Well done Custard, a very game winner and at a nice price that gives us a good start.
Unlucky Shane. I went with the Derby favourite Bolshoi Ballet to win, as stated in my thread he ticks a lot of boxes and it would be nice to supplement CC's contribution. Good luck everyone. |

It’s always nice to have someone else to blame when things go wrong so I’m going with the same as Andrew. ![]() Epsom 4:30 Bolshoi Ballet 10 points Win |

Can't have duplicate selections within the same team

Off the scale George, you have produced are two stand out moments. Hope you had a few quid on.
It's bad enough having two selections in one race, unless one is a big outsider, let alone three. |

Cheers Differentdrum. When they showed the slo-mo, he went from around 1-10 in the photo betting to 4-5, with Nick Luck's reaction probably having a bit of an influence.
Thankfully though he had got there. Unless happysandwich posts again we're going to need a wildcard. |
|
By:
Yes, it is important we don't waste a selection.
The only two horses I have backed outside of Hurricane Lane are Only Spoofing and Sunday Sovereign. Ground drying should be in favour of Only Spoofing. I haven't really looked at the other meetings. Other teams might not be too happy if you put up the wildcard? Happy for someone else to do it, but if nobody does, mine would be Only Spoofing EW |

Superb selection George, VWD
![]() Happysandwich doesn't look in here often so it may be better if a wildcard is used. |

By:
Cheers Andrew.
Please post it Differentdrum. My record with wildcards is pretty abysmal! Last week's dropped out the back of the telly ![]() |

By:
Fantastic pick George, well done. Good luck to those still to run.

By:
Have posted.
Wildcard 3.45 Epsom Only Spoofing EW George has put us in a (very) good position, but it would nice to get points from at least one of the four remaining selections just to seal it. |
|
By:
Cheers Custard.
Well done on the place Differentdrum, pushes us nicely a bit further clear. |
|
By:
Thanks, I don't think the course or draw really helped him, but it's a few more points. Shame you don't get more points for the number of horses beaten.

Another unbelievable result. Pretty sure Adayar was there to set a strong pace for Hurricane Lane, but he was too slow to get to the front. Hurricane Lane ran well but didn't handle the track. I presume they will have another bash at the Curragh. At least all the ante-post bets produced a small return. Hard to know what to make of a race where the second should have been a million.

My thoughts again dd, beat the others so easily 3/6/9/12L ![]() ![]() |

By:
Cheers werbie & captain
![]() How did they know about Adayar? Trading around 60 15 mins before the off on here, gets backed in to under 20. Had the coffin box draw. Hugh Taylor tipped the one that beat it at Lingfield. Apparently very much the stable second string. THEY KNEW! |

Had another look and it seems as if only the front two have stayed the trip. The last thing I would have had Hurricane Lane down as was a non stayer. By Frankel out of a two mile winner on heavy ground from the family of Seal Of Approval. On that he should be getting the Leger trip.
The money for Adayar was strange given he had a bad draw, didn't take the prelims that well, and could easily have just been on pacemaker duty. I did consider him yesterday - 22/1 six places - but left him alone on the basis I was very strong on Hurricane Lane, and if he was set to make the pace he could easily have dropped away to nothing. It almost certainly worked to his advantage that he wasn't quick enough away to get to the lead. |

On the positive front it looks as if china has got a freebie. We haven't been able to say that for a while. Only four scores so far today, and we got two of them, including the one that mattered. Same again next week George.

By:
Unlucky china, good call.
|
|
By:
Bad luck china. Poor effort from the jock. Had he closed off the rail I think he would have held on.
Couple we might have gone each way on today if we had known George was going to put up a 28/1 winner, but it didn't matter. Maybe I should have mentioned the wooden spoon a bit earlier. Well done Pins. Let's try and back this up. |

Unlucky china.
Same again next week George. No pressure then, Differentdrum ![]() |

Hats off to George B whose 28/1 cracker at weekend took his total points tally for the team (from his own selections- don't know if any wildcards played by him) has passed 500.00 (501.00 actually)
Out of a team total of 986.21 thats pretty impressive!! Outstanding George B ![]() ![]() ![]() |

By:
George's groupies out in force. Nice to know that people are so interested that they keep individual scores of other teams. I presume Shane has done something similar?
Perhaps next time George should have his own team, rather than slum it with the rest of us? |

Plenty of rubbish this week so certainly not worth holding on if you can find one. |

Only just watched it back. Very disappointing, jock always appeared to be doing too much, initially from four wide. Strange, considering his own ability, that Joseph appears clueless when it comes to jocks. It's almost as if he puts his pals up.

Awful really, that`s racing...............
Good luck troops. |
