    Right this is my first time posting here so go easy. Its actually for my mate. He's flat broke but got €90 to go gambling Thursday out in Gowran park, Kilkenny. Its just horses he says, lads do any of ye have any good tips for him? He needs more money, and is desperate for a few wins. Cheers lads.

    I know you don't want to hear it, but if I don't say it someone else will, and it is being said on here on a nearly weekly basis.

    If you are broke and can't afford to gamble, don't!!!

    Anyway if someone does have a tip for Thyestes day please do post 'em as i'm going myself...

    Edit: Admission to Gowran Park Thurs will prob be €20, so he will only have €70 to gamble. (€67 if he buys a racecard)

    So Thyestes looks set to go ahead tomorrow. I'll be there.
    Torn between Alpha Ridge 8/1 and Selection Box (Pyro) 22/1 for an ew bet.

    Anyone any other fancies for the race or for the rest of the card?

    At least its not called 'The Christmas Hurdle'.
    I got so confused last week I gave up the brandy.

    Mourad should win the 1.45 but price will be crap.
