Tonights Claimer at Kempton appears to be a very open affair.

I've narrowed it down to just 6 Silly .. in this order

Gra Admhar.................15.0
War And Peace..............10.0
Daniel Thomas..............17.0
Having A Ball..............12.0
Alqaahir...................8.8
Flying Valentino...........6.0

I'll lay Rain On The Wind (5.3) and Mataram (7.8) instead of backing 6 hosses in one race.

3-00 Newcastle (claimer)

The first two in the market appear to have this between them.

If they do, the other place should go to Bonnie Prince Blue (2.34 a place at the moment)

Atlantic Beach may be a handicap winner dropped into a claimer but the weights say he is 7 pounds 'wrong' with the front two, and is worth laying imho.

Currently 7.4

No point in laying 7.4 in a 5f sprint, may as well see how it gets out of the stalls and lay it shorter if it 'pings' the lids.

Imo, both the front two will have to run 7 or more pounds below their mark for Atlantic Beach to win.

I'm going in - both tills !! Laugh

If Monalini or The Nifty Belle win it, the form book can go on the bonfire and the official handicapper will need a suicide pill.

I wouldn't care if it ended up 5-5, all I wanted was a facking goal so I could trade out at roughly double the odss I layed.

3-40

Fav looks good to win here to win here, but I'm not a fan of even money shots in sellers. Ra Junior should get in the frame at around Evens for a place.
Joinedupwriting is taken to fill the other place, 2.92 now, but should drift a bit

The lay, for  those so inclined, looks to be Applaude at 8.2 Happy

===============================================================================
3-50

Fremen looks nailed on given the weights here, but once, again, evens in a  claimer is not my idea of a win bet.

Bolodenka (1.84 a place) and Baltimore Jack (2.6 a place) look to be the most likely horses to fill the frame.

Despite being backed overnight from 12/1 to roughly half those odds, King Of The Moors looks like a lay to me. Happy
 
The rest of the field belong on a trailer en route to the glue factory.

(Now watch one of them go and win it) Laugh

WITHDRAWN

Ra Junior should get in the frame at around Evens for a place.

Shortened to 1.73 because the jolly was taken out, but got 3rd.

Joinedupwriting is taken to fill the other place, 2.92 now, but should drift a bit

UNPLACED

The lay, for  those so inclined, looks to be Applaude at 8.2

layed it at 4.0, nowhere to be seen, unlike the 4 racegoers who were dancing the Conga 20 yards past the winning post.  Laugh

FOOTBALL I don't understand how the betting works [smiley:crazy][smiley:crazy]  Before a match starts, the score is obviously 0-0. I layed the draw tonight (3.45) on the Almeria v Real Sociedad match. 

I looked in at half time, the score was 1-2, Real Sociedad were leading, but the draw, despite one team being a goal up and it being half way through the match, was only 3.5 ?!?!?!?!?!

I went off downstairs again and came back when there was about 10 minutes left. The draw was still as low as 5.3.

So I decided to wait a few minutes.

With 3 minutes left, the draw was out to 8/1, and Real Sociedad were 1.12 on the screen. I decided to lay Real Sociedad. I put in 1.12, stuck in the amount and clicked on submit.

'Your bet will be placed in 3 seconds' I think it said. 

When the screen came back on, they were 1.14, and my lay had not been taken.

At the very instant I changed the odds to 1.14,  betting was facking suspended.

Almeria, the coonts, had equalised.

Unfortunately, this happened before I took tonights medication, so I passed SEETHING at about 100 m.p.h. and got into INCANDESCENT for about 10 seconds before MELTDOWN got the better of me.

I stormed out to the garden with a cigar, but spat it out, and one of my lawnmowers is now somewhere over the field at the back of the house. I shall have to find it in the morning.

I'm fully medicated and calm now. Happy

2-45 Yarmouth (claimer)

Strike A Deal (2.84) and Indian Valley (5.5) look good for the first 2 to get home.

The next 3 in the betting are much of a muchness, with Hayek looking very much like an All Weather hoss.  He must have some ability or Jarvis would have got rid of him by now, but as I'm guessing he'll prefer polytrack, I'm going to lay the beast here for a place at 2.94

Newmarket-by-the-sea bookies have paid dearly there for going odds against the favourite, it won easily.
