Gone for -

4.00 Aintree -        Lost Glory    5 EW

Looks an open race....and hopefully at least places.

GL with bets and selections today.

looks like wildcards for foxy & jimnast, anyone want them?

They'd probably go for Character Building at Aintree lol.

sorry ud been out back now will start looking, I`m a bit distant from racing at the mo.

Have put up Character building as a wildcard for foxy looks as good as any to me. Just Need to look for one more, any suggestions please shout.

Working Title non-runner

Perhaps Quito Du Tresor 5.0 Strat. although not much of a price.

Happy with that one ud if you want to put it up, have replaced my NR

Sorry "guys" ....not even close

Well done One Shot!

well done one shot , have gone for

Great Call One Shot [:D]

Have`nt much time to go through today`s later races again, so have put up lester`s suggestion to save time, it is top rated with one site I use, so should be thereabouts.

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"

Great shout Usaidit [:D]

sorry wrong thread

Good Luck today One Shot in the daily naps, prem champ hopefully.

cheers PB, just held on by 36 pence!!

WD One Shot and Ud on promotion......See a score of over 80 points was achieved in DIV 3 ...Whowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....some scoe !!!

My form has gone off boil in comp.....but will give it my best shot in NOV and DEC to try to finish with positive score for year, as well as get winners for team[;)]


GL "guys" this month with naps and bets.

Congratulations One Shot 2 Shot

I'm sure you will bounce back DFC.

Quick off mark Feed......wd

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

Thanks chaps , about time i contributed . Have had a shocking 2 months , good luck for the rest of the week .

Well done with place points DFC!

Ernst Blofeld 2.05 Hayd - Win

Hope to continue our good start with this one.

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 .

Staying with Alan King with Salden Licht in 3-10 at Donny. Good luck all.
One Shot

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.

UD whatever happened to afterjacko (and his missus) are they still on here?

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

PDB I hope things can improve for you and yours

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

DeSSie, I don't know and wouldn't know if he is on here under a different name.
What made you think of him?

Was thinking of old team mates in the comp

Didn't he used to help run the naps or was it the lay-a-day, my memory fails me?

Nice one PDB

At least something worked out this week [:D]

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.

Well done lester!

Great start, Well Done lester [:D]

nice work lester

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

Fantastic winner in the naps DFC!

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.

Gl FTG

I was torn between 2 horses AGAIN for nap......and overnight one of them has shortened a bit ( I got 8.2...and currently 6.2 and fav.....) so opted for that one-       Sambelucky in 1.40. Appears to have a reasonable chance of winning ....so probably either won't place ....or it wins.....so never did it EW.

The other one is       Eyre Square in 3.25.....Hope I've plumped for right one of 2.

GL with bets.

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!

NOPe ..once again the other one wins


At least won money of it though[;)]

Can't doa wink nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Best wishes for your Dad, PB.
Gone with Prince Basc at Wetherby for Ferdy Murphy, also fancy Great Endeavour in big one at Chelt. Off on a fool's errand to Manchester to see Blues, could be difficult.
How quickly things change, now facing relegation from premier, bloody hopeless tipping!
cheers
One Shot

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.

Midnight Chase 1.55 Chelt - EW

Hopefully joining up with foxy for a forecast, couldn't see anything else I fancied today.

Good luck!

Yeeeeesssss

Brillant pick ud Well Done [:D]

been out just got in, my daughter now has a ex-race horse Balkirk / Billy just on loan arrived at livery where she works today.

Brave run UD .....and yer horse was that too

Great work lester, even if it means you overtake me in the Premier

Great pick lester [:D]

Racing Demons - next week (21-27 Nov) will be the last this year as far as our team is concerned, as we don't qualify for the mini champions league.

I have yet to finalise plans for next year but I'd like to keep it going in some form, probably to start back at the end of Jan/beginning Feb. It hasn't been the best of years for us but I hope you enjoy it anyway and will return to have another go next year.

cheers

Altan Khan 2.0 Muss - EW

Another UD job!!! Well Done that man

taa, good luck with yours

Brillant Nap again ud, sorry for delay been to hospital again and could`nt get on here in the afternoon.

thanks, hope your father is on the mend.

foxy's selection tomorrow, Gringo, always reminds me of the song of the same name by Arnold McCuller, superb tune, I'll be singing it all day lol.

Good luck today team, we are in a good position so hopefully will go on to secure 1st place this afternoon. I have gone for Elna Bright in 2.30 Ling, won the race last year but went wrong in his last run. If he sound and hopefully gets the strong pace he requires, he should be closing them down at the finish.

Well done with place points PDB, our lead was stolen by Thieves but a good 2nd this week

WD "guys" on getting points on board.....Mine threatened a wee bit ....but looks like going was too much for it today in this class of race...probably wins next year on GOOD going!

Cheers the nooooooooo

Hope you get that much deserved monthly title guys
we are not out to "beat our Demons" . . .
we will settle for second to you guys
best of luck

Was torn between 2 in same race ..but plumped for 2.55 Aintree -       Pliny  EW.....instead of EIGHTEEN CARAT.....For once I hope I guessed right 1 or 2

Gl this week "guys".

Sorry "guys" ...had a late night last night ..and never spotted this is a NOVICE H/C hurdle......so probably a younger horse will win the race....but who knows..

EIGHTEENCARAT ...puts me ahead ..a wee bit!

No good for team though!!!! AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh

it would happen that way wouldn't it

I worked out that MCCAIN was likely to get a winner last night at AINTREE.......found EIGHTEEN CARAT ....looked to have many factors in favour ....then went for PLIGNY this morning .....

Happening far too often when I choose wrong one of 2 UD.....but that is horse racing ...we all do this ...well the good napsters like my team members I'm sure do ...except they choose the right one more often than I do![smiley:crazy]

GL with rest of selections guys.

DFC If we could stop picking the wrong one of two we would all be quids in, trouble is, it`s not as easy as it sounds.......

Gone with Denny Crane in 9-00 at Dundalk. Away for weekend so will catch up monday.
Good luck team and hopefully see you all next year.
One Shot

Good Luck all today, I am torn between Neptune Collonges and Pandorama in the Hennessy today although I would like to see my local trainer Ian Williams win it with Weird Al.

Mill Side 12.55 Newb - EW

Good luck PDB & ftg.

This is it for us for this year then, let's hope we can go out with a win, and hope to see you all next year, around the end of Jan!

WD UD ...some points ...much needed!!!!

PDB ....I opted for NC.....so obviously the other one wins ...or is that a clue for The Tother One ?????


GL with selection "guys".

I layed DENMAN last night ...based on going being a lot softer than it is.....the ease in going does give it a chance to win .....but also gives horses like BARBER SHOP a better chance today....

Looks a wide open race ...

Thanks PDB for all your energy input on the TEAM and also on the other competitions. I hope your dad is improving , though from what you posted earlier this will be a difficult time for you and your family.

Thanks as well to UD re running TEAM comp ....very impressive the way you have all the selections on last day each week.......Hope you are getting a few winners off some of the other TEAMS anyway

Best wishes to all team members over Xmas and NEW YEAR.....at least things can only get better....I hope !!!!

Well done in the Daily DFC, back in the mix!

Cheers UD ....not good enough probably for promotion ....but good in annual comp where targets set on.......Need to hit more like that one ...as some pretty fierce competition within striking range....all it needs is 50-1 Sp shot...

Cheers the nooooooooooooooo

Thanks for the good wishes DFC and well done on promotion again. Hope you can make it back to the prem for the start of the new year. One Shot hope you can make it back to the prem next month as well.

Seasons Greetings for Racing Demons
Health , wealth & happiness to Team members & families
[;)]

Thank You Stewpot, and the same to you and the EW Thieve`s team.

Sad news PDB .....Feared the worse when you initially posted.......and did not ask how your dad was doing,as his condition was very poor from your post. Hoping you and your family will get through this horrible time and have no more blows in coming year.
