    Had a fairly barren week, no winners and I am having a few yankees and a few hail Mary's and a massive bet on Delta Work to win the Gold Cup. I also think at 22/1 PP ( 4 places ) you could do worse than have an ew squeak on Monalee. Unlucky to lose at Christmas ( jockey lost an iron on run in ) and if you take the fact that The Percy was an Aeroplane 2 years ago that RSA form looks better now than ever. 22/1 too big.


    2.10 Tiger Voice
    2.50 Lieutenant Rocco, Ramses De Teille
    3.30 Delta Work, Monalee
    4.10 Shantou Flyer , It Came to Pass
    4.50 Éclair De Beufeu
    5.30 Happygolucky , Everybreathyoutake

    Tuesday and Wednesday had me in a hole. I knew it would be that kind of week when Elixir D'ainay brought down Captain Guinness as I had an interest in both who were travelling well at the time. Yesterday then I experienced the other side of it with Samcro winning. So it is swings and roundabouts. So yesterday was a great day backing 2 winners. Pressure is off now for today.

    He got hammered by Allmankind previously, very hard to see that been turned around never mind factoring in the other ones he hasn't raced against.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,133 ✭✭✭akelly02


    well lads, i take it a each way yankee does not pay better prices in patrick powers ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 223 ✭✭dave81


    I've no time to really study in depth today. The first looks like a cracking renewal - goshen, all mankind and solo. I'm so torn. I will decide when I see money. Solo really calling out to me.

    Ill back clan des obeaux as my main fancy today. Sure he wasn't up to the standard last year but with the lighter compaign this year, I think he will be a different proposition if he gets into a rhythm. Nap.

    God luck

    I am not sure, someone posted earlier in the week that they were bog on doubles and trebles etc.

    If you won a nice few quid i would say they are capable of anything.

    I always accum online, when I can.

  • Site Banned Posts: 221 ✭✭SAM SO NITE


    Goshen has an inclination to run down his flights before he jumps them.

    I can see him beaten. Is he better than Sir Erec was?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,994 ✭✭✭c.p.w.g.w


    Just got a couple of texts from lads over at the festival who have told me to back Janidil in the 2.50

    An absolute disgrace that this event is continuing.

    I say this as someone who used to bet on horses especially on big races, I won't have anything to do with that industry again.

    When this all blows over it will be remembered that the privileged toffs and their hangers on that stink out the horse racing industry didn't step up to the plate like the rest of us. In this country horse racing has benefited from massive subsidies via the tax payer. When the dust settles that funding should be cut completely and the sport should die.
