You’re beginning to get on my last nerve, TAPK
You do come across as the nervous type! go and have a cup of Horlicks
and dip your milk biscuits in it, that will help to calm your last nerve!
Who"s your half dozen then?May 22, 2009 at 00:24 #229326

Just my view, but I’d seriously doubt Reverence has the speed for 5f at this level nowadays, even on soft ground.
He showed much the same ‘promise’ in the same race last year – again run at the gentlemanly pace most Irish races seem to be – and though he ran some decent races afterwards, in 4 subsequent races at 5f he never got within shouting distance of a decent horse. Even in his prime, when he regularly ran gp1 ratings, he needed soft ground to slow others down at the trip, and he’s 3 years older now, and has nothing like the same speed.
Maybe the shouting should be saved until after the race?May 22, 2009 at 00:33 #229333

What a crock of sh!t Carv losing short-odds punter? What fookin forum have you been posting on for the last 2 years?
You mean like Zarkava 7/1 Binny 25/1 to 8/1 ew Kalahari King 25/1 ew MM at 6/4 started long odds on. Kauto Star at 7/1 and 5/1.
How about Sunnyhillboy at Sandown? Oh and not let’s not forget your old favourite Don’t Push It at Aintree. You must remember him and the shyte you and others gave me when I said Jonjo said he needed 3 miles.
Lets just look at some of my bets posted on here over the last couple of weeks. Yes I backed Age of Aquarius and Mourayan who were short, but there was Danehill Willy at 66/1 ew I backed in the Swinton who I said had a touch of class and was a crazy price, John Quinns Aleron at 12/1 and of course Elusive Wave at 5/1.
Your shot-odds loser is on a par with you level stakes shyte you tried on with me a few months. I really hope this post shows you up for what you are with your silly challenges to other memebers. Sure if I see something I reagard as great value and that can be an even money shot I get weighed in. Why wouldn’t I?
Your hoping on about dailly lays and plays challenges speaks volumes. The oldest rule in the book is you punt everyday you will eventually lose.
What you are saying I don’t disagree with but the horse has to win not just be shorter on the day or it isn’t worth a monkeys is it? I happen to think no matter what runs he’ll get stuffed. BTW the horse was cut to hell today and wasn’t 20/1 anywhere after midday except on Betfair. I think he went 26 but that was short lived. My thoughts are this is a good prize but not a great race. Some of these like the top 3 I think will take their chances and hope their class tells as the opposition is very poor looking.
Alston horses are running like monkees and the yard got their fingers well singed at Mussleburgh the other day with one they thought was a good thing. Name escapes me but a friend was there and tells me there was fortunes for the horse. So his ranting in the press for the last week on this one don’t impress me one bit. Good luck to anyone who has backed him as I wont be having a bet as I have two AP bets on already on other events Namely Rayeni at 4/1 NOT fav.
I don’t exactly walk about with my eyes shut when it comes to these things and if you read my post right next to your own I advised everyone to lump onto Famous Name at 4/1 (Wasn’t fav) who is now 5/2 for exactly the same reason you are putting forward. I think I said it was begining to look like a one horse race because nothing else was likely to go on the ground. Like yours not worth a hoot unless he wins but I would say he has a bit more of a chance in doing so.
Have a nice day Carv and once again up until now I have never critisied you on here in any shape or form, but you’ve crossed the line once to often with me. Your crap last time was childish and uncalled for. You seem to think no one has the right to make money out of betting except you. If they claim to win a fee quid despite posting the selections on here out comes your "silly challenge hat". It’s like your saying this is my forum winners aren’t welcome.

Reverence has Won a 1/3 of all his races, some record for a sprinter! He has suffered with re-occuring injury in the past which has affected his form too! Anything that can get within 1/2l of
INXILE
is a bloody good horse! just remember Inxile will win this years Abbaye!! 16/1 if you"re interested!

Bit of the Jethro Tull’s there in the last 2 years it drops to 1 from 15 that’s a round 6%.
But if you have the horse at 50/1 ew all you neeed is a place and he’s had plenty of those

My nerves aren"t jangling! just another day in the office! Now where"s this
6 man team thats going to whoop my ass! surely Captain Equitracks not made one of his big bold brave statements and run off to hide again!May 22, 2009 at 01:57 #229367Sesame Street is only 5f long horse hasn’t won over the trip in 5 years and this is a Group race. When’s the last time he ran well in this class?
Fist, if you make comments like this you’ve got to expect some comeback. To be told the horse I’ve just backed has no chance by a man still crowing about the four winners he’s backed since the Arc last year just gets a little on my nerves. It’s no coincidence that the people on here with some idea have their differences but seldom have a cross word, because we don’t rubbish each other’s considered opinions- have a look at the Crimson Fern thread for an example of this.
Ante-Post muppet youre in the same category- if you continue to ridicule other people on here and shove your own opinions down our throats you will continue to populate these threads with idiotic point-scoring with Fist. The place was a lot more peaceful without him and at the moment I’d say the same about you. I have no problem discussing racing with anyone at any level but being patronised and insulted doesn’t really do it for me.May 22, 2009 at 02:04 #229369

Well I’m off to bed and in the morning heading to the beach until Sunday. Won’t see any racing but then won’t have to wait long between races (replays.)
Try not to wreck the joint while I’m gone. I have left strict instructions with Equi to wind you up as much as possible to keep you on your toes in my abscence

And don’t forget the police sang it and Tom trained it and you wont go wrong

Very diplomatically put Reet,
Diplomacy wouldn’t be my strong point TAPK, though I’m not one for spouting-off any successes.
I learned a long time ago that a big mouth is no more than a crutch for the inadequate.

Six man team?
Whooping your ass?
You clearly have an over-active imagination, TAPK, but your fantasies are your business and not, I would suggest, a topic for public debate.

In a match its 10/11 Look Busy v 11/10 Captain Gerrard! If Captain Gerrard
doesn"t finish in front of Look Busy then I"ll pack in betting! He is different
class to the filly who is a great little thing! This is a Group 2 though!May 22, 2009 at 23:54 #229516Reverence will love the ground and should not be ruled out.
May 23, 2009 at 00:45 #229530I’ll be punting Look Busy and Mastaplasta tomorrow.
Masta Plasta is an extremley underrated 5 furlong performer and this ground will suit him better than we believe. Look Busy will also thrive on the ground.
Considering look busy was 49/1 on the machine last week she’s shortened up pretty fast hasnt she? She’s got a great record over 5f however the formline through Crimson Fern would leave me a tiny bit worried going into Saturdays race. Not worried enough to put me off her though.
The Masta and the Busy for me!

Wow Halfway, i thought it was the soft ground that beat Masta Plasta
in Ireland last time! If you want a bit of form to boost your opinion of Look Busy then she did beat Inxile at Ayr last year! She will never beat him again mind!May 23, 2009 at 01:35 #229539I actually agree with HTH on Masta Plasta. He does have his occasional off day but he has won of soft over 5F and does well on galloping tracks (again on a good day). I think he is just not as good at 6F TAPK. Of course there’s doubts but I for one would expect the ground to cause a few fluctuations in the market, and it could be a turn up. Masta Plaaaasta for me!

Captain Gerrard for the forecast.
Good luck guys 26 for the Masta! The only Master I"m interested in is the one that will win the Irish 2000gns!
