    Yes you are a total failure! The horse has continued to climb up the weights without winning and tonights race is a better race in my opinion to his last. Personally i would like to see a claimer riding him and taking a few pounds off his back beacuse hes not the most difficult of rides. He travels well into his races. Not for me today.

    I respect your opinion as I am sure u know a lot more about racing than I do.However,I feel his run on July 9th should have produced a win and I blame Hayes for that.

    Good call. Goes to show what difference a class jock makes :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 313 ✭✭smartaform


    well done - that's the beauty of racing - NO ONE KNOWS BEST lol...
    The best advice ever given to me was to follow my own line of thought, then you can't blame anyone like sooo many people who bet do.

    Won easy..Murtagh never used the stick once...N1 Kauto :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    Thats probably my last winner for months but I think speedy senorita has a squeak at Beverley 3.15.A good 7 lb claimer,fair draw and ran 6 days ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 823 ✭✭✭Kauto


    Credit where its due. I backed the second. A horse i got a right touch out of in Galway is running tonight in Leopardstown. Few are chosen. Was waiting for weeks for it. Won by 10 L in a 1 mile handicap off 60. up 20 pounds for that. 5 pound claimer on board. so really off 75. Thats not going to stop her. She looks a cert to me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    Thanks mate.That 6.55 is one hell of a trappy handicap.The race I referred to when Hayes was riding funatfantasia was won by rose hip.See who's on rose hip tonight?Yes,Murtagh.Smullen claimed to ride for Weld.desert mile is not a no hoper.I think 50p e.w.on desert mile at about 14/1.Good luck with yours.

    you could be right here, but i also fancy DUAISBHANNA 16/1 EW to place in this one, perhaps the 1-2..

    I feel the Bolger yard is not firing on all cylinders.

    I thought you would be on speedy at Beverley 3.15 but obviously I was mistaken.

    I knew for sure it would win when I got stranded on a bloo*y bus and saw the last furlong.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    I think rathrockscourt in the first at Tramore is not without a chance,even if it is carrying the extra burden of my tip.No inside info,just a hunch-b/f with Ruby up last time,good claimer this time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 823 ✭✭✭Kauto


    Karaking in the 6.10 tonight. 4/1. Got tip for this last week. Running tonight. Expected to win. Also think that Decoy Daddy is overpriced in the second race at 7/1. Would have been closer in the Galway hurdle but for being hampered at the last. Looks an each way bet to nothing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    Just received complimentary tickets,bet vouchers AND drink tokens for Kempton tonight.First time to a horse meeting over here.I think ghazwah has a good chance in the 7.10.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    Henrietta Knights horses have been so out of form I was thinking of asking her if she wouldn't mind letting me have a go.Still,when she fits form,is she a whizzer.She has 1 in the first at Southwell today at long odds-orfeo conti.Might,and only might be worth a small e/w.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,223 ✭✭✭pro_gnostic_8


    LOL !!!!

    Winchester falling at the last hands Orfeo the race ................. winning at 22/1.
    (At worst would have been second.)
    Henny's stable is deffo returning to form.

    Very well done indeed, Miseeire. Hope you were on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭miseeire


    Only 50pe/w Pro but a winner is a winner.

    I saw it this morning, but couldn't touch it with the form. Fair play, great pick. you're on a bit of a roll. keep it going.

    Well,when the 1 in front falls at the last,u must say it was jammy.Sure it wouldn't happen if I had a tenner on it.

    No matter, they are there to be jumped. Still good call.
