    Can't remember leaving the darts. Let elusive in Paris cure my hangover. 14/1 v big

    €6.50 a pint was rough!

    Dove Mountain gone to Wolverhampton tomorrow, and is entered on Tuesday, so could go again under a penalty if winning.
    jockey booking is a big plus as Queally is 2-2 on the horse.

    Was at the darts myself lads. Was rough on the head and the pocket! :-(

    Our Duke in Thurles and Penn Lane in Huntingdon to hopefully fill a nice double tomorrow. Both well fancied.

    Just by the by, Sinn Fein are promising to bring in a 3% tax on all winnings for Irish customers, that bookies wont be allowed to swallow. Will basically make gambling in this country a complete waste of time (and money), and will likely kill the racing industry. I'd hope no semi intelligent person is considering voting for them tomorrow regardless, but if you were, hopefully that proposal will put you off

    I would sooner vote for daesh

    I presume that while it would be a disaster for bookie offices there would be ways around it online, either way we won't be worrying about it this election

    You'd want to be a moron to vote Sinn Fein anyway. Anyone see the letters to the editor in the Indo today 'enda kenny whose honesty and work ethic are undisputed' :pac::pac: Cecilia McGovern in Milltown another moron

    A bit of a murmur for catchy lass in the 7 o clock, not reliable but I will chance it anyway

    Those luas drivers should get the sack. Unions are some pain in the arse

    Ya I backed it at 9/1 last night but not much fuming now. That last race at Dundalk I backed the third. That means I backed the first four home in recent weeks and not one winner :rolleyes:

    That's sickening. It will come around

    Few better ways to spend your morning than watching Judge Judy.

    This fat woman is being sued because she fell on her friend's dog and killed it. Outstanding


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    That commentator at Newcastle does my head in, always sounds short of breath and always says clicked along for a few strides. Annoying.

    A lot of money done on Unyielding there. Wonder did he get the pace all wrong, beaten a long way in the end

    He's a useless ****, got stung by money for him before.

    Talked myself out of backing Aurrilac at 9/2 wins at 9/4 :rolleyes: watch my two bets come nowhere now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Horse that Ericht finished behind last time placed in the Betbright there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,094 ✭✭✭✭Francie Barrett


    Racing has been absolutely crap for me in the last while. I see Chestnut Charlie won today at 16/1 - go through my history, I backed it almost every time until today. Fuming I didn't put a token bet on it today.

    Glad you got on I've had some awful luck lately the amount that I got done at odds on is sickening.

    There's one I'm interested in tomorrow Wells de Lune at Fontwell. Won a 3 runner hurdle race in France beating a smart horse who went on to win a listed hurdle and finish runner up in two gr.3 hurdles and has a rating in the mid 140s with Dan Skelton and the third was runner up in a Listed hurdle. He's been unplaced in three runs in England in handicaps but they haven't been devoid of promise, and he's down to a rating of 112. A change of tactics might suit the horse if they race him prominently like in France. Not a great rae and worth chancing at 8/1 (backing to lay off)
