Shameful imo,think I'll just go down the bookies and lose my money . Whats the point of having a bet and when it wins celebrating on here or when it gets beat having a gripe with fellow punters.End of a era.

They don't want the forum to thrive.

They just want sportsbook/roulette losers.

On a side matter surely Beckford has an excellent chance tomorrow.

Would have been a 2.5 l winner of a group 1 last time if Verbal dexterity wasnt there and that was at a distance probably too far.
Tomorrows 6 much more suitable and the way he cruised up besides 1 out last time bodes well over this trip.

Ground wont be an issue unlike his opponents who either wont handle it or are unraced on it.

Only a few others have run in a group 1 with 2 of them winning .

Unfortunately won in france but has never run with soft of any description in the going and Sioux Nation who beat our horse but on gd/fm and being by scat daddy i doubt he will confirm the placings although he does get soft ground winners .

All in all i think Beckford an excellent win and place option.

Im not going into an essay why but i think Linguistic and Stake acclaim have strong chances across the water tomorrow as well.

Its a halawa way to treat you Work rider , next thing you know they'll stop us playing " Pick the Trannie " whilst watching the Elaine show.

Laugh Noggody, Olddesperado, I have backed Beckford in his last two runs,he quite small but a trier,I think you are right about him coming back in distance as well,he looked all over the winner with a furlong to run at the Curragh.

I also like Clemmie,thought she was top class the day she won up the Curragh.

Stake aclaim, unlucky that, smart shout.

Linguistic, don't know what occurred there, poor run.

Nice winner for Aiden today, had a little bit of it.

Ye stake aclaim was very unlucky if thats the word.

Looked an all out winner but just robbed on the line,

I cant believe it only went 1.31 ?

Linguistic was never at the races and very puzzling,

Beckford was the big disapointment , 6/1 most of the day probably told the story even if there was late money,

Ran flat and never seemed comfortable,  even from the stalls pat was pushing him along to get position which i hate.

He looked to be staying on but i think that was more the class of the horse rather than him needing further.

Im guessing he was over the hill.

Anyone Know why D Mcdonagh was jocked off ?

Im guessing again its to do with his irish field comments ?

Let me down for a good few quid Old,not sure about this lad anymore, what did Declan say in the Field ?
Report olddesperado October 7, 2017 10:31 AM BST
Workrider,    he had a feature in the field where he explained how he recommended the horse to the new owners and helped broker the deal,

Further into his article he expressed doubts about his size and whether he would train on as a 3 year old.

Maybe thats not the reason but I doubt thats the way he described the animal to Newtown Anner when he recommended it to them.

Never saw Olddesperado that and I get the Field every week, he is a small horse and maybe he's been flying a little high these past few runs.

B Ellison,s horse in the ces tomorrow is interesting me.

Loves some give , improved over hurdles all winter inc over further so this 2 mile on the flat should be ideal and was always improving on the flat until last run but seems to have always needed first run and usually won at second attempt.

Only just does enough so seems to stay on right side of the handicapper in both codes and Ben Robinson is a great asset with 5 lbs.
Ellison loves his raides this side of the water and won this race only a few years ago so has to be respected.

Has a great chance @ 25/1 imo.

Segal has tipped the above horse so not really much value in anyone backing it now.
I took 25,s last night but it had been 33s.   I tried to top up but was restricted to 20 cents on sportsbook,

Never really got into the race tbh.
Was left a lot to do but probably wouldnt have been good enough anyway,

A few i fancy tomorrow,

Wholestone looked a really progressive horse last season and could be thrown in off 145 at chepstow,  4/1 looks fair.

Seamie riding the second string in the 2;25 at Newmarket looks interesting.
I thought he looked better than Zibriskie in their respective maidens and i dare say switch the jockeys and the odds switch.
Ive had a small interest on here at 12.

Biggest bet of the day though goes to Aurora Gray in the cesarewitch.

80 on here although ive taken that and waiting for some more.
12 to place is decent value too imo.

Decently treated off her form and looked a winner in her last few runs without actually managageing to get her head in front,
A fast run race over the distance tomorrow could see her get the job done.
