Afternoon, Togo, and good luck with yours. Lucky 7 boiled first hurdle - Grey Mist set off like a bullet from a gun, opening up a 10l lead, only to be caught by the fav and 3rd fav in the closing stages :-( Took the placepot down with it, too. I know Johnston's a great trainer but almost every time i back one of his.....................................

[Togo]

He had one in earlier across the card Ken. He had posted 6 winners in his last 11 runners prior to yours running. :((

[Ken4155]

That only serves to prove my point, Togo :-((

[Togo]

Gossiping owes me nowt Ken. Bolted up again. I almost went for something else but decided to "stick" with what had come in for me previously. Good Call.

[Ken4155]

Good start for you, Togo. Mine came just a tad too late for the forecast.

[Togo]

I was looking at the Queen's horse for ages this morning and should have done the f/cast myself. Ne'er mind. Take the win and hope for "something" with it.

[Ken4155]

Win single on Mountain Angel gets me back on track and i've just had a nice little 50p rev f/c (Hey big spender!) in the 4.10 Wol with Turanga Leela and Maid For Life (did want T. Leela to win) which paid £108.26 to £1 stake so £54.13 back:-)

[Ken4155]

Think i've said it before on here, Togo, but i've never been one for the Classics. Yet i've had all 3 winners so far this year. I wasn't going to bother with the Derby - 7 runners from one stable demeans the event, imho - but i think i just might stick a pin in the card, now :-)
And Sir Frankie just gets better and better.

[Togo]

Well done Ken. 2 of my brothers did Frankie as well. Can't understand why I didn't. He rode Moore into the ground there. As you say he just gets better and better. Some jockey.

[Togo]

Can't see Circus Maximus going off at 14s tomorrow now Ken.

[Ken4155]

Aaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhh! Just watched Hateya (carrying 9-11) finish like a train but failed by a nostril to catch Corazon Espinado (8-13) :-( Still, 2 winners, 2 placed and the forecast - must be thankful for small mercies:-/ (First one at Donny has just won, though @ 7/1)
Frankie is on the outsider of the O'Brien septuplets and i don't suppose that Ryan Moore has got it so wrong in his choice of rides. As you say, Circus Maximus is best priced 11s. I may watch the market before parting with cash - if it goes out, i may be persuaded to part with a few quid e.w. :-)

[Maydup]

Thanks Ken and Togo, i'm a winner! I was browsing at lunchtime and saw your posts, then I wandered over to betting site where I had £10 in credit and put it on Gossiping.

Logged in this evening to find I'm £110 better off. Yehh Drinks are on me!

[Togo]

Cheers Maydup.

[Ken4155]

Good job you picked Togo's selection and not mine in that race, Maydup:-)) Well done and hope you've taken the £100 out and left a tenner in for another little punt.

[Maydup]

Yep, £120 in there with my original £10, so £20 left in and £100 withdrawn. We'll have a nice lunch out today.

[Maydup]

PS I'm going to leave the derby alone I think, what about you two?

[Ken4155]

As i said earlier, Maydup, one trainer with 7 runners in the field demeans what was once a spectacle. I fully respect what O'Brien has achieved but i'm not particularly a big fan. And thank whoever for that. His most ardent fans will have to back all 7, surely :-// What i have done is, with Willy Hill, had a fiver on one of their 'specials'; both Liverpool and Spurs to score, Joshua to win in rounds 1-6 and O'Brien to win the Derby @ 6/1. I can't see the Joshua fight going beyond 3 rounds, let alone 6, when Liverpool and Spurs meet there are always goals and i'm on all 7 of O'Briens horses. So, 6/1 seems reasonable :-)

[Maydup]

Good fun bet that Ken, good luck.
