I think I would have to leave it with my original pairing for now but if either did not turn up for this, I would love to be with Coronet. I thought that was a great run from her yesterday and 12-1 is generous.
That’s the Derby winner boys Delanor Rooservelt
Hi Botchy, I like him too and I was surprised that 33-1 is still on offer for him.
I was going to back just one horse in this and that is Lord Yeats at 33-1. I have bet him at 28-1 though as I want Skybets 6 places.
As it’s one of the big handicaps I have also bet two of them to win Natural Scenery and Wild Hacked who are both 16-1.
thejudge1 just finds any straw which enables him to stir it with the same old targets
Never known him to stir it with any posters, but those who have had disagreements with his hero on here actually
Hi kingbenitch, I do not think there was ever any suggestion that he was not impartial when his own horses were running, and he would obviously had to make sure of this. It was in other races where he repeatedly came up short, and his commentaries were often poor by being dominated with one horse.
He was the main commentator in my youth, and I spent far too long for a child watching racing with my Grandad, and he was not of a fan of O’Sullevan in the slightest. I can still hear my Grandads voice booming in my ear, shouting at the television ‘there’s other horses in the race man’ or ‘you’ve got the wrong bloody horse man’
With my Grandad being an influence at an early age, he no doubt steered me in my opinion, but I always found O’Sullivan very very overrated as well.
A night out with the lads from my Racing Club a few years back was a real eye opener for me. As usual the conversation was all things racing, and one of the lads mentioned O’Sullevan as peerless or similar, and I had to bite my lip as I thought I would be in the minority but I was amazed to find that as we went round the table that almost to a man nobody rated him as a commentator and mainly for the reasons which have been mentioned here by others
I have already bet Venice Beach here and now that the entries have been published I will have another try. I think that i might get better odds when the firms reshuffle their odds, but I have be Orderofthegarter at 25-1 each way.
Although I expected her to win last time out, I have taken Abingdon again, and I think that 33-1 is fair each way price at this stage as I would expect her to run here.
Nassau Stakes, Abingdon 33-1 ew with several firms
St Leger, Orderofthegarter 25-1 ew with several firms
Gigaset International- Remarkable at20-1 with Ladbrokes and Heavens Guest at 33-1 with several firms, and both are 1 point each way
My biggest bet of last season was in this race and it was Remarkable who took my dough. He was only out on Saturday there and did not run too badly. I have taken a risk, and went for him again at 25-1. It would not surprise me to see him not declared today though.
I have also bet Heavens Guest at 33-1 as I think that is an incredibly generous price for the horse.
Both horses are each way
My favourite day of the year to go racing, and although this race has lot some of it’s sparkle in recent times I still look forward to it. I have bet Benbatl at 20-1 and I would love to see him given a chance here though I have not caught connections plans for him
Not a mention on Racing UK tonight about this shameful
Steve, RUK broke the news during their Hamilton coverage, and did discuss it. I do not know how long they went over it though.
Unbelievable that this has happened, and thoughts go out to his poor family.
Hi Pat, it is the usual carpet bombing approach from me
Can I also ask a quick question. I think it has been asked before, but I cannot remember the reason that you do not permit Betfair prices. It is not a big issue incidentally, I am just curious
