    [code:18x1hbio]Corm can i change my name to "The Legendary Ante-Post King" now?[/code:18x1hbio]

    I was worried that you might be thinking of elevating yourself to the status of a God.

    Highes hardly moved on Tidal Bay before the last watch the replay, he was cantering all the way to the last, the horse looked as if was really enjoying himself too

    My wife who is no better than an average race rider asked three times between the top of the hill and the last "Isn’t it time the jockey tried to hustle Tidal Bay up a bit"

    If a novice can see the jockey is taking it easy surely folk on here won’t be fooled by any spin from the jockey.
    He was also baulked at least twice as he made ground

    The "R"s fell out of it! "Legendary" will do fine! TLAPK,not sure it sits well! Wait till Somersby runs away with the Arkle!

    "Flat out" weren’t my words, but those of his jockey!
    Of course, I should’ve known there were better judges on here. :lol:

    …if I recall Ruby had to really roust up Big Bucks coming into the straight at Newbury….selective memories??

    I’m quickly coming round to the thinking that Tidal Bay has a really sound chance of beating Big Bucks, he was a far better (failed) chaser than Big Bucks

    Well read Cheltenham! or should i say your Missus! I"m getting the feeling Reet bottled out of backing him today! The thought of him not jumping a hurdle for 3 years perhaps! :shock:

    Well done Cheltenham Specialist and of course TLAPK! I didn’t dessert him (sorry Bosranic) and have been rewaqrded handsomely in a nice priced 3 winner Canadian that included Tidal Bay.

    Tell you the 12-1 for the World Hurdle is way too big. He has class and seemed to enjoy himself no end. Yes strictly on form he is still a good few pounds shy of Big Bucks but he is far better on better ground and he obviously has a massive engine. Each way at 1/4 the odds is now my biggest ante post wager of all time! (Although its only £5 each way lol)

    By the way TLAPK, will you be laying off to guarantee a profit or will you lay off to make it a free bet or will you just let it ride?

    Douginho, forgive my ignorance, but what is a Canadian?

    Its a bet of 5 selections permed as follows:-

    a Five Fold
    5 Four Folds
    10 Trebles
    10 Doubles

    So thats 26 bets. As many of the guys on here will know I like my permed bets as it gives chance of big wins from low stakes. Then again many punters seem to consider multiple betting as sacrilege, guaranteed to fail. Each to there own!

    The winner did it well, but if a five length beating of Time For Rupert is World Hurdle Form then Rafael Benitez is the most gifted manager in football.

    Look at Rafael Benitez form,bit like Tidal Bay! They are both capable of winning the big ones and on their way they may beat rubbish to get there! You stick to your All weather,thats about your level! 8)
