    Will take a look at this later. I’m on a recovery mission with Fine Rightly @ 16’s E/W in the 2.50 :heart:

    Killer Crow @ 22’s to win He’s due a big race at some point. Think the trip and ground should suit him well today. :good:

    Good luck those having a bet :yes:

    Georges conn, second in the race last year has moved from Elliot to JP Ryan who is in brilliant form, having his best season ever. Is running off a 2 pound higher mark this year but is only carrying 9’13.
    Last few runs he has been running in races too difficult for him but they would have helped to get a bit of race fitness in without damaging his handicap mark. He is the outsider of the field at 50/1, now maybe the market is right and he will come no where but I believe 50/1 is a brilliant price about last years runner up.

    I looked at him as well Wex, and the price of 50’s for him is a bit of an insult. It’s a considerably stronger race than last year, which was a shocking renewal, but at least with a voucher like that, you know he’ll act round there, and I’d be very surprised if you don’t get a run for your money. Good luck :good:

    40’s is an insult to that horse, I think he’s a serious player, and you and Tommy shouldn’t be far away.

    When you’re as sweet on a horse like you are here you’re never far off, so I’ll be having a good go on Captain Von Trappe as well. Hopefully it’ll follow suit with your punting masterclass on the Hennessy!

    Thanks Peter, that Hennessy couldn’t have went much better.

    I’m still very keen on him, but it’s a slight concern that he’s touched 40’s today. The trainer has 11 in there, which is also a concern, but hey, got to stick to my guns, and fingers crossed :good:

    Good stuff DBR, and Tommy I hope you backed him too after mentioning you liked his
    chances. I’m not sure what happened to Woodford Island, he looked like he’s never
    seen a fence before. He was never travelling and it was no surprise when he was
    pulled up :scratch:
