Horse Racing

Dreamfield in a handicap today?
Thought it was a group horse the way it’s hacked up a few times. Big old tough handicap today though.

He was originally earmarked for the Commonwealth Stakes yesterday but connections opted for this instead.

And he was pulled out of a handicap the other day because they thought he woukd bolt up which meant he woukd have incurred a penalty today.
 

...Northumberland Plate tomorrow. I have fond memories of the race going back to Tamarpour winning it when I was in Dublin for the Irish Derby (1991). We went to Howth on the Saturday and wiped the local bookie out.

Been having a bet on the Ascot rces today. Done okay, but was on Bajan Gold in the last, and it has just got beat by a short head by







Koeman....

Couldn't believe it. The guy's still messing up my Saturdays.
 

I backed Alexanderthegreat at 7/4 in the 17.00 at Chelmsford.

It got smashed in the ring, went off 1/4.

Scooted about 10 lengths clear and got beat 2 lengths.

Fuming dosent even come close here, Ryan bloody Moore... AGAIN.

..sure way to the poor house backing those short priced favourites. I know i’m a mug punter myself but I rarely back anything less than 10-1. I’m useless.

I'm skint mate.

I should stick to backing my own greyhounds and punting on the cricket !

But 7/4 into 1/4 on is some punt gone astray.
 

..you’re brilliant at the greyhounds. You’re a much smarter punter than me and a good bloke, just take care.
The Irish greyhound Derby draw is tonight actually mate.
I'm having a dabble on two E/W at huge prices.
Minor Mike and Jaytee Taylor.
Both 50/1 and like our bet in the English Derby, if they get to the final you get paid.

..now you’re talking. Certainly worth an interest for me and no issue if they fail to materialise.
 
Towcester gone into administration.

Greyhound Derby needs a new home, let alone the horse racing.

Sounds like it was ran like Everton in the late 90's.
