Well done guys, you don’t get many 25/1 winners to the pound, nor even 25/1 and 12/1 for an ew double. Hats off.

The brother's been on the phone. He was on Tabdeed.
He's not being very complimentary towards Hollie...

I'm not feeling complimemtary to highstreet bookmakers. Hills and Ladbrokes only did 6 places in their shops. Hills were going 8 places online.
The same firm offering different terms for online and their shops is really perverse. Why can't they just align the two.
One bet for me in the race which was Makanah. He's done me proud.

Doncaster 8.10 - Cockalorum 22/1, 5 places, BOG - this one has been mentioned in dispatches by both Outsider and myself this season on this thread. This race is a huge drop in class for it, offering a big pot for the class of race so every reason to be trying and I'm hoping it will give the horse the chance to get his head in front again.

Oooh. This fits in well with my current topical betting system. There was a Lucy Worsley programme about Queen Anne on tv the other night and I’ve been attempting to sing the Steeleye Span song Cam ye oe’re fram France ever since ( they were my favourite folk group for years) and of course the lyrics include ‘hey for cockalorum’. Can’t lose can it ( ?)
Oh no. I missed that one! (What a plonker…)

…think I’m gonna need a better system..
Saturday, Ascot 3.20 -Danehill Kodiac 40/1, 4 places - top on my ratings so, for me, shouldn't be anywhere near that kind of price and I can't see Christophe Lemaire being a negative.

Ascot 1.00 - Pistoletto 33/1 - I dived in at 18/1 last night but will be going in again at this price or close to it if the BOGs kick in tomorrow. He put up seemingly a career best (supported by the clock) in a valuable 10f G3 on the All-Weather at Lingfield back in February and backed it up in a 12f handicap back there two runs later. Since then he’s been beaten over trips varying from 7f to 12f and it’s been on my mind that they’re aiming him at the Cambridgeshire. There’s now the chance that he might not make the cut off his mark so they might want to win this as they’re unlikely to go up too much for it. It isn’t as competitive as the numbers or pot suggest.
Ascot 2.10 - Blue De Vega 25/1, 4 places, BOG - top on my figures so an each-way pop and hope for the best.
I have another longshot in a later race but it's on the drift and I'm hoping for longer still in the morning. I'll put it on here then and I'll back these longshots in each-way multiples. You never know.
