    Well done EC.

    I'm going to go out on a limb with one tonight at kempton. 7.50 race, go dolphin run three. World fair is the outsider. Ran in a good maiden at goodwood, missed the break, hit the rail, made good ground, met a wall of horses and wasn't beaten up. 33/1 in places when I backed it ew. Few quid coming on betfair now.

    Missed it but nice one EC


    Shocked at the drift on Lady Crossmar in the last at Kempton I backed it at 7/2last night and now out to 8/1

    Fingers crossed but confidence not very high.

    Missed out on the each way money but dug in well at the end and back up to a mile will suit.

    Going for a fairly decent lay today on Moonvoy in the Salisbury.Owned by people who are fairly local to me-the fact that she is running today is fairly significant as it is the first day of the Tramore festival.I wouldn't be surprised if she was heavily punted.Having said that she definitely looks a short runner and she failed to improve on a promising debut effort with a shocking effort at Redcar.I will be happy to do most of my business at around4/6 and maybe keep a few quid for an in running lay at ultra short odds.

    Nice Luke. I don't really do betfair, so was considering backing Taghreeb against it, then work kicked off and I didn't have time...

    I put the three in the market behind it in combi f/cs for an interest. Will do nicely!

    Nice one Del Boy-that should steady the ship.
    It probably says a lot about the psychology of the average Irish owner/punter that they have to go for a balls out punt on an odds on shot in a maiden.I vaguely know one of the local big fish punters and if I get the opportunity this week I am going to try and find out what kind of money was involved-the man in question probably had 5 or 10K.

    good call Luke

    the ground is easy at newmarket..I don't think it will suit Long Cross in the 3.50 race..1.74 is a nice lay price

    Brilliant indeed, EC!. Well done Luke too.

    I'm keen on Drive On tomorrow (4:30 NEW). Shown plenty of ability, needs to translate that to turf. I'm hopeful he can do it.

    William Buick rides in the 3.50 @ Deauville today, then does a dash to Newmarket for just the one ride - Arabian Oasis (6.30).
    Clearly, he fancies his chances.
