I tipped it to my workmates earlier in the week mate.
Loads followed you at Cheltenham on it only not to get a run. By loads, I mean over 20 odd fellas.

....had the rain stayed off i’m absolutely certain it would’ve won at Aintree. It was a major plunge on a handicap blot but we can’t do anything about the weather.

I kept searching for its next entry, as soon as I saw it going here I posted.

....I backed it 11/2, Fred. It was my way of saying get on. It won 5/2. Great price, clearly a handicap blot. I’m chuffed you backed it, just hoping the likes of @Toast followed us in as it’s the type of price he likes.

I’m always wary of putting horses up because I don’t want folk losing their hard earned.

Nap of the day.

I was on it a Aintree too but it was withdrawn last minute. Didn't realise it was running today until I saw your post so cheers mate.

I only normally have a flutter at the major meets. Had a nice little ew on Blue Flight at 33-1 in the Scottish National too. Keeps the old Skybet account topped up with Newmarket coming uplol

....watch Skelton in all the big festival handicaps next season, he certainly knows how to get one ready. He’s won the County Hurdle for the past two seasons at Cheltenham (Moohayed and Ch’tbello).

He’s the next big thing to replace Henderson and Nicholls.

....well done you. I had 2nd and 3rd, but a lad I was having a pint with had £10 on at 25-1.

Because it's all about the money and the we-care-so-deeply-about-the-horses they spout is pure and utter bull to make viewers feel less guilty about the animal abuse they're literally watching live on television. Horse racing, along with - based on experience from my father over 30 years - dog racing, is utterly brutal.

You are spouting drivel

I didn't agree with the dog racing comment, purely on the dogs I own / have owned.
I look after them, but I'm sure many don't.

....he follows the money and saw it getting backed. He’s a poor punter actually, he follows his close mates who are very good and back big money but he can’t keep up. Good lad, though.

John Gosden usually has a few winners at this Craven meeting.

Shady operator will go close with a bit of luck. Won a good race and trained for this then.
I dont back em but a mate does a bit of pre training for Joseph o Brien and they think It is well in.
