Nothing Gained 12

[Venture to Cognac]

Great start today with Techno Davis EW at 18’s, and the next two were much smaller. Unfortunately the bet on Franciscan Rock was a greedy one again, and made it a losing day.

Techno Davis a big eyecatcher

Friday a lot quieter day, but main bet of the day will be an EW on Fr Gilligansvoyage in the opener. I bet him now and then, never wins, rarely places, but ajwaus gives a good spin at big odds

Not many times you will collect with a horse tailed off in 4th Bobby but there you go, 100 to 1 congrats

Excellent faith in the lost cause, VtC! (I thought it was Fr Gilligansvoyage, but it is voyge.) When I saw it had won in 2023 on the same going, etc, I thought it was worth following (for four places) (SP on Skybet). Paid for my losses today.

Thanks guys, been some season for the 100-1 shots, and delighted to collect from another. He was main bet of the day, and the fact my only other bet was Midnight Tango EW at 80’s, meant it was one to remember

Last Day of my season, and been a great season.

The Saturday always dominated by the three big handicaps, which are always crazy competitive.

This year though, the two chases in particular are outstanding renewals, and the 1505 in particular is easily in the top five handicaps there’s been this season. Twenty Two Runners, and I can only rule one out. In the end, had to go with three.

Shanbally Kid won it last year, seven pounds higher here, but the seven pounds wouldn’t have stopped him last year. Not concerned with his PU at Fairyhouse. Fishery Lane is one I haven’t given up on at all, and old Duffle Coat is a huge price if Fairyhouse was just to blow cobwebs away. A big if

Went for 2025 Winner in the next too, with Bill Baxter, and also going with fellow Brit, Dartmoor Pirate. This is another fabulous renewal

Going with Escaria Ten in the opener, and I’ll round off my season with Kopek De Mee in that mad hurdle

Very best of luck today.

Thanks mate, hoping to go out on a high, been a Fab season, and a couple of winners on the last day would be great

[Sungold]

Tip top, Bobby. Four excellent selections placed at very good odds. Out on a high! Congratulations.

Thanks very much mate, no winners, but a really good day for the big EW’s again. I’ll wrap up the thread tonight
