    MY NAP of the day is definatly BARTON SANDS in the 4:15 at lingfield.he went straight into the notebook after his last performance.he was blocked off and i am nearly sure he would have won the race as he finished like a train.he has won at lingfield before in this class which is a plus.i usually have a good record at noting these sort of horses so i feel very confident.
    5/1

    in another race 4:35 towcester - i am going for NEW LEADER.again this is another horse i noted from the past a i am sure he is going to win one of these sort of races soon and today looks like one of them days.
    7/2

    Really like the look of Barton Sands last time alrite. Cant se past Assoon in the 2.40 at chepstow. Although he's 4/6 on PP at the mo. Only other thing I'm gonna do is lay Tipp Topp in de 4.35 at Towcester. Scratch the dove looks good but I think New Leader can do them both

    i dont know how barton sands didnt win that race.he was the best horse by miles.once again he left it too late and finished like a train.ill give him one more chance next time because he definatly should have won that.cost me 100 euro.

    Entirely my fault :( Everytime I back one of your tips it has lost - when I see em too late they romp home.

    iloveireland, can I give you some advice, and hopefully you'll heed it...a lot of people on this forum like to read your tips etc but you could make it a little easier for them by adhering to the rules of proper sentence construction, i.e. start each sentence two spaces after a full stop and also use a capital letter at the beginning of each sentence.

    This will make it easier for your fans to read your posts.

    Thanks.

    Two spaces? Are you kidding around buddy?

    Tis one space, always. Think two spaces is a relic from the thirties, or forties ;)

    And also I believe in html two spaces don't even exist.

    Let's try. Here. With two. Spaces.

    Let's try. Here. With one. Space.

    One space is, I suppose, acceptable for boards chat, but by Jesus if you ever find yourself writing professionally, which I'm sure iloveireland could be considering, don't be sucked in by the one space brigade!!

    Q. Do I use one space or two after a full stop?
    A. Use one space.


    The older traditional use of two spaces following a full stop dates back to the need to approximate proportional spacing in mechanical typewriters, and hasn't really been necessary since typewriters were superseded by word processors and digital typesetting.

    HTML requires a specific instruction to insert more than a single space between any two characters.

    If you're writing in an HTML environment, limit your spaces. If your information is being copied and pasted from a word processing document, it's unlikely that more than one space will appear, no matter how many spaces you include in your text.


    :D

    Talk about annoyed, couple of months ago in college while lounging about in ladbrokes during another free lecture, two english lads stroll into bookies telling everyone within earshot about a horse called BAVARICA, needless to say the nosy part of me got the better of me ah sure a couple yo-yo's each-way cant do no harm. That day it was going well only donna caldwell held it too far back, and it came late with a blocked run to snatch 3rd. So i have been following said horse since, a couple of 000's here and there in between two 2nd's, and then today i only noticed as i was checking a placepot, BAVARICA 12/1 **** sake like, why didnt horse-tracker email me? And added to that i had midge's girl on my notebook again no email from horse-tracker, handsome odds the two of them were, my real grievance though is that i get an email after the MIDGE'S GIRL race saying you requested info about "horse" who ran today fcuking in a pisser, although my 3/4 lucky 15 makes it a bit easier to take.
