    Cheers fellow Wengerite. :pac: Hopefully the good run doesn't end any time soon. :)

    Unless it's followed by a 100% streak for the Gunners, in which case reduce the stakes :P

    All of the horses lost and I'll sort out the bank later. Dougal, I'll get back to you too. :)

    Quick one..

    West Ham vs Arsenal (-1) - €50 @ 13/10 (PaddyPower)

    West Ham in disarray, Arsenal with a strong team out. Hoping for a comfortable win but who knows.

    Don't mean to steal advice on your thread pyro but when I started looking at racing and form I used irishracing.com,and still do. Use the horrse tracker function too,it'll alert you when a horse is running that you put in

    That was a good album. Don't like his music but I liked that album.

    Well done Pyro, dunno how you keep your determination but the results are always reflective of the effort, and you deserve results.

    Can't sleep so I put on a mental football accumulator for the lols.

    Birmingham v Aston Villa : @ 6/4
    Sunderland v Newcastle United : @ 11/10
    Liverpool v Everton : @ 23/20
    Tottenham v Manchester United : Draw @ 5/2

    €10 @ 39.51 (VC)

    The same bet is 29.23 with SportingBet. What a scandal! Hasn't a hope of coming in but it'll keep me entertained.

    The above 2 horses lost, along with the football bet. I'll sort the bank later.

    Wasn't going to back this one but I will just in case she wins, as I've been on numerous times without success.

    2:20 Wolverhampton - Lewyn - €30 @ 2/1 (PaddyPower)

    3:40 Lingfield - Anne Of Kiev - €20 @ 7/2 (WillHill)

    Cardiff vs Watford - €30 @ 14/5 (VC)

    Now for my mental one..

    Charlie Adam to score anytime vs Sunderland - €50 @ 10/3 (Coral)

    The reason - He should of scored a few in the last couple of games. Bound to get luck and he's my FantasyFootball captain. :cool:

    Total Staked - €150

    Back to square one if all lose.

    Wins at 9/2. Nearly free rolling now.

    The Jungle ran a cracker at Lingfield to come 5th but went on the inside, which wasn't favourable.

    The Sawyer was very poor.

    Watford haven't a hope vs Cardiff, losing 3-1 and Charlie Adam doesn't look like scoring.

    C'mon Charlie. :cool:

    Blackburn to beat West Brom - €40 @ 5/4 (VC)

    West Brom are awful away from home, that's good enough for me!

    Pedersen to score anytime - €7.67 @ 5/1 (Coral)

    3 of his 4 goals this season have come at home. Takes frees and looks back to something like his best. Just a few quid to level off the balance and it looks overpriced, especially as he's 21/10 with one firm!

    4:35 Wolverhampton - Mastership - €15 e/w @ 12/1 (Powers)

    Not really sure how he's 12/1, with Powers of all firms. A run anywhere near his Ayr Bronze Cup 3rd gives him a big chance and he has won here before. Looks well weighted and could be dangerous on a going day. Jockey takes off a handy 3lbs but he's a tricky horse. Still worth a shot.

    5:35 Wolverhampton - Loyalty - €10 @ 9/1 (WillHill)

    Unexposed and still progressing. C&D winner and possibly didn't handle the trip/track combo last time out. Looks overpriced.

    3:50 Kempton - Zip Lock - €10 @ 12/1 (WillHill)

    Cheers Doc, hopefully the end will end in 10 grand and not €0. :pac:

    Mastership was poor enough. Finished 6th in the end. Still interested in him if he goes down a few lbs.

    Loyalty flew home late but lost out in a photo by the smallest of noses! So close but yet so far.

    I'll sort the bank later.

    Bolton to beat Chelsea - €20 @ 9/2 (Betfred)

    Price looks too big. Chelsea still don't look anything near what they were and Bolton are a tough team to beat, especially at home.

    Zat Knight to score anytime - €10 @ 20/1 (ExtraBet)

    He's very dangerous from corners and free-kicks as he's an absolute giant. The price looks way too big and Chelsea could struggle to deal with him if Bolton get enough set pieces into the box.
