    O'Hara's have changed the Leann Follain label. Almost walked out of the supermarket thinking they didn't have any

    Fairplay to him for getting away with it. Best of both worlds, he has.

    Looks like there could be a Dennis hogan affair on today at wetherby. It's a long way from Tipperary.
    Guessing which one will go in is another thing but I'm pretty sure it'll be the one in the 6pm

    I've since showered twice but the dirt isn't coming off

    Won't touch one of O'Briens this early. Any that win are serious horses. Keep an eye on Palace and the grand daughter of Urban Sea that won the Guineas trial as a result

    Filthy lucre

    Will pay for some more soap. I can't believe Liverpool might actually win the league

    It's crazy. Rodgers has done a fine job. It's in their own hands now.

    Variance can be a cruel or kind mistress. Of my last 7 soccer bets 6 have won and the other is Athletico at home to Chelsea

    Positive variance good, negative variance not so much!

    Not actually up that much for the year. On a good run now but February was torturous. All evens itself out, although Prem markets are always all over the place this time of year. The relegation haunted teams are always too short. The good runs are great, the bad ones shake you

    Hoping NFL draft day will see a huge swing in my fortunes however!

    Sunderland are 4 points adrift at the bottom. 2 games in hand but their next 2 are away to both Man City & Chelsea

    Rock bottom is still on hopefully, although I did hedge out of it.

    Lost about 5l by being hampered and boxed in. Have to think he'd have won. E/w money is nice but still disapponting

    Anyone any stats on how sendings off affect matched

    Chelsea were around 2.1 in play, dipped to 1.5 after the sending off. Touched what looks around 1.35 and settled back about 1.45. Seems excessive but that's just a guess

    I never back anyone at the beginning, always just have a punt on someone in the final round. Not a figure worth talking about, purely for entertainment.

    US masters this week. I like to do a few each yr in the majors. I've spread myself thin for some very small ew stakes on this lot. All each way Cabrera, Jimenez, Moon Bae, Huh, liessman. Amongst the favs kuchar/day/stenson would be my picks but for the buttons I'm putting on I've gone for the longshot value.

    All missed the cut bar 1 @ 200\1. What are the chances.....eh?

    Had Jimenez myself only because of the price. Also did Spieth who I thought was going to run away with when he went -8 but can't complain too much.
    Bubba played fantastic
