Few longer priced darts for me today.

    I Am Maximus in the 1.30 at about 16s. Ran well behind Hillcrest who I think wins on Friday. Don't like the favourite over this trip, and I think Journey With Me doesn't warrant the price. Stage Star is a soft ground plodder.

    Already on Bravemansgame at 25s (placed last March) so I'll keep fingers crossed. Incidentally, I backed Farouk D'alene for the NH Chase at 50s, so I'll be mortified when he clearly chins Brave. Ah well.

    Gowel Road or The Shunter in the Coral Cup - both will give a run for money. Each way places down to 7th, so I don't mind that.

    Can't have a bet in the Queen Mam or the Cross Country - so I'll be waiting for Gumball and For Pleasure in the Grand Annual. I like front runners in this, so hopefully these 2 will blast out and stay on.

    Brandy Love is my strongest fancy of the day though. Don't Google it though.

     

  9. Echo the sentiments already posted in here so far.

    I remember watching that shitty Indy Show that wheeled him out when he was clearly off his face and the sad attempt at his discus punch - and thinking it was only a matter of time.

    But he managed to kick the drink and enjoy his retirement.

    R.I.P.
