WD One Shot.......been half awake most of day.......probably the sleepless nights tying to find a nap winner for team[:p]

GL with remaining selections "guys"

sorry wrong thread

cheers PB, just held on by 36 pence!!

Congratulations One Shot 2 Shot

I'm sure you will bounce back DFC.

Well Done feed the goat...  [:D]  didn`t realise you had selected today sorry.

Well done with place points DFC!

Last night I placed 3 bets on THE LOBSTER CATCHER's race......and had concluded of the 3 TLC was the one that had best chance of 3.( ONLY BETS PLACED EARLY)

Of course ....I then looked at 2 other races in morning and zeroed in on CLUB TAHITI race......and opted for the shorter odds one of 2.

As a rule I used to go for the HIGHER ODDS of 2......but when you get a bad run of no naps winning for ages there is a tendency to nap short odds ones. All to do with "confidence". Sorry "guys" for chickening out selecting that one for team!!!!![:x]

From now til end of year will be going for HIGH ODDS ones in nap and team competitions....as gotta catch Little Bobby et all before end of year

GL with selections to come .

Sorry I have been a bit distant lately, but I have alot of problems at the moment and to make things even worse my father suffered a major stroke last Tuesday and is now in the new QE, he is 87 yrs old and although he seems mentally to beaware of what`s happened there appears to be no moment to his left hand side and he is eating and drinking very little. As some of you will be aware I lost my mother on the run in to Xmas 3 years ago so it is not best time of year for me with the likehood of it happening again.

sorry to hear that pb , hope things work out for you
and your family .

PDB, sad news, I hope you can stay strong and find a way through.

Was thinking of old team mates in the comp

Nice one PDB

Sad news PRODELLBOY. My father has been having bouts of illness the last few weeks ....but not as serious as your dad. He is also 87....and normally is "active" ...so seeing him aging rapidly when he took ill brought home just how old he is. Luckily he seems to be recovered and .....though moving more slowly...he still is able to go about normal day to day activities. Mum , at 88 , has problems healthwise ...but dad has managed to cope SO FAR.

Puts racing into perspective......

Hope your dad regains powers soon PDB....best wishes.

Great start, Well Done lester [:D]

Won easily Lester ...great start !!!!

Cheers UD......I narrowed it down to 2 initially ....and for once napped the right one of 2....

For once I had a newspaper to check out races yesterday ....normally I just use inter-net ( SL etc ).....and it is "easier" to appraise a race quickly with the old-fashioned newspaper, than with inter-bet ...though if you want to go a bit more deeply into horse's background you can't beat inter-net........though often it is a case of going too deeply into race and it then all becomes a blur!

I think from tomorrow will walk down to shop and get a newspaper.....need exercise anyway!!!

GL with bets guys.

Yet another poor...poor run by  my "guess"......the weight today made a huge difference ....and 1st and 2nd were in bottom part of field....DRATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.


Sorry "guys" ......relying on rest of selections as usual .....GL again FTG  with today's shot!

Can't doa wink nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Good luck all today. have gone with Great Endeavour though the good form of N. Henderson may give long run an edge, hopefully the weight concession will swing it back my way.

Yeeeeesssss
