Gee Rex was an inspired selection! With a different ride, the race was his, I think. Brilliant, started at 40s.
Yes, the Drasher was a fine pick. I wasn’t sure if you would have backed it, but you drew my attention to it. Good start. Sam’s Adventure was an eventful race with two or three(?) unseating, etc, but he ran well. Of course, I never got your odds. Sub Lieutenant I got at 33s, but then he went out to 66s, so I backed him again (small stakes) and ended up level the day. Not So Sleepy is an old friend of mine but after last time, I decided not to risk him…That’s how it goes. Beware the Bear was Joe’s strong tip, too, but the bear was still waking up from his hibernation. He doesn’t owe me anything after his Cheltenham win in 2019.
Thanks for your selections yesterday.
I am having just the one bet today on Fox le Bel at Thurles. Time he won.
Excellent day, VtC. I really enjoyed The Storyteller and Regal Encore. Campeador, the old warhorse, placed, too!
Scoir Mear was an inspired selection, VtC. He absolutely pulverised the field (albeit there were two non runners). However, on that form, I can’t see that any of those would have got anywhere near him.
Stupendous selection in the context. Did not follow your guidance, though….Brilliant.
Excellent selection. She ran a fine race, being kept at the rear until about three furlongs out, then showed her class, moving late into the lead, but pulling strongly through the finish.
Mr Carpenter was an absolute stunner!Spot on again! Mrs Sungold also took the selection. Chapeau!
I was about to congratulate you on your selections yesterday. Congratulations! Today, I intended to follow your lines and thought I had done so, until I found that I had somehow missed out Mr Carpenter! What a fantastic selection. I passed over the selections to Mrs Sungold who is far more careful than me and she bets in 25 pences…so she was literally quids in when she found the starting price was 100-1. Surely that must be one of your best ever? Anyway many thanks and I hope your betting bank is overflowing. Tom
Thanks VTC. Amazing selections today which I looked at after the last race at the Curragh.
I (fortunately) backied Underwrite…but did not see your Dalton Highway choice. Fantastic. I must try to keep up.
On Romantic Proposal, did you see that she reared in the stalls and threw off the jockey, who then had to re-mount. To what extent do you think might have affected the performance?
That’s a fantastic selection, VTC. Both Mrs Sungold and I are very grateful. I got 50s, which I think you did, too? (I keep telling Joe that you are on fire). Btw did you ever venture to Cognac? We venture to the Limousin.
