    Think he’s been warned off like his mate. Maybe he should look for a honest occupation instead of trying to rip people off.

    If it’s the real Glen Gill he was cleared of doping that horse and it really was an accident when he clicked the ‘lay’ button for Gullible Gordon on behalf of big Harry.

    There were a few smart comments placed on his thread this morning in anticipation of his return. Matron did him a favour and deleted the thread. :D

    His 4/1 gave it away. :)

    fox knews

    The fox waited and waited.
    The farmer seemed to visit
    the hen house every night now
    and the birds all looked
    much bigger than they used
    to in them bygone days of the
    easier pickings.

    He kept reading his rule book.
    Wait for the right moment and pounce.

    " Madge that small copse at the back
    of the hen house – I took to clearing
    it today – guess what I found ?

    " An old playboy ? "

    No an old critter of a fox,
    stiff as a board.
    Strange thing was there
    was a newish pair of binocualrs
    right next to him.

    " What’s strange bout that dear ?"

    .. " They were round his neck ! "

    The one I fancied to take on Glen’s ‘tip’ was withdrawn, but even so I think I’d have beaten his selection despite mine being 20/1.
    Does anyone know why Perfect Vision was a non-runner please? My ego convinced me that connections, having seen my tip on here, decided to wait for another day rather than lose the value because they knew Nathan Hughes would be lumping on.

    Matthew, if you backed that rag and did get a refund, I’m afraid you’d only go and lose it on the first "find the lady" game you stumble across.

    When it looks too good to be true, 99 times out of 100 it IS too good to be true :(

    I was taking the Michael CS, I’d never have followed that
    horse after the threads on here…

    It made me chuckle.

    Surely, this guy isn’t mates with HF? HF would be embarrased if
    he saw all that stuff on here last night.

    As they are business partners I would think HF is on a cut of any money made. Despite what you might think, people do send money to these charlatans.

    Thanks Sberry. Strange, withdrawn less than thirty minutes before race time. Surely they knew the state of the going a lot earlier than that. Confirms my suspicion that this was a goer until they saw my tip for it at 6 p.m.
    Keep an eye out for it, Perfect Vision.
    Cheers

    "Charlatan", get an "honest job".

    Sorry, but where’s the evidence of this?

    Fully understand why he was banned, spamming etc. but can’t see any reason to call his integrity in to question.

    There are well respected, established members of this forum who’ve had tipping lines.

    Not that I thought Namaskar was a good bet at 4/1. I’d have wanted 11/2 to back it. After seeing it in the paddock at Salisbury on reappearance. Very much on her toes, head high (as in the race), bit free to post and in the race. Had her down as one that could improve, but temperament suspect. Certainly not the value bet Mr Gill made him (imo).
    At Newbury looked around the paddock as if still green, again too free in the race and carrying head high. Some of us were on the winner at good prices. :wink:

    The going was good to firm, probably on the good side judging by the times.

    It’s run 5 times before, twice on good, twice on good to firm and on polytrack which is equivalent of good to firm? It’s best two runs on turf were on good to firm, maybe over too far and it won on polytrack.

    So what was wrong with the going then?

    Racing Post comments…

    "Namaskar, just as when runner-up to subsequent Italian Oaks winner Contredanse at Salisbury on her reappearance, refused to settle and was disappointing this time."

    Anyone with genuine inside info would surely be aware that the filly was likely to pull her way to defeat.
    I stood for an Irish Bumper mare (Mary Spring Rice) twice for fairly big money during the winter that threw at least one race away by pulling too hard, I put her up on the forum in my defence she was a 20-1 shot (not a 2nd fav) and I didn’t omit a warning that she’d have to settle to win and that was a risk to take into consideration before having a bet….and that was without "inside info".

    If I was trying to get customers ….and I’m not…. I’d have made sure my "Free sample" was utterly bulletproof.

    Yes you are right Ken, I lumped on with my Ladbrokes odds-on card, a few more non runners and i get a free bet. :wink:

    However you might be on to something as funnily enough my two naps in today’s comp were non-runners.

    ‘Prince Monolulu’

    Ah…Such memories!!! I bought a tip from him at Goodwood as a green behind the ears teenager, horse got beat (of course) but the shpiel was well worth the half’a’crown!!!
