Currently 11/4 with Ladbrokes...Hue and Cry.

About three weeks ago I was drinking with a well connected chap who told me to look out for this one when he finally hits the race course. My horse tracker mailed me yesterday today with the news that today is indeed the day. A win is expected.

CiaranC

Im all over this like a rash.

dvoakes

blahblah06

rabbitinlights

Backed it @ 5/2 in hills. won't be able to watch though so by all means if anyone sees the race I'd like to hear a summary! tks.

scargill

drifting like a barge on betfair - stuck a few quid on at 5.4

Black and Tan seems popular...we'll see what happens


now 6.4 !

blahblah06

got it at 3/1 on pp

fade2black

as does hot n holy.....Made a quick call there...there's no obvious reason for it they say...could be the support coming in for the others....

Apologies in advance if there is something amiss lads.

blahblah06

4/1 on PP god why didnt i wait LOL. come on horsey

^CwAzY^

5/1 on pp now

fade2black

Doesn't look good. The market told the story. Sorry again about this lads...I called again this morning to make sure and I was told that a win was expected. Am raging.

blahblah06

ah sure not to worry not the end of the world

bookiebasher

drifted big time on the exchanges

blahblah06

did it come anywere at all

rabbitinlights

14/1 Wind instrument wins
6/1 Hot n Holy 2nd
10/1 sky mack 3rd

fade2black

I'm sure I'm being cursed big time for this...but the money did tell the story unfortunately. I got on early cause I firmly believed in this one and thought he'd shorten up considerably come post time. I assure you all we're only loaning this money to the bookies....there's a couple of big punts coming in the next couple of weeks and I'll be better informed for them.

Some will think I'm talking through my arse, a loser will do that for opinions but others might know different.

Sorry again lads.

^CwAzY^

Boo-urns

I think everyone here is big enough to know a tip is just that, a tip.

Maybe next time......

scargill

something fishy there - price was steady all day and then it drifted before the off ! its a pisser when that happens especially when you've been given the tip in good faith and then you pass it on !

no worries - we'll get it back another day !

sector

Don't panic fade, i'm sure all here know your tip was in good faith & well intended. I'm only sorry I told someone who backed it too, argh!

tks

scojones

not the end of the world buddy. Cheers for the tip, keep 'em coming

bookiebasher

get your money back on the arsenal v reading match tonight .

Back on there being more than 2.5 goals in the match at 11/10 as I think this is a stand out.

fade2black

I went on infor given a few weeks back that he was supposed to win on his debut...anything could of happened since then so I'm partly to blame for this one.

We'll get them again.

dvoakes

no worries fade, thanks for the tip


saves me picking them out of the air the way i usually do.

fade2black

Stick with us here Dvoakes, bit of discipline and you'll be up in the long run

fade2black

Ok....

I'm not going to post this in the tips section and I kinda hope this post goes unnoticed but I'll proceed anyway. Around the time that I got the Hue and Cry information (who I believe will still be a useful horse, no matter what happened the other day) I was given a slip of paper with the name of a horse..Aux le Bahnn, a talented pointer. He's entered in a bumper on sunday, a race that hue and cry had been in, but instead went for that ill fated race the other day.

Now, I won't have to tell most this but this is one of those tips where you really are taking a gamble because a lot of the horses are unraced and it helps to see a market etc but the connections are bullish about this one's chances....So again...not a tip...more of an eh....I dunno...eh...Crumbs..wanna help me out here.....

So you're basically saying it's an absolute certainty and we should all put our wages on it?

A lay?

fade2black

You're a bad man.

fade2black

Anyway...

RP forecasts him to be 7-1 2nd favourite.

Early prices have him at 9/4 favourite. Bit of a difference there.

scojones

Cheers fade, I took the 9/4 price

fade2black

I didn't...just in case it does a Hue and Cry....

20LEgend

Congrats Master K

fade2black

Eh....

20LEgend

Sorry mate, got my names mixed up long night last night!

fade2black

Hope ya backed him mate....welcome to the forum.

20LEgend

I did surely. got him at 7/2.

Very impressive

Morgans

great info lads. congrats.

blahblah06

nice one fade i got on it at 5 euro ew 10/3 thanks

fade2black

Looks like a very decent prospect.

masterK

Good stuff there fade. Got dragged out shopping so wasn't back in time to back it. Damn women and shopping!

fade2black

Ah I was fully expecting you to have all your wages on!!!

masterK

I was going to back it this morning, but it was 9/4 so I said I'd wait until closer to the off.

fade2black

I did the same myself...I didn't enter the jungle of manicidal women this afternoon so I had plenty of time to get my bet on.

scojones

Great stuff fade, never came off the bridle

Crumbs

Cheers fade. Top stuff.

I was looking through the entries for the weekend and noticed Hue and Cry is entered in the bumper at Windsor on Saturday, looks an intented runner too as Mick Fitz is confirmed to ride. Judging by the entries from the top stables it looks like being a fairly hot contest. His racecourse experience should be a big advantage.

I've just been told that he will be running again before Christmas but it won't be this weekend (which we know at this stage). It will be another bumper though and hopefully we'll be getting our money back.
