Thanks Pat.

Sorry to be a pain (and I don’t know what date your update goes to) but I did put up Capri for the St Leger. It’s on page 2 of the “2017-18 Ante Post Tipping Comp – Selections from September 4th Onwards” thread. I posted it on the 12th of September with the rubbish selections Montaly & Stake Acclaim.

Apologies if you did calculate that in, I appreciate that I post more selections than most.
