Little Big race Ascot 4:10

Pity the Aga no longer around.  He clearly needed some help on the breeding side.

Even though his style of running suggests unlikely I have chanced the 15/4 Calandagan to win by + 1.5L

Win or lose the price will entice and this one did.

Think if he wins will win easy by a few lengths. Best to be brought wide and not get close to another in the finish.

either refused @ epsom or the winner went again...either way 5/4 is a lay

why I said brought wide wonders

as Segal said last night though long straight at Epsom suited JB.  If he beats Calandagan at Ascot he's a very good horse. Don't think he will if Barca gets it right.

They said that about Park Top.  In fact, they said there was nothing on either side.
Question:  For the knowledgeable.  -  Has a seven year old ever won the KG & QE?

Matt the mouth has just spoken to an on course bookie who had posted in front of his stall the French horse boost price with another certainty ......say it all to me.    Lay bet

Honcho.   No 7 year old has ever won KG

Kalpana.   Forget it

Imagine sat next to AOB on a long haul flight.   .   [

  Twas no doubt a pleasure

Brilliant.  Beats sitting beside a fattie.

How many names will AOB thank after he wins this one?

the line is 4-5.5 loyal...winners are welcome

moore making the pace for continuous

massive own goal by coolmore

Looked like approx 1.25L to me

kingsnake, have you ever bought a formbook?

"Posted too soon"    Yeah with your ability way better to post after the race.

Ladybird books only swifty

nobody wanted a doordle

I doubt he can read. One day he'll realise form trumps breeding every time. I learnt that on first day at school.

If you are on a front runner you most definitely want a dawdle!

no you want an even pace

slow pace suits turn of foot ie the fav

I am a rare critic of AOB but what he was doing there doesn’t compute.  Of course I suppose he follows orders from “the lads”.

wd howard

traded some out shorter but still + 4 figs

thanks wonders

I watched the re-run and the horses stride pattern and head carriage looked wrong until the important part of the race

nice howard, pretty much went to your script, wd

Class Howard.

So did its distaff line. 

thanks guys I would have let the whole bet run but i've seen the vid of the trainer & horse in the stables with the horse doing nothing but trying to bite him. He said if you think he's bad now you should have seen him before gelding. Not one to trust 100% in a battle but obviously tons of ability.  I said last year this horse will show people how good City of Troy was.

When did you get the 7/4 Howard?

Well done Howard

BTW,well done

says time and date on post irons

Clearly with a bookmaker then Howard

Can't bet big on here irons cos if I lose it would take me 10 months to deposit another £1000. 

I thought so.
Well done

Ta.

Were THE LADS involved in todays Tactics ?

no doubt a donation to the ukraine orphans fund on the way

Never been beaten by a bum and a half before

anyone called u a C  mitolo

nope

they wouldnt becuase its untrue and they would be too scared coward

untrue  b0ll0x    scared unlikely unless you are a psychopath

u make pointless and nasty comments to people on here. Anyone doing the same in real life is a sociopath. I've met a few.

you are a fascist and putin fanboy-the nastiest mass-mudering dictator since stalin and you think hes great

hence my animus

dont like conspiracy mugs or fascist sympathisers thats all

"you are a fascist and putin fanboy-the nastiest mass-mudering dictator since stalin and you think hes great"   that's b0llox where's you're proof of anything remotely like that.  He leads Russia. They seem to want him and Trump talks to him ( at the moment )  NATO expansion caused the war imo.    But the main point is like Toby YOU use what you don't like about somebody to try to hurt them on a forum.  I can take it. It's just a forum not real life.  But to me it makes you a nasty piece of work. I believe many many others on here think the same about you.  Sociopaths don't care about that.  You likely don't care about Ukraine or it's people anything you can use to try to upset people your game.

Try to refrain from engaging. 'mtolo' is extremely infantile, and a time waster. Bin!

youve said putin is wise and logical. you could have said evil and kleptoctatic but you chose to be as nice as possible. he says ukraine is full of nazis, doesnt mention nato, but you do in your efforts to support him. 'he leads russia'. he abolished the constitution to use the state for his own aims and is president for life. he wrote about it in his own testament where he lays out his plan to re-unite russia with ukraine, and some others, like belarus. you ignore this, or dont want to know

and ive been droning on about putin for years (see politics froum) so your accusation is false

i could bore on but nobody is interested

and just to disappoint you im very cheery and popular and have a great time with many friends of all 3 sexes 

A lot of sociopaths are initially popular / charismatic  often work in sales etc. As soon as you get to know them though....

Knowing your enemy is halfway to beating him.  Appreciating his qualities, such as they may be, is part of it.  It doesn’t mean you like or agree with what he does.

you seem to have got to know a good many sociopaths

where you in the same hospital?

plenty found in betting shops
