    However much ITV are paying Brian Gleeson it is way too much, all he does is make infantile gestures and voices while pointing to the bookies boards reading out one by one, the prices.
    He has irritated me for several years now and is not disappointing me this time around.

    ‘Keeps getting dumped’?, who has dumped him ? and anyone that fronts up on any TV is ‘egotistical and publicity seeking’, maybe you’re right on him getting dumped so please enlighten me by who as i am interested, thanks.

    Well for what it’s worth i like Chapman, it’s all opinions people….we all have one and for anyone thinking he was being disrepectable to cancer victims then i think you get offended so ridiculously.

    Very good, i just hope my main man, Matt the Chap is there to give us a great evenings entertainment, like marmite but i just love his style, just a shame he supports Tottingham.

    Just looked at the betting, WP opened 6/4 and now Evens which is a bit short for me, i’ve followed Vintager since the debut and last time out ran well giving weight to a horse that ran well at York recently despite pulling awfully hard so i’m on at 10/1.

    Definitly Red, ground trip course no problem and if trained in a different postcode would be shorter than the 16/1 i took last week so as they all say….i’m hopefull.

    people still writing off September(for next season)due to her size,but could it be a case that she is just a very good little ‘in like franco zola?

    Diminuendo springs to mind, top filly she was.

    Yeah Blue, could be a number of reasons I suppose, the “beating SP” angle is always the first one that springs to mind.

    I’m sorry to protract this but for a £200 (ballpark) profit over more than a year of multi bets with this high profile firm that cannot give me a simple reason for ditching me after a prolonged phonecall (paid by me) and an online ‘we’ll get back to you’ that they never did i am just astounded that i seem to be the only recipient of their wonderful PR, surely this has happened other punters ?.
    I’ve several other firms that i use so i am not going to continue boring this forum with this very unusual banning order they have issued me. :unsure:

    Blue, are you beating SP regularly, win or lose?

    VTC,i don’t keep records but i do bet the opening shows the previous afternoon due to the BOG, i do it with 10 other online firms and have never been told to foxtrot oscar for doing so, after 365 did their PR disaster on that young Irish lass i’m thinking some firms are just a joke.

    Years ago and new to the game i followed tipsters, paid big money to ex-trainer Tony Ingram for 2 weeks and numerous losers but it was a lesson well learnt that unless you are privy to the ‘actual horse’ in the ‘actual race’ then it is not advisable to follow a tipster.
    Over the years the only two i can take seriously, (wished i’d followed them), are Hugh Taylor and Mark Winstanley and my steel helmet is on for the incoming.

    I am often wrong but Natavia today prompted me to do a very rare ante-post bet, ok it was soften ground but the way she
    sauntered out of the stalls effortlesy put her opposition away was to me eyecatching to say the least.
    16/1 sounded good.
