    Headline Makers

    I've been down the form mines for over 24 hours and in desperate need of light relief.

    So I'm asking forumites to write an attention-grabbing headline for their most confident bet of the day in the style of Danny Hall of the old Racehorse publication, eg Allied Carpets Can Add to his Pile, etc

    I'll start.

    (And now that I've done that I realise I don't feel that strongly about anything I've backed today )

    Pearl Royale: Royale can be a Pearl at Musselburgh


    (Now even I know that's shite but if I were to pick my strongest bet of the day she'd be it. I fancy others more strongly but haven't backed them on grounds of punting value.)

    This thread was built to late for my Mr chow line.

    Master of irony was my main bet today and I dare say he'll ironically go and nut Irish roe on the jamstick in the Betfair Hurdle.

    That given I'll go with the boring

    Melon rolls on to Cheltenham.

    Or Mooch too much for Footpad.

    "It'll be a Bleu day for the bookies when Berry leads them a merry dance"

    I'm imagining this as more of a Tom Segal style pricewise headline!

    Great idea for a thread by the way
