my mistake it should be 1750. I have corrected it, and finalised the lists.

I think the ground in the straight at Ascot is not too bad.

Now going to cheat and have a look at your short lists before posting my selections. And what Formath has got to say for himself…

Sorry I have had a bit of a mix up on one of the races. Nevermind.

Good luck today Carlisle.

[carlisle]

Cheers mate

I could do with a nice Rollup.

[onefurlongout]

I can see a going change happening at some stage of todays racing.

Best of Luck

[carlisle]

Hooray!

I have backed a winner, and a £25 exacta. But I have had a MARE today.

my gdc figure needs a complete rethink. Back to the drawing board, again………..
It’s absolutely sheight.

Like i said I hate ascot but i had a few winners from Market Rasen / Haydock so all in all up on the day but not much to shout about.

unfortunate with Commando Scott again I think the distance was a little on the short side for him this week.

Role on next week!

Who did you have the exacta with?

[dave jay]

my gdc figure

.. what’s that carlisle ?

[carlisle]

Hi 1FurOut

"It’s official" you are a bottler! Only joking it was a wise move, although there wasn’t any shock results at Ascot.

My exacta was Ronaldsay to beat Sunisa it paid £25.

I still dropped £185 on the day though, it could have been a lot worse.

Hi dave Jay

"What is gdc?"

I am going to start a separate thread, your views are always appreciated mate. If I could put this to bed I could sleep easy.

Any thoughts on this weekends card? Im off out on the lash on friday so selection process will be blurred

[carlisle]

Hi 1FurOut

my current situation is that I have lost confidence in the accuracy of my gcd, so that needs taking apart, fixing and putting back together.

I am also trying to gain some cohorts, allies/team players on the Raceform Forum.
It seems a complete waste that talents and efforts cannot be channelled powerfully. My big ideas are weighing me down somewhat, you see.

As for this weekend….. I will have a look and report back.

Strangely I haven’t touched a drop for weeks, so have one for me mate.

sorry mate

I have caught a crab.

[onefurlongout]

No worries I had a prety dire weekend really culminating in Authorised getting beat.

Given that there are only a few decent flat races left this year do you use the same method for NH racing?

I’d be interested in your thoughts surrounding horses that PU, UR, BD etc and how you rate them in the form

[carlisle]

Hi 1FurOut

sorry to say that my Jumps speed rating/form is WWWaaaaaaayyyy out of date. I need to do some serious catching up.

The winter all weather racing can sometimes be good though. The going and the track are virtually the same, so therefore it’s easier to find winners.

With regard to the PU,BD,F problem…. we may need to take some advice on this one. (I don’t use this column in my ss)

Safest thing would be to issue a 10pt penalty. PREHAPS!

But what do you do if a horse has only ran once or never before?

Oh what a lovely start to the week, it can only get better.
