On it last night. He was unlucky last time out in a competitive race. Thought he woulld have gone up a few pounds for that effort.

As colt points out though it's all about getting an uncontested lead.. colt have you checked out running styles of the main protagonists ?

Today was the day for another of Conor Dore's, Yul Finegold.... Gutted as I backed it in the shop and didn't take price... Smashed into 8-1 from double that FFS .. Good omens for Desert Strike hopefully

Good omens for Desert Strike hopefully Not looking at Oddschecker Ted, it's out to 8-1 now. That's ominous in anyone's book. I know there's an old adage about the horse not knowing what price it is but has a leg fallen off ?  |

So doesn't have to be well fancied . but if I'd backed it I'd prefer to see money for it.. LATE MONEY usually the most significant though so don't panic yet |

As punters we have never had it so good, free bets here, bonus offers there. And yet it gets harder. The signs we used to cling to get harder to spot. Be back tomorrow though whatever happens to Bonny and Desert  |

Disappointed, beat everything else easy. Always one. 5lb claim made the difference.

Or Happy Paddocks ? Definitely worth another shot, don't think it will be penalised much for that 2nd. Like you said, plot horse, 5lb claim for a 1 length defeat. Hard to swallow as i had it in a double with Yulefine Gold earlier. |

Backed for a place. £25 at 2 decimal, evens for the fractionists. Well pleased, even after Smarkets 2% it's more than paid for tonight's curry.
