    Ok, it has been very quiet around here so i'd thought i start a challenge. See if we can make 100Euro each week by sharing our bets. I mate it to 89 last week so not too bad. I normally use betfair for in play bets cos it's safer and i don't mind low odds but no lower than 1.2

    Anybody up for the challenge?

    I will post up my next bet soon.

    Just weighing up my first bet, it looks like Leonid Glow in the Ayr 2.30 I'll go for a Place Only 3 Places at 1.36 which would return 27.27 euro.

    edit confirmed

    Horse wins so €26.67.

    Mike.

    Fistral is my next bet. 26.67 for a Place Only 3 Places.

    Blown bet I'm out of the race. Dreadful stuff from the top horses. :(

    Mike.

    ok, yer gonna think this bet is just daft....but...... in the darts tomorrow. ronnie baxter vs andy smith, i reckon its going to be a tight match, so there will be a good few legs. anyways il get to the point.

    total 180s in the match
    over 5.5 (11-10)

    its worth a bet.

    Get on Wayne mardle to beat Barney in running in the darts matchplay, he was 23/10 at the start and is two legs down but has just hit form so you should pick him up at 2/1 now.
