going back to the stories that roonaldo and live wired used to post, here is my first one:

some idiot started talking to me and my mate on gold cup day while we were having a beer in the pub and watching the racing. bit of a regular in this drinking place by the sounds of it and reckons his phone is like a hot-line during the flat season, getting winners left, right and centre. claims he'd met sheikh mohammed and the other godolphin top brass, got given a team godolphin fleece and other goodies as he is that well linked to the yards, tried to tell me bin suroor and al zarooni were brothers , and that he has heard from 'inside sources' that frankel's target for this season is the derby . when i said to him that frankel had sidestepped the derby last year and wouldnt be eligible this year as it is a race for three year olds and frankel is now four, he immediately got his mobile out and, from what i could make out, was sending a text saying 'is frankel allowed to run in the derby?'. another cracker was him saying he had noticed a horse run well during cheltenham week, but to keep it to ourselves as he didnt want the info getting around before its next run - the horse? that little known hurdler overturn . "overturn ran well, watch for him next time" - second in a champion hurdle speaks for its self, while overturn is usually a reliable yardstick anyway - if we dont know where we stand with this horse by now then we never will.



i felt a little embarrassed for him by correcting the numerous gaffe's he made (countless more i've forgotten as the beer was in full flow by the time the foxhunters started) so we thought we would make the best of a bad job and leave for the place up the road. torn between two minds whether to pop back in one saturda afternoon and see what other pearls he comes out with.

plenty pocket (hereford), first in command (southwell), and dawn commander (m/rasen) all look to have outstanding chances today and the treble looks tempting.

however, havent had a bet on this standard of racing for ages and my bank is reaping the benefits so will leave it and see which one of the three lets the treble down .

yeah i read that it'd been pulled out of a race not so long back when the money had came for it, looks interesting today.

too many bent trainers operate on the aw at such a low grade.

there are enough reasons for me to leave pp and dc at the prices too, will keep monitoring the racecards but hopefully will prove profitable having the patience to wait for aintree and punchestown.

something must be up with plenty pocket, drifted like a barge and finished last.


anyone else noticed that paddy power are taking bets on several matches at wrestlemania?

Re: Betting Chat : Tue Mar 27, 2012 7:07 pm  

after plenty pocket got beat and the next one won i was tempted to have a look at dawn commander, but 1/3 on a horse running at market rasen in the chelt-aintree gap doesnt exactly set the pulse racing.

yeah, let's speak to some of the wwe scriptwriters and get a max stakes acca whacked on.
