Just got on at 7s. Shortened alot and quickly but is back out with a few mins before the off!

Well that was a waste of a tenner!

Paul Hanagan is on fire at Ponty it seems!

I didn't bother, looks like all my betting this week is going to be done using Euros over bar counters. Pilfered my bank account constantly for holiday money these past few weeks, so can't afford to part with the very small amount of money I still have access to over here - unless it was for a tip like Ting Ting.



Can't believe Paco Boy looks set to run in Ascot's Summer Mile on Saturday.
Think I'm going to have to keep a lot of Euros to one side, may even keep enough to skint any publican stupid enough to take the bet.

Sorry lads, I lost a ton literally



Dont know what went wrong yet.

Backed Please Sing at Pontefract....second at 11s

Uruguay to beat Holland tonight @ 6/1 with betfred seems too big to me...

Doesn't matter how big it is, Holland will either win or it'll be a draw!

Agreed.

Last year she beat Main Aim into second, even though he is better over further, third was JJ The Jet Plane, and fourth Paco Boy, who is obviously better over further.

This years renewal looks to have more top quality, specialist sprinters that could challenge but FS is a top sprinter in her own right and the run at Ascot will hopefully have her right for it.

Falmouth Stakes

Am a sucker for outsiders but Lahaleeb 50/1? really?

Small E/W for me the 4 yo is with a new trainer, it cost one million guineas questions maybe about ground they say they don't want it too dry although its won a Grade 1 at Woodbine on firm ground (William Buick rode it that day and gets the ride tomorrow) and also second by a neck in the Irish Guineas last year on heavy so who knows, it needs to be near its best to place but the price is massive.

3rd so minor profit

Should of gone with the other one mate



Good pick though.

Go on Forlan

3 out of 4 for a 14.5/1 treble.
(Did finish last on his final mount).

Small E/W on Lord Brunello 9/1 Uttoxeter 21:20

Note to self dont bet when bored

Agreed. I remember back in the day when i was punting on the NHL! Apart from playing one of the games around the turn of the century I've never taken an interest in it! Fair to say it wasn't my greatest gambling venture

Think when I posted that it was 3/3



Green Manalishi ran another none-race I see.
Has been near the back all season, used to be a half-decent sprinter. Retire the old boy.

Betting when bored, trying to find value in anything, or anything that looks good. Usually ends up very bad. Don't let myself do it anymore after losing money on obscure sports and betting in-play on football and racing.

[u14:00 Newmarket[/u

Bagamoyo - Promising 3yo who ran well in one of my favourite "form" races of 2010 at Newmarket at the start of May, he ran the nice prospect Jack My Boy close on that day with a number of promising horses in behind (subsequent winners - Horseradish, Monsieur Joe and Swilly Ferry amongst others). He was arguably unlucky next time out in a valuable 6f handicap when well beaten by Swilly Ferry, he raced stands side that day before drifting towards the centre of the course and running on without ever looking likely to trouble the judge. He's been left on the same mark (96) for todays race and is reunited with his jockey from the Jack My Boy run in Eddie Ahern for todays race. The form of his Kempton Park novice second as a 2yo has worked out well with Treadwell winning a big handicap since and Bagamoyo has an ideal draw on the far rail racing on fresh ground that's not been used since August 2009.

Advice: 2pts Win, 1pt Place @ 20/1 (William Hill)

Any smart brains want to advise what I should do here?

Only talking small stakes (tenners and twenties); should I be trying to lay a bit off or as it really not worth it for such small stakes?

Sneijder? Klose? as options possibly??...

Presumably the 3rd place game could pay a big part, Forlan could get a couple more maybe or if Uruguay don't turn up Spain/Germany could go bananas perhaps?

Also have Holland in a sweepstake off the side of a can of 'Sure' deodorant... - £25 for losing final & £50 for winner, unless there is a hidden clause that I have overlooked.

I'd personally let it ride mate if it's for small stakes. Your choice though. I'm on Villa (8/1) fairly big and had a saver on Klose (33/1) so these Sneidjer goals are killing me at the moment. I wouldn't mind if they were decent goals!

my hanagan bet still looking good then! 40/1 for championship



now top priced 6/4.. moore still fave

Great shout again mate just found one too good/light nice E/W return though.
