Canter,some price in the end,very well done Wildman and backers.

Not a shred of improvement left in that horse as the person who will purchase it will find out to their cost.

I have to say very impressive, welldone wildman

not a shred after 2 runs?
Mug post! |

Hopefully Mincer laid off his grand ensuring a nice profit.....hopefully.

By:
Mug post? I suggest you go back over the last three years and look at the horses he has ran. After a run and max two runs they go backwards at a rate of knots.
Just in case your too tick to be able to do this, i will start you off. 1.Rapid Applause 2.I will excel |

Hopefully you did not get paint on the laptop or the TV Frank, when you halted domestic duties to pick up just about the best price in running even with picture delays.

WD Wildman, stuck to your guns.

Wildman and the lads currently on the lash in Thurles.......lock up your Grandmothers...

Wildman tends to be put off by tidal market drifts (even though he mentioned an expected drift himself). Hopefully he stuck to his guns. He could drive home from the Ploughing in a new Case tractor this evening!
I must say it was a proper effort by the winner, big step up on what he achieved in Dundalk (even allowing for the missed break there). I'd agree with BWS that he was far more gunned than his opponents (impossible to come to any other conclusion based on the yards previous runners) with a view to selling. He's entitled to make big bucks after today. |

Bigwillystyle,
The two example you give are not very good. Rapid Applause improved with every run as a 2yo and ran the best race of his life on his fourth start. He probably hasn't trained on as a 3yo, but that's not the trainer's fault. I Will Excel ran to a similar level of form in the first six runs of his life until his form tailed off lately after he made a noise on his first run back, which means his wind is probably gone rotten. Any better examples? You also mention that he sold some "duds" that regressed, I only know of two horses that he sold, Letters Of Note has improved a stone on RPRs since she was sold and Aggression has only had one run since being sold. Any more evidence to back up your claims?! |

Nice to see your keeping your eagle eye on the thread Bassanio even if you made little or no Contribution to it, Blue de VEGA hit a high of 6.2 in running ,if truth be told i almost missed the 4oc off time, for the record i did 3 doors and a Radiator with a little help from the wife.
|
|
By:
I made no contribution before as I had no view.
I was congratulating you on achieving top price as unless you are a very big player 6.2 is not much more than 4/1, so you played very well. Hats off to wildman who always lays it on the line beforehand and the drift worked very well for him. |
|
By:
How wrong can anyone be ?
Hopefully i didnt put anyone off it, in all fairness it was hugely impressive. Well done Dan, hopefully you kept the faith. Couldnt get laying it so i finished up backing 3 losers, so a bad race for me. |

By:
My apologies; i thought you were being sarcastic,
|

By:
Fair play, Mincer. A lot more dignified than easygold (aka the King of the Aftertimers) who weighed in with a dig after the result having not given an opinion before the race (surprise surprise).
|
|
By:
Thank you joe, i didnt bother even replying to easygold, couldnt be bothered. King of the aftertimers is putting it mildly.
|

Easygob only posts for the benefit of jockeys Joe....just in case they are looking in.

indeed mincer, horses make fools of us all....welldone Wildman.

By:
No I have no reason to be biting at you.
I know you would follow wildman and a few others. I just like the idea that the Mrs is told the paintbrush or roller is put to one side so a bet can be had - domestic bliss. Surprised it was as big as 6.2 in running given it was well placed throughout so hopefully there was a decent amount at 4/1 up to this ceiling. Easygold doing his usual I see - Not checked how many jockeys he is slagging or giving after the race advice to on the main forum today yet. |

This fellow won as he liked today , a fine stamp of a horse , got across from a bad draw very easily and though there was one individual who was a little unlucky , won like a good horse . I have a feeling he'll win a few more before the others catch up with him next year. Oh by the way top marks to the jockey , a peach of a ride.

Well done winners,We managed to get the F/C up too
 |
|
By:
Very well done Wildman.
|
|
By:
Fair play to ya Wildman.I think you deserve a boom on this one.
 |
|
By:
Aftertimer??? far from it.......... If so call punters??? want to guess in these sort of races go ahead........ But how a punter can go to the length the way Mincer did is just wrong..........
Next you will be asking me to put bets on for you.......... Pick a race where there is form and I will give an opinion....... Which I have done many of times in the past........ But now this site is not for me as much as it use to be......... If I comment on a rider....... it`s for a damn good reason....... |

Looks more like a mangled fart than a boom Kingrat
WD Wildman - juicy one |
|
By:
Easygold to be fair to Mincer he was laying at 2/1 rather than the 7/2 sp,not too far off double the odds which is good going,the market was well read by him and Wildman both anticipating a drift,TTK,s original price ended up near also. Good thread.
|
|
By:
Mincer said the horse was no good and it won't win. Deserved a few brickbats for that alone!
I actually laughed out loud when Easygold said "give us a wave"......i'd say he meant it in a light-hearted way.... |
|
By:
Pa....... seriously give us a break......

Easygold, it's very rarely that people bet when they aren't guessing to some degree. Educated guessing is a very important part of winner finding, although it's far from foolproof.
I wouldn't have fancied the winner for quite a number of reasons / educated guesses . 1. A wide draw which is factual 2. An inexperienced rider in the context of the jockeys in the race, again factual 3. Even though it was bred to go on the ground, my guess would have been that it was far from certain to handle it, there was no proof it would handle it 4. It had AW form , no form on grass, again factual 5. An educated guess was that there would be plenty fancied against it and there was. 6. There was no guarantee it would improve from its debut, again a guess Yes this horse more than proved me wrong, a truly impressive performance so congrats to Dan and anybody else who fancied him . Out of interest could you please tell me the last bet in a horse race that you had where you weren't guessing? Thank you |

By:
I wasn't having a "go" or anything Easygold, i thought the market was well read, Roger,s point is fair enough.
|
|
By:
Mincer..... this sport is not for you ....... U didn`t fancy it......... so what horse did u have ahead of it..... Will you stop....... THIS WON`T WIN....... what gobsh1te say`s crap like that.........

By:
Well done Borneo, my old mucker.
Easygold is a prat btw. |
|
By:
Easygold, all I ask is the last bet you had that you weren't guessing, I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious.
Once you answer that question then I will be more than willing to take any stick you give me, should you fail to do so then I would be very dissapointed with you. |

mincer?you were caught with your pants down tbf.

By:
Kingrat, I got the race badly wrong , it wasn't the only race I got wrong all day. I get plenty wrong as do many others . It's hardly a question of having your pants taken down , I got it wrong and unlike others that post here, I didn't slink away and not face the music.
Easy gold has all the answers post race which is fine, that's one way of always being right . The problem is it's very hard to get bets on these days pre race never mind when they are over . Maybe he has a Dorethy Paget like relationship with his bookie, and good for him if he does. |
