Sir Isaac Newton to win @14.5 to 1
Has settled in very well after losing 5kg during the journey to Australia which was put straight back on the next day.
Colm O’ Donoghue travels over to ride
Big weekend with Idaho & Best in the world running in Canada on Sunday as well.
October 10, 2016 at 12:43 #1266517Do you ever tip anything that’s not a Ballydoyle horse Botchy
October 10, 2016 at 13:32 #1266526Not really in the big races, i think it started after i backed Qualify in the Oaks last year @100 to 1
October 10, 2016 at 13:58 #1266532Almost all your tips in the big races seem to be Ballydoyle horses botchy.
And nice bit of aftertiming there buddy.
October 10, 2016 at 17:03 #1266555Almost all your tips in the big races seem to be Ballydoyle horses botchy. So, is it against the rules or something ?
And nice bit of aftertiming there buddy. Cheers, if anyone wants to PM me with an e-mail address i can forward on a screenshot of an 80/1 bet placed online and they can verify my claim here. 100/1 bet was placed in store.Only about a £3 each way like… but still
October 10, 2016 at 18:32 #1266566No it’s not against the rules but it does get a bit tedious the amount of O’Brien sheep on here who basically just tip up all their horses and try to pass that off as “insight”
Although better to be an O’Brien follower than pretty much anyone else I suppose.
October 10, 2016 at 19:30 #1266577Don’t let it bother you. He probably wont have a big race winner next year
October 10, 2016 at 23:24 #1266593Well I’m sure you’ll be on them anyway, as you just seem to back all of his regardless.
October 11, 2016 at 08:24 #1266646Certainly will in the second half of the season, and the rest of this now the World Record is on.
Good luck to the whole operation i say, and i’m sure they will be close after this weekend, Doncaster & BC
I’m even worse on the jumps with Mullins BTW ( Joke )
Wonder what price he is for SPOTY
October 11, 2016 at 09:10 #1266650Thought this was supposed to be a forum, where meaningful views were exchanged, not an O’Brien appreciation society.
I see you put up O’Brien horses for pretty much every race. Why don’t you just say “I like O’Brien” and leave it at that?
October 11, 2016 at 10:05 #1266654C’mon Judge, I think you made your point first time around, and botchy agreed with you that he does
indeed back O’Brien’s horses. I think it’s still “meaningful”, even if you think it may be a little
restricted, but I don’t think we should have a problem with that. It’s not like he’s Gore mk2, who
put up every odds on or short priced favourite in every post. I quite like to look out for the O’Brien
second, or third string, in the big races, how often have we seen them turn over their more fancied
stablemate. It will be interesting to see how O’Brien junior does in the jumps season, he should have
the clout and connections to acquire some decent horses over the next few years.Good luck to both of you
October 11, 2016 at 10:12 #1266655Yeah fair point Big G, maybe I’ve been in a bad mood of late, just seems like there’s too much fawning over other posters when all they seem to do is put up O’Brien horses.

Did put up Almanzor @ 25’s e/w is that ok?
October 11, 2016 at 12:12 #1266678Of course Botchy! You can bet whatever you want of course I was just being arsey.
GL with your bet.
October 11, 2016 at 12:42 #1266683Of course Botchy! You can bet whatever you want of course. Sorry i was just being arsey.
GL with your bet.
Fixed that for you.

I’m sorry to see the Judge lashing out on a poster just because he likes winners and if you don’t like them, post your own.
As a matter of fact in 40%+ big races with O’Brien entrys, he’ll have from 2-4 runners, none of them useless and often 1 or 2 with top credentials.
So finding the right O’Brien horse is just as important as looking for other trainees.
Keep it up Botchy
Best Wishes

SPOTY? Would that not be hard considering both O’Brien and Mullins are Irish and based in Ireland ?
