no, i mean if you put money on melbourne to finish bottom at big odds, will they pay out?

I am sure they wont refund losing bets on other teams!

Bets placed at 250/1 yesterday by 'folk in the know' apparently.

Captain Cee Bee you beauty

Yeah of course they will pay out. Its more likely they will refund losing bets on other teams as a good will gesture.

Treble for the weekend:



Bolton at home to Pompey 1/2

Newcastle at home to Ipswich 1/2

Norwich at home to Gillingham 1/2

Am on Dunguib @ 10/3 question marks over the ride it was given last time but it did'nt really gain on the on front two going up the hill but you just still get a feeling this horse is special, going to be some race this, Hurricane may well fly off in this..



Looking at backing Solwhit to place @ 11/8 Byrnes said it wouldn't run unless the ground came soft RP have it good but watered alot of its win are on heavy and soft ground but has won on good to soft an didn't put people backing it last month before the bad scope



Reve De Sivola @ 11/4 in the 6.05 beaten by Peddlers Cross at Cheltenham in its only race this year so comes here pretty fresh.

Parramatta





Had Canterbury ht/ft and Parra ht/ft. at about 5/2



Parra race into a 12-0 lead only to be pegged back and 12-12 was the half time score.

over the creek.3.45.perth 6/1

hurricane fly.5.30.punc 3/1



28/1 double





pat richards 10/1

phelps 16/1 (skybet)



for 1st try in tonight super league game

Hull (-icon_cool.gif and Wigan (-20) double. Had a change of heart about Hull.



In the football it's:



Sunderland 21/10

Blackpool 8/13

Forest 4/7

Huddersfield 1/2



Just under 12/1 I believe.

Hull -6 is widely available unless you want 11/10 on -8, which I never do.

Should of just followed Mullins this week you would be quids in.

Twist Magic @ 11/8 tomorrow the others have loads to find with it as long as it starts the race this time but it does love it round Sandown its won two Tingle Creeks here and this race last year 11/8 could look massive if its on form.



Carlito Brigante at Punchestown 5/2



6/1 the double

I'm so glad I'm poor at the moment and can't afford a bet as I would have put a decent amount on that.

Will be laying the heck out of Twist Magic after his antics at Punchestown earlier in the week - fine record at Sandown but these aren't slouches and he took a ferry to Ireland rather than fly, flew back and is now on his way to Sandown in the morning. He might well win but he's no sort of price at the moment.



Not sure of the 4yo Hurdle - will be backing Tarla if I can get 3/1 or bigger in the morning though, probs for a fair few quid and Diman Waters in the 5f 3yo Sprint Handicap at Haydock (where I'll be tomorrow night).

Made Oh Crick and Mahogany Blaze look like slouches this season.



11/8 and 6/4 are cracking prices I think, he won the Tingle Creek @ 9/4 and the VC Chase @ 11/8 both tougher races then this, if it runs it could win this like a 4/7 shot.



The nice people at Paddy Power give me my ton back in the week hope I don't give it back today





Hampshire Express is in the 5.35 at Punch @ 20/1 E/W



Remember pricewise (Tom Segal) had this as its Coral Cup horse, it unseated though its 2lbs lower then that day trouble is Mullins has loads in this and you would think they know which is the one to beat but a few on Mullins higher priced horses have won this week in the same races as his favs.

Tranquil Tiger in the 4.15 anyone?

Just had a big word for that.

Doubles and treble @ 10/1



Twist Magic

Paco Boy

Tarla

Paco Boy looks a great thing today.

I hope this doesn't go the way of the Arvika Ligeonniere gamble in December (took 11/10 SP'd at 2/5)





Hampshire Express is an interesting one alright - problem I see is that the pecking order at Mullins would indicate that Townend, Davy Condon, Emmet and Katie Walsh all elected to ride others before Squeak was given the call up for the ride.

Should of known it would be too good to be true.



Jumped off fine traded @ 1.14 on betfair and just hit a brick wall miles better then any of these on ratings

Had a big word for laheeb in 4:15 working like best horse in jarvis yard.

Thats what we like to see Mullins had that one spot on
