Two Each Way bets for me tomorrow.

3.40 Flatfoot Boogie.(25/1 at least) Down in trip, down in class but still carrying top weight in this 0 - 123 hurdle. Will love the ground and although he is a 9 year old he has very few miles on the clock. I think he is cherry ripe for tomorrow. I expect him to be prominent and you will get a good run for your money.

5.30 Argocat 10/1  Put up his best ever performance last time at Aintree and there could be more to come. Lightly raced this season and if jumping cleanly will take all the beating.
Report frankalsoran60 April 29, 2014 11:26 PM BST
ty gotchee, i thought you might like to know that 3.40 Flatfoot Boogie is 25/1 with paddy power they are offering 5places 1/4 the odds.

as mentioned in the punchestown thread..anything harry fry sends over must be looked at, his runner in the grade 1 6.05 JOLLY ALLEN won on debut(as expected) but has since been bought by jp..I don't think hes a grade 1 horse but theres no doubt hes decent or they wouldn't be here but I also think its about jp having a runner.. he could bely his odds?..but im more interested in the last were fry runs FLETCHERS FLYER,  I was @uttoxeter the day he run and had a decent punt on him as connections were confident he would win..he got out stayed by a nice sort who has since run 2nd in a grade 2,..but it was the disappointment on frys face that I remember..he was obviously disappointed ..so I think the horse can be backed today with confidence that defeat on debut was not such a surprise..and he'll have learnt a lot..as always..you don't know what you're up against..but ive lumped on..and ive backed welds in the grade 1..also hope BEAT THAT can win again..best of luck..

3.40 Flatfoot Boogie.(25/1 at least) .. THE GOTSHEE,, what a shame he would have won only for the bad mistake 3out. i backed him at odds of 25/1 to 36/1 and laid in running at 20s and 4.5 in running so a good start , well done gotshee you got your e/w money.

I must admit I'm don't fancy Cheltenian at all.On ratings alone he has an obvious chance but I think he doesn't settle well enough to get home over two and a half.My reading of the race is that he will appear there turning in travelling best and be run out of it.I've laid him.

I wouldn't be one to advocate laying blind in running off slow pictures but I do think he will trade shorter in running than his BSP.

Not sure how close to live they are but I'd guess 4 seconds plus depending on what medium your are viewing them through.If you are betting in running late on using them going out to the garden and burning your money would be less painful for you.

You would be amazed how much of a difference even a second makes...I'd when Don Poli looked a 2s on shot on RTE he was a 10/1 shot for a track player.

Sorry i,m no help Frank,thought Bayern would win last night so you are better off.
S B had a slight chance of going up A P's inside 3 out,he didn,t and wasn't too fluent 3rd and 2nd last,ended up stuck behind Apache Jack in the crucial part where winner and 2nd went past. While Lots of Memories had a bit more to give not sure he would have beaten the winner anyway unless he did go up the inside when he had that slight chance and took the bull by the horns.
WD winners.

Nice call with bumper winner.

Would not say he was outstayed the last time. He was caught for pace by a nice horse and then battled on well.

Good ride by Derek and one he does not do enough of. He made sure that it was a test.

A good meeting so far for punters with Silver Concorde the only blemish.

The Gotchee has been on form all year,great to see him follow up his Tuesday nap Sizing Europe with the long priced unlucky runner up Flatfoot Boogie,he would have won without that mistake.

We don't know how Paulie Wallnuts is doing because he doesn't put up selections before the race but he is bound to be sickened by The Gotchees winning streak.

Good to see Tony57 being so confident about a bumper horse and being right.
