Good punt on Pavalacini Run today even allowing for the non runners. There's one tomorrow night I think they're going to back. Will post it once I'm on

Peintre Celebre · 22-09-2016 07:41PM

All his best form has come over course and distance, Twistsandturns is down to a good mark after some poor turf runs. He had been backed last time when a non runner here in a much better race despite being badly drawn. This is a bad race tomorrow had a chunk at 8/1

Peintre Celebre · 23-09-2016 12:32PM

Not sure why I took so long to watch the Wire

BumperD · 25-09-2016 10:06PM

Anyone watching the tour championship? McElroy just eagled the 16th to move within 1. Big pay day if he wins

BumperD · 25-09-2016 11:08PM

Phenomenal from McElroy

Then fluffed a 6ft putt for $10M. Mad.

BumperD · 25-09-2016 11:31PM

11.5million putt lipped out. He's not making it easy on himself ......

BumperD · 25-09-2016 11:35PM

Back to the par 3 . Lot of water on this next playoff hole. I'd shxt myself on the t box :pac:

Francie Barrett · 25-09-2016 11:36PM

Don't watch golf often, but now I know why. Feckin' hate these gobsh!tes on course whooping and hollering.

Francie Barrett · 25-09-2016 11:41PM

I see some poor sap on Betfair has just bet over 400 quid on Emiliano Grillo despite the fact he's not even in the play-off and can't win :pac:

BumperD · 25-09-2016 11:44PM

How do betfair even allow that occur

BumperD · 25-09-2016 11:49PM

That was a big save

BumperD · 26-09-2016 12:00AM

McElroy must have slipped more a Benjamin to screw that shot up.

Peintre Celebre · 26-09-2016 09:37AM

Tizzard to be champion jumps trainer 50/1. Has got 14 of Potts horses including sizing granite, a 20% increase in numbers. Had 1.4 million in prize money last year and has Cue Card and Thistlecrack chasing this year and the high class Native River. Worse 50/1 shots out there

krustydoyle · 26-09-2016 09:42AM

Now the Tizzards wouldn't of been top of my guest list for the Potts.. Does this mean Burke will be traveling back and forth now too??

I backed it with Hills, Powers and BF were 50s too at time of posting possibly Betfred too. Not surprised there's a bit around for it

jimjamcos · 26-09-2016 06:16PM

Cheers lads, got a bit of the 50s

Peintre Celebre · 27-09-2016 04:20PM

A strong fancy tomorrow night, Athletic is down to a mark of 64 and drops into a class six, his last run in anything less than a class four was two years ago when he won a handicap by 7 lengths at Newmarket off a mark of 66 and just failed to follow up under a penalty. He has plenty of good form this year in higher class handicaps even his run two starts back at Windsor would be good enough here. I'd have backed him at 8/1, 12/1 is massive and I've had the equivalent of a 5 point bet my first in a while. Be disappointed if he didn't go close and we didn't beat SP

Straight down from class 4 to class 6 as well. I backed this at Chelmsford a few months back, got a good price the night before and it was backed into favourite, it bombed. Hopefully the step down in class and 5lb claimer gives this plenty in hand. Will be doing it straight cause I don't trust it to place. Good luck.

Trainers strike rate would make rothwell look good. The drop of two classes gives hope but trainer form is dire.

Peintre Celebre · 28-09-2016 10:08AM

Ya fair point bumper but I don't pass too much heed when it's a small yard whose runners often go off massive prices

Peintre Celebre · 28-09-2016 10:15AM

Please god Gigginstown send their 60 horses from Willie to Tizzard

BumperD · 28-09-2016 01:01PM

The drop in two grades gives him his best chance in a long time, few quid on him too by the looks of things, hope he does the business

Peintre Celebre · 28-09-2016 09:20PM

Never involved after missing the break disappointing at least I beat SP. Hopefully Teak can get a bit back Friday.

BumperD · 29-09-2016 03:47AM

Clonmel on tomorrow. This is a sure sign the nh season has begun :pac:

Copper_pipe · 29-09-2016 08:25AM

I see on Facebook that Gordon Elliot is looking for more staff!

He must have got a delivery of horses

Beef or Salmon · 29-09-2016 09:49AM

Was looking at the entries for Gowran Saturday, Smashing trained by Mouse Morris, will he be joining the Tizzards?
