    It was in the last 3 from the off
    With a mile to go was struggling and was a distant last. It was so far behind, I couldn't see if it was pulled up

    I do noy know what happened,horse behind from word go,totally tailed off-something obviously amiss,Casimir Road ran just ok ,I backed it at 16s finished 5th.

    My tips have not been too good for a while now and I feel bad for anyone losing money because of me so I will give posting tips a break (the tips) not the punting for a while.

    J@ysus don't do that to us the week before Galway. No-one is forcing anyone to back anything, nice to see bookies take a hammering, I'm sure they're down a lot more than they're up thanks to your tips here.

    Only bet what you can afford to lose, anything else and its time to give it up becomes too serious

    Just to echo this zimmer, some very good tips.


    I am curious though (separate from zimmers posts) how some people can keep a straight face after giving a tip. The minimum requirement from a tip imo is the horse should be able to last the distance. You see some tips that are being passed on and the horse essentially struggles to leave the gate.

    I just want to point out, in no way am i criticising the people posting here the tips they have received. I'm questioning why the tipster giving the info would tip some of these horses in the first place... is it just to be able to lay the horse?

    Can't blame the jockey, was heads up, heads down on the line.

    Beaten by a nose.

    Wood breeze in 6.50 Galway at 12/1. Katie rides and word direct from yard in horse is expected to go well and has a good each way chance. This race is very competitive so don't go mad. Take an e/w punt

    I saw that as well
    I thought it was strange as all favorites placed

    The racing post has €8.20 on the bottom of the results page
    I'd imagine that is more correct
    (a little slower than Cantonesque)

    Mate of mine got it but as I thought it was very low with all favourites placed

    Wood breeze runs again in Galway today 3.15, connections are very happy with horse form and are very confident of another each way place at odds around 10 to 1. Ruby rides today and I'll be on anyway. Again don't go mad, he is up against a very good horse in pyromaniac . Each way advised again.

    Caution, horse is reported lame in box, vets to examine to see if fit to race, either way can't be good news if horse is lame. Will update with any info I get
