    What did you make of the ride given to Slatey Hen at Kempton 2 starts back by Robert Spencer. Not suggesting it was bent, but it was mind-bogglingly inept, yet got no press mention at all.

    RLB equates to Robert Losing Butler IMO.

    I do think most of the Butler horses moving to Guest and their linked jock's is a bit suspect.

    Brown Pete was given a typical stable ride today; Slowly away, rushed up around the outside, faded. Decent horse can't cope with that race style never mind moderate ones. He's probably had to run an 11 second 1f sector to get that position which is suicide.

    Press just seem to sit on the fence regarding bad rides and the stewards seem content counting the number of smacks a horse gets.

    He's never going to make a Mckeown or lynch if he's that obvious!!! either the worst jock of all time or was deliberate,looked deliberate but i'd like to see him ride again.Shouldv'e won the race,in saying that i wouldn't necessarily be backing the horse as they went no pace but thats irrelevant.In reply to rory.

    Iv'e unknowingly put myself on the line as RLB is riding Dancing Freddy for Guest/rackbackmypoker tomorrow and I've backed Luscivious

    Sods law he will beat mine, but I couldn't think of a better jock to have on one you want to lose.

    Would be hard to back anything other than those two,looking at the times on the 6th of december luscivious has 4ls to find although was drawn furthest away and eased a furlong out.Very likely to lead though and is huge advantage there could be a 1,2.

    An absolute mad price by hills and 365 went 8s now into 11/2 hardly surrising as when it won at chester clocked up standard times quicker than that of older horses bertoliver 77 and foxy music 84 yet that was over 1/2 furlong further than their races.This could be fav by tomorrow.

    Always put a write up after the horse so price doesn't get missed.

    Thanks. I'm easily confused. Your part about Bet365 going a mental price of 8/1 threw me.

    Forgot to mention a very strange ride by RLB two races back to back not going after the horse at all contented to stay in same position with no assistance whatsover.I think this will have to be backed on its next couple of runs,it may just be the jock is so bad which i know he is but there is no effort whatsoever.Up to those two races dancing freddy had some nice swell form as well so will be overpriced relative to probably being inform.

    Carrickboy 12:50 Haydock - this horse strikes me as just the sort to go off shorter than the 5/1 betfair available. The owner gets his trainers to target this meeting and this horse will like the going and goes well fresh. The 9/4 32Red seems a more realistic s.p. Definitely a horse I would like to trade before the off as he tends to clout the odd fence.

    When i put 1pt basically i'm just trying to get on as much as possible,like todays race was backable at 8s and 9s when i put it on here i also got 10s.
    Most of the races i pick will have a side ew bet i think most of the horses i put on here will trade 30% lower average so i usually put a 10% ew bet or 20% all depending on how much i like them.They aren't necessarily my stakes but they are stakes i know if someone wants to follow they will be winning consistently,i'd expect 90% of them to be winning bets even if only small just on the trade.Sometimes i don't even particularly fancy a pick,but i'm almost sure they will be overbet for specific reasons so will still put a trade up.

    I'm enjoying the thread. It just shows how little work compilers do with the formbook.
