No fookin shyte Sherlock!!! Why do we have such rubbish information from courses and trade newspapers? |

Very sceptical about those reports. I just spoke to a friend who lives about 5 miles away and it has been raining all night with plenty of puddles on the roads; only let up about 8.30. More rain expected before racing. The Sandown grass/ground does seem to hold water, much more so than Kempton down the road.

I'm going today and I'm a bit hacked off with the crappy weather I must say.

It's dry at the track and the sun is trying to break through now so hopefully no more rain.
It's "Ladies Day" and a good few have made a sterling effort so that's always good news. ![]() |

Simon Walker used to be worth a few pounds in these races but not so much recently Still might stick him in the Placepot at his double figure price |

I had the winner as a placepot banker but didn't have any other bets.
£80.00 to get a lounge badge and they serve coffee in a paper cup. Come racing! |

Dambuster, he did indeed meet trouble going up the inside about 2f out...
I backed him in the 4place and 3place markets, so just covered my stakes |

In other news, there are blokes walking around with lipstick on and wearing fascinators.
I know I'm old school but that's really not cricket. |

At least Danny la Rue knew he was a bloke, some of these today are Cranks imo |
