It means you lose whatever you have bet. Try Kauto Star instead. :)

8/1 PGC. I got him at 12 ;-)

In Mr Ben's spirit of going to a bookies - and I agree with him - I've just gone to William Hills and done a 30p lucky 15 for ?4.50 in total.

Peddlars Cross

Puchestown

Masterminded

Drumabaloo

Propa mug punting. It was great in there.

Serious bet on Masterminded and an on the nose reasonable stake on Quantitative Easing.

[Mick Mac]

Bookies can be good fun but I have uploaded the Ladbrokes App thing to my mobile and can now happily bet away as my hearts content.

Bit too easy to lose money really.

[????]

Peddlars Cross...yeah, good race too. 1st of my Lucky 15 :)

[Mick Mac]

Oooh Oooh. Need the Master to do the business.....

And he didn't...:(

[MrBen]

Just one bet today from me - ?20 e/w on Loch Long at 25-1.

This is propa mug betting too - it's a Scottish thing :-)

[Mick Mac]

4/1 winner with Ruby on Sanctuaire - but again down overall for the day.

[MrBen]

Loch Long right up there! But no cigar...ah well.

Here's a snap of the location of the cheekiest Coral in London as accessed by a lift from my office:

Then once you find it - here is the glorious site that awaits....

Edited to make this thread prettier again.

[MrBen]

Oops - wrong second pic...but I actually like it better that way!

[????]

Hey a 30p at 7/1 for me (I think that WH double it if only one of your horses come in)...but I've still Drumbaloo in the 5.15. I'm still in reasonable profit from my decent win yesterday.

[red devil]

1.30 - Synchronised EW - Non-Runner

2.05 - Quel Esprit Win - Unplaced

2.40 - Punchestown Win Unplaced (Last seen heading towards a French restaurant with Masterminded)

3.20 - Forpadydeplasterer EW - 2nd @ 10/1

4.00 - Quantitativeeasing EW - Unplaced

4.40 - Open Day EW - Unplaced

5.15 - Dare Me EW - Unplaced

Anyone got a spare 'Get out of jail free' card?..

[Mick Mac]

Sanctuaire was the winning favourite to go for in the 2nd last RD - but it did not quite get me out of jail. Although it certainly helped cheer me up.

Def feeling a lack of cofidence going into the last 2 days though. Great week for the bookies so far I'd guess.

[red devil]

I was doing a bit of gardening today MM, just popping in for the races, so missed out on what was happening with the markets so didn't have any 'lumps' today, but didn't lose much overall with the 'fun' bets...tomorrow's another day though

[Mick Mac]

Guess what - I'm off work tomorrow to do gardening and hopefully betting as little as possible - wish I had done the same today.

Today...

A big start of the big horse racing meating so far and here's a couple of less published "stats" from the Cheltenham Festival results.

There has already been a lot of shocks and upsets in today?s races.. ( I mean some people actually lost money..)

It could be a race meeting which is full of excitement! ( though definitely not for these "Nags" )

Citizen Vic (IRE)---------Today-----------Cheltenham------Fatal Fall

Casey Jones (IRE)---------Yesterday-------Cheltenham------Brought Down - Destroyed

All high quality , free range, lean "thoroughbreed " dog food now/soon..

W**F

( edited to take the harshness out )

[????]

...and today.

I will be doing Big Bucks in more ways than one.

[red devil]

Day 3 Tips...

1.30 - Jered EW

2.05 - Fredo EW

2.40 - Petit Robin EW

3.20 - Karabak - Win

4.00 - Atouchbetweenacara - EW

4.40 - Ma Yahab - EW

Gardening is the new Rock 'n' Roll Mick...

[Mick Mac]

Festival Bloodbath for Punters.....the headline in one of today's papers.

I have decided that the the form book goes out the window and its because all of the form is on soft ground over the winter and at Cheltenham they tend to run on good ground.

So last night I picked out horses who have won on good ground.

THEN - On the Morning Line they show me that that have changed the course from yesterday and are running on a new strip of turf AND have watered the course too! So its now Good to Soft, soft in places.

Best laid plans eh.

[????]

Get back in the garden Mick

[red devil]

At least you picked up some tips on turf laying MM...way to go!

Nice one Rhinestone Cowboy, I'm not really a betting man but put ?5 to win on Albertas Run at 16/1 (and ?5 on petit Robin) after seeing your post.
