Just put

£25.00 E/W Big Fella Thanks 3:45 Aintree

Ask the cashier to put the price on for you etc. as if you do it yourself they don't have to honour it (just in case the manager is in a bad mood when you collect etc)

RIP Exotic Dancer and Mel In Blue

Just dont put 3.45pm like Martin says.

You might want to put 4.15pm instead.

I was on about this to a guy at work yesterday who doesn't really follow the horses like me. He asked what time the race was and I said it's usually about 3.45, after then checking I found it to be 4.15 and wondered if I had been mistaken about past races or whether they have changed it this year?

Anyone know?

And for the record I'm all over Comply Or Die, think David Pipe is a real chip off the old block and has laid this one out perfectly for a crack at it again. Also backed Darkness and a little e/w on Knowhere.
