Saturday - Am I The Only Person Who Creates These Threads?

Francie Barrett

6:10 Lingfield - Trident Tested 12/1. This one ran just last week after being stepped up in trip and led all the way around before fading a little at the end. Apparently stable jockey Kieran Fox thought that he didn't quite go fast enough, feeling that he could have burned off the challengers at an early stage. Going back out to Lingfield where it's won before and in a race that's just a week after a promising run suggests that the stable must be quietly confident of putting in a good show here. This is a tricky class 5 though and really need the favourite Scarpeta to continue flattering to deliver at this sort of trip.

Can't believe Elizabeth Browning is such a big price in the 2.05 at Gowran.. ( not off yet at 2.10 )

Oops... favourite well beaten and EB well beaten in 4th. The winner Butterflies is a half sister to Giant's Causeway and won like it but ran like complete crap in her previous races.

I have a 500 free bet I won in the local bookies to use
I was thinking von blucher or tanzeel later but might go for a less competitive race

I think Francie must be gone AWOL . He put it up last week at Donny .

HarshOstrich

No ya don't get the stake back
I put it on clear focus in the gowran 5.30
And I taught it was going to win going by the furlong pole.
If I put it on a 2/1 chance or evens and it lost I would be annoyed that I didn't take a chance.
