    I think he’d have tied up. He stays the trip he stayed it at Cheltenham so theorectically his flat speed should’ve been evident after the last on a less stiff track. I remember ex flats like Alderbrook and Royal Gait excelling after the lsast.

    Its a game of opnions but I think you’re being very harsh on Sam Thomas.

    yes Ian,i have the same opinion.a few days ago,i read in the RP that he is a very difficult ride,so i think,sam could only do,what he did in the end.i remember the same about harchibald,who blew it so many times in his career,despite being one of the best hurdlers of the decade.so,if even paul carberry couldnt get him right most of the times,who could?

    Hello,

    The odds are ridiculous considering the going will be heavy…

    Is K/Star up to a slog??[/quotegood morning,mates!!i hope,you had great halloween party,i had one definitely.but back to the subject:kauto star is a phantastic horse,no question,but IMO,the listener has a big chance(maybe his only this season..),to get a revenge on his old rival.he has his ground,nick mitchell wil have him surely spot on,so theres every chance for him to score today.as he is a big fav of mine,i will back him at small stakes.

    did anyone of you buy a copy of the racing post on tuesday?i hope so,because today it proved once again so valuable in finding a winner!i ll make it short:in the special national hunt pull out,i found out on the last page,that they mentioned trainer john quinn to have great success with his handicap/novice hurdlers over the past seasons.so i backed his horse in the mares hurdle handicap at uttoxeter(sorry,cant remember the horses name at the moment..),and it came back at 11-1!!i hope,you are not too angry with me for not giving the tip to you,but it only came to my mind later..next time,i will let you know.see you soon

    finally,i found an interesting eachway value bet in the closing bumper.and that is mr stickler from the king yard.firstly,a horse coming from his yard quoted at 10-1 is too good to miss.and secondly,the very talented jack doyle,whos riding on the crest of a wave momentarily,takes the ride.so,if you like,take it.good luck,mates..

    andy

    not a bad first run,he can surely improve for the outing.sorry guys,hope i can serve you better next time..

    If it works in Germany (and Exchanges aren’t illegal) you can get live racing from Betfair on all British and Irish racing.

    You will have to place a min £2.00 bet or whatever the Euro equivalent is but if you trade this at the same price it then becomes free.

    hi pompete.thank you too.yes,betfair is a possibility.i will keep you informed,guys..

    I’m pretty sure they don’t Andy though they do offer live radio coverage.

    There are a number of UK bookmakers that do off the service. To name a few;

    Ladbrokes
    Bet365
    Tote
    Stan James
    William Hill…

    Some charge for the service, e.g. a hefty (IMO) £5 charge per race. Others allow you to watch for free providing you have a bet on the race. The minimum bet rule varies, e.g. Ladbrokes require you to simply stake £1 whereas for most others it’s £5.

    Other sites that are primarily television channels, such as SkySports and AtTheRaces also allow you to bet with them and watch the races they cover although you normally have to pay a monthly subscription fee – even for the online service only.

    However, most of these services, if not all, require that you are based in the U.K.

    Depends on an individual’s interpretation of ‘new’ but she’s hardly that. Been around for a while and doing okay.

    I agree! She is a very talented rider and it’s a shame she left our shores. As to was Joanna Badger…….where is she these days – i had heard she was in the US??

    yeah,she was great too.had many famous moments with her over the years.
