BF disparity plus not strong in ring never lies

that's how I see it also, rarely a good sign


thanks for posting francie, I'd rather have the info anyway and when these win its a nice surprise and if not then it's just a tenner down the drain for me

Unfortunately many of the "serious gambles" posted here end up drifting and running like they were never trying a yard. I'm not criticising, we are all able to ignore if we wish, just interesting.

Lads don't know what planet your on. The amount of time I've seen gambles like that you can spot them a mile away. Any trainer that was really trying to win race like that wouldn't finish like that. It's called a bookies gamble. Someone knew who was laying on BF. Have to say whenever you get info that's supposedly inside info it's always duff stuff.

It was not a bookies gamble. I know one of the people in the syndicate who is leasing the horse. He personally had a four figure sum on the horse (he split his stake several ways and had me put 500 on it alone so I know the punt was genuine).

I don't understand the mentality with some people here. I think we are all old enough (I wont say sensible!) to decide whether or not to back a tip.

I've won a few quid here thanks to tips not only from Francie but others here too. I've also lost money. Its my money and I understand the risks. The questioning of tips shouldn't be a factor win or loose.


What's that Francie? Stick my hand in the fire you say....?

Iv followed plenty of "tips" on here from francie and co.
A tip is a tip. Take it or leave it.
I personally take the tips from 3 or 4 lads here seriously as they have proven quite a few times that they are coming with good info and not from a lad that said he got a tip at work.
I can't pick me nose these days so appreciate any info with a bit of weight behind it. Francie is a trustworthy punter and I owe him a few pints for his tips and picks over the last 12 months.

Lads, there's a serious gamble going on a horse tomorrow. I was handed one of many envelopes this evening and sent to a bookie to get on. Huge sums going onto this one. Will reveal the bet first thing tomorrow morning if anyone's interested.

Ok
ive been involved in horse racing as an owner

The absolute worst tipsters you can listen to are owners ,part owners , friends of owners and leaseholders
when u sign the forms for hri and the turf club they actually post you a pair of rose tinted glasses .........free

you are automactically a so called big man

giving envelopes to your friends to get on for a 4 figure sum just makes you a knob
thats a fact .........
Rails bookies will take a few grand ,even in dundalk so no need to spead the bets around

Brt ur man feels thick after after losing upwards of 2.5 grand on a leaseheld horse

As an aside,did you put the 500 on in one lump as I went in to Boyles the other morning and wanted to put 100 ew on a horse at 16s,so I put 50 ew on and went in about an hour later with the other 50ew and she grabbed the phone stright away and spent an age in the back office!!!
