Come on semi finals what you got left ?

fack off

Ecclestone 90 odd average on here

thought he ran like a drain on first viewing tonight and got gifted a semi final place when those in front of him came together at the 3rd (will obviously rewatch races sometime)

draw looks as good as he could really have hoped for

lol

farley cost me 4 bags getting up tonight...and i deserve every bit of it after giving the dog an awful sl4gging

have metro jack left and thats it,the place money would be nice but im on 1st 4 and i just know what will happen if he makes the final,after my biggest bet being on the dog that done the clock 1st round its been written in the stars that for me that this derby sucks eggs.

Nothing ,and less than that in  interest tbh


Could not actually give a flying **** what wins it ,was already to book flight tickets had spy made it

I would rather have steel nails driven thru my sack then to go now

ecclestones a fkin rag

(you owe me a pint for that pf)

my mate who has our dogs went off on a mad one at me the other night for suggesting he could win it, he absolutely despises the dog (i do too tbh but that could soon change)

done a couple of quid tonight and lost roxholme ted which i expected from the make up tonight (knew farloe trent would nause him early ) got 50/1 metro jack and small 12/1 crokers champ left and they draw the same semi

pmsl case

im guessing youre not loving crokers draw zola? admittedly he should get across but a msd break and hes got issues im thinking...

would have preferred 3 or 4 pat as i think he breaks better from the middle but even off a missed break he should still front. im thinking/hoping they turn 5 from 1 and then both should qualify no prob.

Kincraig Rory 700       
Ecclestone 46       
Aero Nemesis 16       
Droopys Ward 90

Green up.

the only question you should ask yourself KoD "is aero nemesis or ecclestone shorter in price than i think they should be at this stage?"

if the answer is yes,then you green up,but even then there are different stages of "greening up" depending on how "wrong" you think their respective prices are.

I would be worried about how Aero went to pick up last night - he folded up a lot earlier than usual.  I think this semi-final will really test his endurance   Eccleston just doesn't look good enough.

Zola, did Trent do Ted? Know Trent clipped Brianna on the inside. Ted didn't look right to me.

4 left, Nemesis, Crokers, Trent and Netty. Backed Nemesis 4 times now from 40/1 downwards and very nice win. Very happy with Crokers or Trent. Netty just a money-back saver, but could be topping up. Most impressed with him last night

I thought Jordans Brianna went wrong without any contact but then i was hardly paying much attention

yes woody he bumped ted on the run up

Anyone got a view on early paced runners not lasting the comp as well as the more staying types.

I know this probably sounds pretty naive but as LH stated above i watched the Aero Nemesis race again today and he seemed to do a hell of alot of running and could well lose his early "zip" after last nights run and if that is the case i doubt he will be staying on should he not ping?

PB sounded confident saying there was more to come from MTN which is nice to hear.

mind the net is the fastest dog left without doubt. i think he is better from 5 or 6 but he seems to be holding his line from 3 and 4 fairly well in fairness. slightly tricky make up for him saturday but his all round pace should see him through

Mind the net has deffo come forward trainer has done a great job thus far...

Nemesis was on 3 legs after line cramped badly ,must be a worry for conns ..

Crokers been very consistent a brave run last night ...

Banana, think Nemesis should be okay. Think he's won over further in Ireland and didn't break like he can from T3 last night. Pie in the sky all this strong dogs do best. As seen on another thread, early motivation often lands the Derby. Strong dogs like Vanrooney, Sidarian Teejay came unstuck last night and don't think the staying types left like Ward, Kincraig, Salad and Chicken as good and may struggle. They must surely have surpassed all connections expectations already.

PS Salad and chicken sound like my lunch today!

Agree Case, Netty looks red-hot presently, peaking at the right time and now his Scottish Derby conqueror Holdem Spy out, could be the one

just been asked to do the Plate outright and heats for somebody but not sure i can muster up the motivation after last night

there are a couple of great bets in the plate heats pf just waiting for all the firms to price up

really zola? i was of the same mind as pf and couldnt be bothered,am feeling a bit under the weather anyway but youre forcing my hand a bit now

i had better get working so

only pp and hills up pat and at their prices i am defo playing but want the others to go up first so i can share the love !!!

Of the opinion I've seen better Plates

lol,have to say the very first dog i looked caught the eye,always a good hook into a comp!

You could be right PF. Brianna eased at the bend and edged off. Should have been clear especially if Trent and Ted came together

jesus wept, just started looking at the plate, zola is spot on, some books off their heads no doubt they'll get away with it though

Think Mesut fav but disappointing for my money. Cant not have a bet though. Like Zola, waiting for others and get best prices. Think i'm edging towards one, Not top four in betting and joint 5th fav or so with about 7 others!

its amazing how wrong they get it to be honest and as you say pf they will probably get some miracle escape

What are these vastly over-priced dogs then. Come on, give us a clue and spill the beans?

all aboard Ryanair to Gatwick tomorrow morning it is

it doesnt work that way woody no beans EVER get spilt until im on lol

Short-list of 4 at the prices, for me

Cant have Mesut, far too inconsistent at the start

Alba fast trial but hit-and-miss starter too. Think I've missed the price Paudie

fkin christ i really think i am seeing things - pmsl at these prices

Wasn't Leamaneigh Turbo and Ballymac Niall injured very recently. If so, must be okay now?

Blackrose Vic 
Outsider of the party at 600

Thought I was seeing things when Vic bolted out and led Crokers for a long way last night!

Also last night, Nemesis soon settled it and Thatchers Champ turned second like I said. Couldn't hold his pitch run-in though, close for qualifying places behind the winner. Could have been a 34/1 f/c

An orderly queue was formed in front of Henwood's board after Crokers Champ won!

I see nobody's mentioned the hurdles, not surprised. Ungenuine lot and beat each other for fun. I'm not remotely interested

Think they've deleted pf's last post?

When you were there on Tuesday woody did you see any sign of a race-punt on Ecclestone?

Was watching the market moves first two semis, like I said they couldn't give Rooney and Spy away, but didn't pay as much attention second two semis. Do know you could have got 6/1-11/2 Ecclestone early morniing, though. Dunno what price he opened but short I reckon. When I looked, steady at 7/2 but noticed he returned 3/1 so yes, deffo plenty of money for him

strange dog ecclestone...  on his home form he should have been gone long time ago... i dont think he's got near 28.50 at sp once.
I was a huge price before his flying trial but he seems to be one of those dogs that likes the don, like impact and laughill george (pre injury) last yr who just take off there.

Having been filled in very quickly after that 28.27 and then again by not taking down his prices with the withdrawal of westmead chris (school boy error-i took all the others down)... iv been watching him fearing the worse.

But he seems to find trouble in almost every race so far then runs a blinder to run on and qualify.    Gonna be tough this week tho if he gets much trouble to run on and qualify with this lot.  Im hoping 5+1 qualify and then a blanket finish with the other 4 involved.

He opened 6/1 in Hills. at least that was available twenty mins before the off.  His price reduced steadily from there so there was obviously some optimism.  Misplaced though.  Thanks.
