I backed Ouija Board for the Oaks @ 90 - the biggest price she ever traded at on Betfair (no one else got 90 either, juts me
 ). |

By:
Clan Royal @ 20/1 (rider dropped whip)
Garrison Savannah @ 25/1 (must have been 1.01 after the last) Argentina 25/1 (after they got whipped by Cameroon in the Group stage, Maradonna drugged up and thrown out of final) .... all finished 2nd |

Imperial Commander for the Gold Cup at 20/1 and 16/1 few days after 09 King George - couldn't get what I wanted to on him so came up with a strategy to get more running on at the price and had 3 ew doubles and ew treble with Menorah in the Supreme and Forpadydepasterer in Champion Chase. Big Zeb cost me a fortune :D
Biggest ever loss was Last Instalment in the RSA, did a fortune on him. |

By:
biggest win at fishers cross in the albert bartlett this year...couldn't help myself and was delighted when tony only had to show the horse the cane...
biggest loss was rooster booster in the aintree hurdle when johnson dropped the whip on the run in...a sick joke |

05 Apr 13 15:37 Worst miss: Marling 16/1, 1000 Guineas. I'm with you there (should have got it in the stewards room)but that pain pales into insignificance compared to my Six Perfections agony.  |

got 33-1 rough quest when the weights came out for 1996 national,he won it as 7-1 fav. thought I had done my money when they said he was unlikely to run about a week before the race. thank god they changed their mind.
|
|
By:
Probably One Man for the Hennessey, quite a lot EW at 14-1 the day the weights came out. He had about 10-1 if I remember right, running off something like 130. Went off 4-1 fav and never came off the bridle. That was my best ever day for sure, backed 5 winners in all.
Most frustrating also in the same race. Take your pick from Gingembre at 33-1 (finished 2nds, convinced he would have won but for a deluge on the morning of the race) and Jodami at 14-1, who somehow managed to get beat off 10-2 before going through the rest of the season unbeaten and trotting up in the Gold Cup. A few more years of therapy and I may come to terms with it. |

Mine was £40 win at 25/1 on Celtic Swing for the 2000 Guineas - lost very unluckily at 4/5.
On the other hand I did have £50 on Ballanchine for the Oaks at 20/1 and £50 on Workforce for the Derby at 20/1. A good bet bet was on Diminuendo for the Oaks at 13/2. The largest ante post bet I ever had was on Nashwan for the Derby after he won the 2000 Guineas - anything bred to stay 12 furlongs that wins a Guineas has to be a major bet for the Derby. |
|
By:
My first ever antepost was Authorized at 33/1, and hence I'm an addict now
 Other notable ones off the top of my head: Comply or Die @ 130 (only for £3, the rest at 25/1) Was @ 60 average Odds (pretty big bet by my standards too) Was 25/1, Camelot 3/1 and Fame and Glory 3/1 in treble (large) and trixie (damn f&g) Frankel at 33/1.... for the bloody derby  |

Zara Phillips odds 200 on here SPOTY

By:
My biggest price was Celtic Shot - 1998 Champion hurdle at 20/1. Most won was on Frankel - 2000 gns at evens.

£250 @ 33/1 on Clan Royal for 2004 GN.
Headway and 5th halfway, blundered and rider lost whip 26th, led approaching 2 out, hit last, wandered left run-in, headed and no extra last 100yds (op 12-1) Should have won - but lost( I lost my voice shouting !!) |

By:
Shaun Murphy to win world snooker championship in 2005 190s on here, 15 ew at 120s and 20 ew at 80s after beating chris small btw i no it aint horse related, had denman 50 ew at 25s for rsa hurdle b4 he beat karanja.

By:
Best was Cape Verdi at 14/1 to win Guineas - picked up over £6k. And Kings Best at 25/1 for 2000 Guineas
Worst was lumping on Hedgehunter for the National - the year before it won it :(. David Casey got it beat off 10st 8lb ish |
|
By:
best was Lillie Langtree for small amount @50s&48s for the Cornation Stakes, given how the SP ended up when she won.
Worst was taking 40s on St. Nic for the Derby as he was drifting at an alarming rate, having already had a good bet at 20s&33s before his maiden&after maiden, i think i was refusing to believe he was crocked at the time. Nearly fell into the same trap with Pour Moi for the Arc but resisted thank god! my fav loser was Born to Sea last year, i managed to take all the 40s &36s on offer for the 2000G as he hit the front in his listed race 1st time out. was delighted with myself right up until he started pulling for his head on the way down to the start, knew i was cooked then. |

In the past, tote trio on highest drawn in sprints at Thirsk. Esp combination trios, once collected £700 in one race

Also Imperial Commander at 20-1 for the GC.
Much smaller stakes, but probably the best price I ever got was Sea the Stars for the Arc at 14-1. |

Orfevre 16/1 E/W for the Arc for my biggest ever collect on a horse.

c100/1 Sizing Europe Champion Hurdle when he cruised to the bottom of the hill then went out like a light. Got injured that day & subsequent events lead me to feel he'd have won alright.
25/1 Back in Focus 4 miler is a happier memory. |
