Yes, having considered it you're absolutely right, Lee.
135 is too low to be sure of a run; certaintly not what I'd want backing him anti-post for The County. I need some certainty!

Nube nebra in the same boat.
Court Royale looks interesting in this race (4.15 Taunton). The return to good ground will surely see a much better effort from him than the last twice and he looked progressive when winning over C&D in November. The PFN horse he gave weight and a beating to that time has won since and is now rated 132. Court Royale races off 121 today with Sean Bowen up and 12/1 will do for me
Outsider (19th February 2019)
3.45 Taunton, Orchardstown Cross. I got a bit of info that the money is not down to win today. I'd had a fairly big lay on it. Around 3.15 currently.
A bit of a redner from earlier. I'm on a recovery mission to claw back a few quid that went south.
7.00 Wolves Dont Do It, laying this for the win and also the place. Around 3.75 on the win, and around 1.69 on the place. I'll be happy if it gets beat, but if it's unplaced too I'll claw back most of today's loss.
I thought the horse exceeded itself over 1m2f, over 1m1f today. I can't see it getting home tonight in front as I thought it needed/needs further.
Ludlow 3:00 Oxwich Bay. I fancy this one back over hurdles. He has enough form in the book for him to have a live chance, especially his placing at Cheltenham towards the end of 2017 off a very similar mark. I don't think this event will be as hard to win. I reckon he will go close with a decent round of jumping, although I am not taking those early show prices as I think they're too short. At 10/1 or bigger I will be involved.

I wasn't going to have a bet in the last 8.30 Wolves, the reason being Nabeyla reached odds of 2.32. I wanted higher. It's now around 2.72 and I think at that price it's worth a decent bet. I've heard bits and pieces about this horse and it's supposed to be fairly smart. Backing now around 2.7'ish
Nicely done!
Breathless Times beat better horses than these 2 ago, then disappointed lto owing to an irrregular heartbeat, and had a 2 month break afterwards. Roger Charlton seems to have sorted him since, as he travels him to Newcastle, where he holds a 55% strike rate.
7/1 generally.
First bet of the day. 3.25 Doncaster, Court liability. Laying this for a place, around 2.1 at the minute. Today is a much tougher race than of late and I'll be very very surprised if it can win.
6.00 Wolves, Geordielad, around 3.3 at the minute. I had a fairly nice win bet on this!
Last bet of the night for me.
7.45 Chelmsford. Zorawar. Around 2.64 at the minute. This is a max lay for me. If it wins I'll feel the pain for a few days. The horse had a couple of good wins but I feel it's at the end of it's teather. Max lay for me.
Killie did pretty much everything I'd expected from them and although conceding a 90th minute winner I reckon they justified the bet over the piece. They made Celtic work very hard.
They have another tough task tonight at Ibrox in the Cup replay, already made tougher by being denied a good penalty shout and conceding an early goal but I've taken 22/1 that they can turn it around. I still have faith in Steve Clarke's ability to rally his troops but the SFA fix was in before the game started with the appointment of Ibrox-facing officials. The governing body are desperate for whichever side plays out of Ibrox to be the dominant force in Scotland and it is a measure of how bad the club actually is that they still can't get close to Celtic in the league.
I've probably thrown my money away but I can't see Killie lying down and rolling over just because they've lost an early goal.
Illegitimi non carborundum
Direct quote from the BBC site:
Kilmarnock manager Steve Clarke looks pensive on the touchline. I wonder what his reaction will be to some of the decisions in this match?
Illegitimi non carborundum
I'm not sure on the fav stats but what I've noticed about O'Meara is when he fancies one, he seems to head to wolves or preferably lingfield. That horse tonight was running off a pretty higher mark than just about 2 weeks ago and also upped from c6's of late to c5 tonight. If he puts it out again within 7 to 10 days in a class 6 at lingfield or wolves I'll keep a close eye on it, if not I'd say it'll be sometime before it wins again.
No great pace in the 6.10 @ Wolves and a plum draw, which should allow Doctor Sardonicus to emulate his 2 recent, comfortable c/d wins.
7/2 best.
edit @ 1.45 Price is now shot to bits, so it might be worth a small f/c with Orvar (currently 13.93 with b365)

Thurles 3.05
Go Another One may be worth backing at 8/1 here. He disappointed in November but that was quite soon after a tough race at Cheltenham previously. He’s been given a break since and I’m happy to take the price offered in the hope he can resume progress

Hopefully a good start to the day.
2.25 Southwell. Greyzee, laying this for the win and also laying for 2 places. Around 4.0 for the win and 2.56 for 2 places. I'd like the price a bit lower for the win, but I thought it's last run exceeded it's ability. I'll be surprises if it wins today and hopefully loses out on 2nd place too.
