    If Geraghty was riding today Jezki would be my one big bet of the meeting.

    Maybe he followed instructions but AP hasn't ridden him to the best of his abilities this season. Small bet to keep the faith (aftertime alert) just as I did on his brother yesterday.

    How about a bottle of bubbly on the result whenever we meet up? Especially if that were to be in Lidl's.
    Deal.....to be settled Tuesday March 10th 2015, at 12:30pm in the Mandarin Bar - assuming it hasn't been bulldozed!

    NABATEAN 3.50 Chepstow 10/1

    Balding has a near 22% strike rate here, However, when teaming up with David Probert, that record is enhanced to 37% (15/41) only ride for the two together today, Gelded over the winter too.

    Another Anadin e/w punt

    Good place, tried getting on paddy power mobile price kept changing and wouldn't let me on in time, was 9/2 by the time it would finally let me on, not worth the ew.

    Indeed, not your fault mate, I could have got 7's still, just everytime I went to place bet it brought up that daft price alert up instead of just letting me place it at the revised price (6's) and by the time it sorted itself out it was 9/2 haha.

    PP are gangsters.... They're too shrewd!

    No coincidence it took time to 'sort itself out' to the 'revised' lowest possible price!!!

    Gangsters!

    Red Lady for Brian Meehan and Jimmy Fortune must go well with a handy five pound drop in the weights off 83 today in 4:25 Newmarket.

    Ran a stinker first time up last season (9/9) in a maiden before winning her following maiden at 25/1 by four lengths in May 2013.
    Disappointed somewhat since that win, but very interesting Meehan is bringing her out early and stepping Red Lady up in grade from last class 3 outing, who all known form probably doesn't warrant that yet. 20/1 is worth speculating me thinks.

    Unlucky Fonz! I had the race I speculated in between Nova Champ, (first time cheekpieces), and Red Lady. Needless to say, I went for the wrong one.

    A very poor spell I'm having now, I'd settle for four seconds pal, but I can sympathise with you anyway

    Nothing appeals in the 1000.

    I want to be against Integral in the Dahlia. Her Sun Chariot second may have been overrated and around evens first time out is poor. Fabre's filly is bred to stay further than a mile and she'll do for me.

    Good honest to God racing in Ireland today. Calling You in Sligo 15/2 ew is my bet of the day. Would fancy it more strongly if Keane was in Sligo instead of Fran

    Decided to save on Miss France.

    She must be highly regarded if she is, as C4 reported, Fabre's first runner in the race.

    Deeply disappointed with ride Cafe Society got in the first. Mount Athos stuff.
