Now that the jumps are creeping back do we have a Saturday thread?

The future's Purple imo [;)]

A few regulars seem to have gone awol, which is a pity as the weekend thread was always good for a read

SILMI 3.20 MR of interest

Well Im big on Swing Bill to plunder the big race. Not many horse win after making a mistake at the water and with some extra schooling i think he will win today before going on to better things.

GL

You have got to fancy the chances of First Lieutenant at Navan,his bumper win at Gowran was a joy to behold absolutely powering away in the soft ground,form been franked by the second and think Navan will be right up his street.gl.

Few bets for me today...

Ascot

I'm A Dreamer
Theskens Theory
Imperial Guest, Surour, Mias Boy + Advanced

Haydock
Valery Borzov
Cheveton

Market Rasen
Ellerslie George

Ruthnoise in the last at Market Rasen

9/4 isn't big for a horse who hasn't run for a year and a half but I suspect this one will be much better than a mark of 115 in time. Ran quickly three times after coming over from France for the Pipe stable in early 2009 (including in the Ballymore at Cheltenham) but now moved to Henderson who does really well with mares. On the basis that it may have taken time for the horse to acclimatise, and it presumably had a problem after the last race, it is now with a man who can get them fit after a lay off I will take a chance this horse is much better class than these animals. 

On the flat I think Leceile is a massive price each way at Haydock in the fillies handicap and I think it may be worth throwing a couple of quid at this one. Her form this year isn't great but if she was completely gone they would have retired her as she already has black type. Last August she was second in a listed class 1 handicap at Goodwood off a mark of 87 and after a few poor runs this year she is now down to 82. First time out she didn't run too badly at Chester and then next time in a hot handicap at Epsom she pulled too hard, was held out very wide of the field for the first few furlongs before getting into a competition for the lead and it was no surprise that all the leaders that day ended up finishing out the back after going too fast. Last time they held her up in a mile race on firm ground and she never got competitive, I could be in danger of over analysing it but they way they ran her there compared to how she normally runs (front runner, prominent) it smacked of not today thank you, the handicapper obviously wasn't impressed either dropping her 5lbs for her last run so all in all job done.

Those previous races were all against the colts and today is the first time she races against her own sex since the Goodwood listed handicap. The race today is high on quantity and very low on quality with very few class 3 horses in the field and I don't believe she should be the price she is (65 for the win 10 for the place). As one of only a few front runners and drawn where she is near the far rail on the bend, she should be ridden more prominently today in which case she will trade far lower in running. This post is probably going to give her the kiss of death but there you go.. 

I have also had a saver on All Annalena in the same race as she has been brought along slowly this year and her mark looks attractive compared to her German form. Another one that has been running in better company against the colts (there are no Senates or Spanish Dukes in here) she is also overpriced at 28/1 with B.365.

Great shout PFt!!!!!!!!!

and harchibald!

nice one lads.

Well done Harchibald, PFT, great prices. Enjoyed the racing today, really good mix.

Wd lads!!

The regulars have all gone purple due to bf ruining this place.

Purple forum doesn't work for me, tried to get it fixed but to no avail. It's something to do with my account as I've tried it with loads of pc's and still no dice. Very odd problem.

Not interested in funding Mr Desmond myself

Plus I have enough different passwords to last me a lifetime

I dont actuallt bet over there, just use the forum to chat to the good lads that left here & TD_Gunner.

Couldn't access the purple forum myself.Thought you had to bet on there regularly for access?

Hi lads,hope your well,jump season must be looming,most of us on Purple now,gave up on this site tbh.CV be intrested to know what exactly the problem is ?  laters[;)]

Morning tt, how did they do on purple forum yesterday, lots of winners?

Morning Soul,yeah a few,trev did a frankie bet for fun,doubles and trebles etc,paid over a grand for a small outlay.How are you ?

down reported

Morning teetee how chew?

This is the error I get every time I try to reply in the purple forum. I am of course logged in and I've tried this from a few PC's and no dice. Purple support can't help either.

You need to log in to the **** Forum to use this feature. Please go to the **** site, log in and click on the Forum link on the top Navigation bar to access the Forum.

All good here CV,hope you are well[;)]  right try this, http://www.****.com/UI/Default.aspx

log in,then click forum at the top of de page

b e t d a q

That's what I normlally do, I use .com it gives me an error if I try to use .co.uk

I can login fine on .com and get into the forum. I just get the error when trying to post a reply. I used to be able to post there but then this crazy error popped up at the end of last season. Odd indeed.

it sounds to me your getting timed out for some reason,very odd,have you tried using other quack site addresses ?

quack site addresses?

google quack,and you will see about 3 or 4 different site addresses try them all[;)]

well done harch and pft. if anybody fancies it ill be back next weekend :)
Come on t t get the team back.

Abbott hope you are well[;)] tbh,the move had been coming for a while,the banning of AR started it,just because some low life s c u m bag didn't like him, bf banned him,then when we had the numerous down grades on this forum ,which were a disaster, i'd had enough,so the move was only a matter of time,in fact it was a godsend,everything over on Purple runs smoothly,rarely get any problems,and the people of there are a great bunch,no @rseholes.So i for one won't be coming back,will pop in now and again,but thats it.Good luck to you and the others in the forthcoming jumps season,laters

No luck teetee, I'm stuck here. I still think the saturday threads real home is here. No @rseholes turn up in there. I agree most over the other discussion threads are ruined time and again by clowns and their "facts".

Cheers t t come to think of it I think I tried the purple one at the end of last season when somebody mentioned it and couldnt get in. Tell everybody hello anyway.

turnip turns is a filthy weasel and i'm glad he doesn't post here much anymore.

You're both guesser's imo

Talking about guessers where's C2 these days?

No idea CV,sorry to hear about you two not being able to log in,mental that[smiley:crazy]

shrewdies thread

I wish turnip turns and far from trouble would stay over here tbh, they are just a couple of slimy g a y ers who do nothing but attention seek over at purpledaq. Always scrounging tips off the decent guys over there and then tying to take the credit. tt will be saying next that it was thanks to him that we all ended up on Kansai Spirit for the old boro cup at 14/1 next! As for that fft...........well, words escape me!   

y d c

Not backed Franekl for the guineas so put him in some acca's .. does anyone have some certs to make the odds longer ?

so far done

Frankel
Chelsea for PL
Hanagan Flat Jocj champ
Europeans in Ryder Cup 

.. pays 10.5/1

also done a variation with the USa which bumps it to 14/1..

any others to get this beast up to 30/1 or so .. ?

Prob is over here CV, whatever they have done to this forum has totally messed it up, there have been too many times when I have tried to post and haven't been able to get the 'Post Reply' box up,this forum is also dreadfully slow, and to cap it all, I 've found now that my posts are getting submitted before I've even finished typing th

Really, I didn't know that bear, you sure it's not just bugs that will/are being ironed out?

My problem is I can't reply at all over on purple. I just get an error saying I need to log in. can't get it fixed no matter what I try. So I'm stuck here. I don't have the option like you lads.

CV,Bear is correct,this "forum" has a lot to do with it

It works better than purple. Since I can post a reply.

purple helpdesk didn't even reply to my email about my forum problem.

Can't we set up or join a "neutral" forum for the saturday thread? It really adds to the enjoyment of saturdays racing.

we'll just have won on hear.

i'll contribute some losers towards it 

Gunner

I think the thread also needs someone who would rather use 100 words when ten will do so I am in

I can contribute losers too Gunny. Odds on ones and all. I've a feeling Ballyfitz loyalty will continue to go unrepaid.

Bear

Had a chuckle at that earlier, very good.
