First bet is in the 4:00 @ Beverley which is a very tricky handicap to say the least. That said I'm going to plump for Tommy Docc @ 13/2 with most books. It has to give 22lbs to the FAV but has by far the superior form in my book and although the weight giveaway is huge I think it's value at the price.
As for my other bet I have to go for Elarqam in the 4:10 @ Salisbury. Has the best form imo and gets the age allowance albeit the evens I was hoping for has gone and I will take the 10/11.
I will also stick a couple of bob on the double but as my staking plan stands if one of the two wins I will be in profit. Obviously if both are beat I've lost a few quid.
g/l all for the day.

I would never try and second guess you stewarty, each thread you put up tends to surprise me when you reveal what you are backing, the race you have chosen today at Beverley looks like it could be a tactical nightmare unless the horse that has gone from Stoute to Johnston is sent from the front, they all appear to want to stalk or come from behind and given the weight difference and the fact the horse is in form the 3yo looks a far more likely winner than the other three to me, but at prohibitive odds wouldn't want to be involved, best of luck with TD
agree corky,even though only 4 runners it would take a brave man to bet with any confidence and as for elarqam,the same applies.
gl all the same anyway stewy

That surprises me Corky given that's what the forum should be all about....sharing views.
Craig, I cannot answer questions if I'm not at home.
Meanwhile I got all 13/2 Tommy Docc in my tickets and surprisingly evens in a couple of shops for Elarqam. Now Craig I know you like to know about my private life so on my way home I nipped into The Globe intending to have a quick pint but met in with an old buddy and had three of what I can only describe as the best pint in Aberdeen. They even put it in special pint glasses....San Miguel.....bubbles everywhere and so refreshing.
I notice I bagged the 13/2 which is now 4s with one book which is always a help if it wins but only time will tell. I will get back to you re: Big D shortly because something is screaming for me from my fridge...

Think you have misunderstood stewarty, it is indeed about sharing views and opinions, my point was that I would not be able to guess what horse you would put up, unlike some people where you know they always follow a stable or a jockey or the favourite or the rank outsider, you surprise with the variety of the selections that you post.
Hope you were on foot today and not behind the wheel...?

He got a new one of Biggus.
Tattoo Dom?
Hope you were on foot today and not behind the wheel...? Foot Corky. I don't drink and drive and I have the added bonus of only a ten minute walk to hit the city centre which as you will know is awash with 'bookmaker' shops.
That said, and I've said it many times, when the £2 spin limit comes in my trolling the shops will be severely curbed.

Will you become reacquainted with the library when they close the shops?
Yes, he meant he'd had the best pint in Edinburgh but typed Aberdeen for some reason.
Oh okay, thought you were from Edinburgh for some reason.
Strangely enough I have a photo appointment near Aberdeen in a couple of weeks ! Long bloody drive up the A9 beckons !

No at Fowlsheugh, doing some imaging for a Dolphin Conservation team and will be snapping Dolphins and Porpoises over 2 days up there for their advertising.
That link is spot on btw Delta. It's A Belhaven pub and likewise Ma Cameron's whom I happen to know the manager. I will try and bag a couple of freebies next time I visit there because these glasses keep bubbling until the last drop!
Dom, just as a matter of interest did you ever ride at Edinburgh?
How old do you think I am lol
I rode a few at Musselburgh but never any good.

I was a member there for two years. I never actually saw him ride there but Greville Starkey called it 'the wall of death'!
Elarqam in the 4:10 @ Salisbury. Has the best form imo
Yes, and form LTO in a higher grade.
It'll be a turn up if Plumatic beats it.

First time this has happened to me in seventeen years. Site cream crackered but at least I'm on....win or lose.

It has to give 22lbs to the FAV but has by far the superior form in my book
stewy..how iyo has it got superior form than a horse rated 22lbs better?

steve, I think you may have got mixed up. the FAV is rated 22lbs inferior.
As it stands a profit if Elarqam wins or down a few quid.
Shocking run from Elarqam. Some say the bigger the certainty the bigger the certainty that it'll get beat.
Never at the races.

a fabre bringing over a horse from france, was enough to make that even money shot very risky, some of these
frankel horses are useless, cant string a couple of wins together. unlucky

It's the bit after they quicken that matters Willie.

That generally sums it up Dr C. Forget about the winner , inferior horses finished in front of it. Sometimes you have to take it on the chin and then I think to myself.....can I back this beast again?

it was 1.6 after 3f
steve, you have the T.Shirt. How many times have you seen a horse break well, lead, the price contracts immediately and it falters.

Nothing wrong with the bet Stewarty, it simply ran a stinker.
it went 1.6..hardly never at the races comment.
at the races = under 1.55
hth
hth
Went 1.6 after three furlongs?
Sounds like somebody knows what they're looking at. Lol.

Didn't see the ''Elarqam still lame'' thread explains the run.
Not as much as you lost backing 1.6 in running Willie.

went 1.6 and never at the races and laid ziltch? you seem like a bit of a shrewdie.
ps..i dont back away from track.

Might be a stupid question, but how can a horse who made the running and led until 2f out never be at the races ?
cos it were a stupid comment from a stupid person.
domino14, surely you read what I wrote earlier concerning that?
I do hope you're not trying to wind me up. Lol.

No need for the tittle tattle lads it was me who lost a few quid. The only saving grace is that had my first one won the air would be blue!
Never mind your loss stewarty.
Willie is definitely upset. I wonder how much he lost?
