Cracking card on tonight at Wimbledon with the featured races being:

Derby Plate final at 8.45.

Champion Hurdle Final at 9.25.


And the biggie, Greyhound Derby final at 10.12

Ballymac and Wise Thought are joint favourites at 9/4 in from 5/2 with Fear Zafonic a huge 11/4 after getting T1 thats its waited for since the 1st heats were drawn.

Our very own Espanyolswan having 2 runners in the final which he bigged up from ante post at huge prices




Anyway serious stuff as the female goes to get me racing post.

My treble placed last weekend at odds of 34/1 and a cheeky tenner wagered

Freedom Man @ 5/1
Ninja Jamie @ 4/6
Ballymac Ruso @ 5/2


And ive 20 on Ballymac at 5/2

Oh why did you have to go for Freedom Man...you'll jinx him!!!!

Think Ninja Jamie is no odds on shot from Tr 4 as like Fear Zafonic in the Final he is a different dog from Tr 1. It would not be the first time he's blown a big prize at odds on and though he is the class act I think Head It On Ellis might beat him and kennel mate Kryptonite.

Farloe Reason to finish last at 5/1 is interesting as he may have no where to go and is not as strong running as Kinda Ready who I think is a false fav in the finish last market.

Ninja will bolt out from 4 and it will be all over by the 2nd bend

Any other fancies from the earlier races, its a cracking card and some short price favs in there.

I'd not take odds on on him proving your theory correct.

Pre Sky's coverage I like Rally Town in the 6.50 (2/1)

Droopys Zach's form was franked by Plough Lane winning a heat in the Cock O'The North on Thursday so he will do in the 8.25 (9/2 this morning now 7/2 and possibly will start 3/1)

Think Flying Winner will get back on track but not a betting prospect after how she ran last time and her cramped odds (4/6)

Would like to see Love Mac who did so well getting to the Semi's picking up the 8.05 and at 7/1 and likely to drift he is a chance of a decent pay out.

So to put you on the spot, what you fancy in a nice little treble?

Though of course the real ones I want to win are Freedom Man (16/1) and Glenard Sunrise (100/1) or Kinda Reason (100/1 + 66/1) but thats asking alot I guess
