I’ll just put up 20 after the off  bets up a day..
That’ll keep him busy

Sorry you feel this way Chav. It's just a bit of fun for me and I think everyone on the team should treat it this way. Plat gets to pick another so just make them pay by picking an even bigger priced winner, OK mate? But even if he doesn't or we all pick 8 losers every week, nobody is letting anyone down. Just play for fun guys!

Don't be silly chav we need you, I feel sorry for UD really as its a no win situation for him, if he voids it he gets grief from this team if he allows it the others get on his back

He did void others as well after they posted right on post time (Stridingedge I think) so its not on him he has put the rules in the threads we have just fallen foul of it this time

Let's move on chaps. We know the rules and it was only a 15/8 winner....I'm just thankful it wasn't a 10/1 winner! Get studying Plat and come up with another beauty for the team.

Any winner is a good one in horse racing, plat

But yeah I've always read the rule as the posted off time which in this case was 5:15 so need to get it in before then, UD needs that to run the comp smoothly I guess

Hopefully Chav cools off and comes back because the team would be extremely worse off without him, not just the winners but he knows his stuff with regards to horse racing in terms of advice etc

Be Proud in the Ayr 5:00 looks decent, last race at 5f it couldn't find a clear run at all and only beat 3l, good form at Ayr over 6f which it seemed to always run well but never saw it out, so my thinking is dropped to 5 it'll always finish off well, all of Jim Goldies runners have been in good form lately and all been going close and placing so "stable form" is good. The ground is reading good at the moment so almost perfect racing ground can't complain. Is it better to put it EW selection if it goes bigger than 5s?

Play it as you see fit SS, watched its race at Newcastle last time out and it would have been a lot closer with a clear run. Its been placed 9 times and only won twice and never won a Class 5 so maybe each way is the way to go if that's the way you are thinking, a quarter the odds in this handicap so 4/1 or better is fine. Good luck whatever you do.

As suspected mine is now odds on so may have a rethink , I've got an average of 2.22 for myself so am quite happy for my own purpose, but may rethink for the comp, will see how the day goes.

Tiger...this is a tad cryptic...ill post after you've made your selection

Good luck today everyone.

My pick coming soon.

9/2 currently, would be daft sticking it in and then it shortening into 7/2 with the EW part, we are top for this round still though so any type of EW or shorty is good, tiger.

Need to try and get the few points to extend the lead I guess

I'll hold fire just in case it shortens throughout the afternoon, no point if it comes in to 3/1 really

Interesting "ride" on one of my notebook horses today, Noc.

Good luck with Dubai Icon stu.

Unlucky stu, looked very much like he needed the run.

Best to keep it that way as I've put mine as a straight win as 4/1 is just silly EWing it personally, still got 5 left after this and some team members left to post

Good luck SS, thought you would have gone in each way. Fingers crossed.

I don't bet EW personally but in this comp it could pay to do so from time to time. UL Sontaran

Fair enough Tiger. You was on and that's the most important thing. 

Went off at 4/6, maybe I should have just took the points, too late now!

Tiger I didn’t post anything as i am a believer people should go with what they really fancy if they only have 1 go a week I shouldn’t try to put you off! but I really fancied Vedute in that race today (I double staked) and obvs I have come up short and your selection was the one to be one.
I priced the race up  5/4winner 5/2 mine 7/1 all the rest so that probs shows the value I thought I was getting.

WD for picking the winner anyway even if you didn’t stick it up mate

I'm not sure ill get a poke Sat so this is likely to be my selection tomorrow and its got a clutching at straws sort of feel about it and maybe ISNT helpful when we are already leading but I do fancy it:


FARASI LANE 305 NEWB - Marked this one as a potential lenient mark. Not seen very much of it but its last race at kempton for me it lacked urgency at the start and therefore gained a poor race position. Then imo margin beaten was deceptively high, eased down close home, then after the line it didnt appear too tired either...watch the replay, decide for yourself. I dont think im onto a golden nugget but certainly something to work with. Down 2lb and horses that beat it in this race have came out  and ran since and done ok off of their own marks proving that this race was pretty competitive form wise helps my cause...hopefully nearer the day it gets a low draw if it does choose Kempton AW again, tucked in near enough and gives its running.

Just as ive typed all that, its an each way price range (14/1) with 7 runners...ugh I dont know...could always see what Sat brings.

One thing for sure if 6 or 7 do remain and books are offering 3 TBP terms ill be shovelling.
