4/1 in what looks a proper even race

Crap draw and everything needs to go right for him.....it worked out for a few similar railers drawn wide in the greyhound Derby heats at Wimbledon but they were blessed with more early pace than him and it seems certain that there will be trouble in the race so hope he has his best Westmead Hawk instincts going to avoid it all and snatch the prize. Can not dessert him after backing him at 50/1 but would have liked to have seen him in a more balanced contest with him as one of 2 railers (the first 5 traps are all railers, Tr 6 is a wide seed), as then he would have had a great chance to do the business.

Saying that the trainer was pretty bullish in his comments in the Racing Post about tonight and just how good he might turn out to be.

Fingers crossed.

He's screwed in T4 then if the 1st 5 are railers

1st bend should be interesting

Some would say that...I'd say he's got to use his intelligence to escape any bother then power on to the finish.

Worst advised tip of the year IMHO is the Sun claiming the Diamond of the Day is Man U to score against Arsenal at 30/100. They may well do but a national newspaper picking that as an advised bet when they can go through without scoring and encouraging people to bet at those sort of odds is a bit off in my book.

Outrageous betting weekend for me the highlights below.

Lows -

Had Murphy in the snooker at 16/1
Had Woods in the golf at all sorts of prices. Lost, plus the usual tips.
Had Quins -10 against Salford. Lost
Had Rainbow View and Rip Van Winkle in the guineas
Had Hatton outright.

Total Loss - Alot

Highs

Had LIverpool -2 v Newcastle (got to love Lucas)
Had a Spurs/City double
Had Bradford and Hull singles and double off Scratch
Had Hull -4 at 11/8
Had Levet in the golf at evens with 7 holes left
Had a Ryan Moore horse yesterday at 7/4. Desert Creek. Not noteworthy other than the fact I threw everything in my Centrebet account on it.....£70 at 7/4 £100 at 15/8. Ludicrous betting but luckily it won

Total Win - A lot more than I lost!! Reckon I'm about £300 up for the weekend but was literally betting on anything all weekend. I've hardly slept and I think I'll be cooling off for a while.
