Only one bet for me today, Balko Des Flos in the big one
10/1 currently with Rachael on board
OK he hasn't built on his Ryanair, but if he retains anything atall he should be in the mix here
Can't have the Storyteller after LTO, Shattered Love the obvious danger for me
at 10's, Balko looks very promising to me on seasonal debut

Some decent racing today and busy day for me.

1.30 Notthingham, Missile, still bits of 6/4 available. Easily my strongest bet of the past few months, even pre covid. I've been told the horse is beating some big names at home that I won't mention, and is expected to win by a decent margin.

Just for a bit of a laugh, I've put a tenner on this yoke/yolk. Had to deposit in my one and only account. I might become Grandsonofgoat if this comes in.

EDIT: Just gone out to 2/1. Ya gotta laugh. Probably finish last.

1.40 Bath, Spanish star. Looks a false fav to me. Can't see it being in the first 3. Laying 3 places around 11/10

1.52 Wetherby, Midnights Legacy, horse is around 13/8 and I've backed it to win. Definitely a 2 horse race between Midnights Legacy and First Impression.

I'll be having about 6 or 7 more bets. Should be a decent days profits.

Well? Nearer last than first or what. Would love to know what it was beating at home. Gosden running next to it maybe.

You might be new around here! Goat is a deluded punter who has contacts as far away as the backwater USA tracks, who strangley enough only gets word 2-3 mins before the 10.42 at Keenland or such.

I offered him a challenge to back up his fantasy choices, but he declined. Seems like the info he tells he gets can’t be supported with genuine cash.

Nah, man. I have no excuses. I've followed the Goats saga for the last couple of years on here.

This season he seems to have cut down a bit on the bull$hit but I should have known alright that the giveaway was "I knows it, but I can't share it with yous"

He's been having a few results of late too, tbf. As I only bet about 2 or 3 times a year the 10 spot won't kill me. The funny thing was the price. "There's still a bit of 6/4" says he.... Started off nearer 3/1
