Agree with Tanlic on Snow Falcon. I think he is talking good sense on this. Good luck!

Between Whataknight and Taj Badalandabad we've tipped up the two rank outsiders, Maurice! Fancy a match bet?

Both ran blinders! Good to see the Pipes get a place, too.
Lovely jubbly!!
Each way money landed! I got 50s too, which was his true price, (until after the race), where the bookies clip him to 40's just because he gets placed. Penny pinching Jokers.
They did the same with Shattered Love's price after he won. I think its criminal myself.

Well done, Marble. Good shout.
Whataknight didn't run badly either, just asked to come from too far back (which I wasn't expecting to see).
Speaking to my brother on the phone this morning I mentioned Prime Venture. I said my worry about him was being ridden out the back and wide. What happens? he gets ridden out the back and wide.
Evan Williams is a one-dimensional tactical dwarf.

Very First Time in the last race, (Kim Muir). This is quite simply, a mental price on 33/1 for each way purposes. He's a young, unexposed chaser who I reckon can run a huge race, against the older and exposed types which there are loads of. A bit of market support would increase my confidence, (I've no idea why he's the price he is)..

I keep a list of horses that did well at last years festival and forgot to back Missed Approach. A suitable name, I suppose but very annoying [I seem to miss one handicap winner each year by not being thorough enough].
Hoping my final darts will throw up a 170 finish for the meeting.
County: Mohaayed 33/1 and All Set To Go 125/1
Albert Bartlett: Ballyward 22/1
Martin Pipe: Dream Berry 28/1 and Discorama 40/1
Grand Annual: Eastlake 40/1

Well done, DO!!!!
Ah! but a man's reach should exceed his grasp......
Well done DO.
Just trying to find who put this up
Think it was Danny so although i did whisky sour at 25s i had £3 win on mohayyeed after reading Danny thanks mate
Discorama should have won that. Ridiculously over-confident out-the-back ride.
My bets in the race:
½ pt win Blow By Blow 14/1 (1st); ½ pt win Early Doors 10/1 (2nd); ½ pt win Mr Big Shot 16/1; ¼ pt ew Dream Berry 28/1*; ¼ pt ew Discorama 40/1 (3rd)
Did I back the forecasts? The tricasts/trifectas?
Did I fvck.
* Turns out the stewards enquired into his running....

One today:
Midlands Nash: Billy Bronco 25/1
He’s entirely unexposed as a chaser, let alone at a trip like this and if his inexperience doesn’t hold him back he has the potential to prove very well handicapped.

I have to admit, as they turned for home I was thinking how far? Oh well. I had a wee flutter of excitement for a minute or two.

Sure that feeling of excitement is what it's all about! I'm going to go with me heart tomorrow and back firebird flyer to come back to form in the 17.00 at ffoslas. 25-1
