This is what I have so far. Haven’t narrowed down to singles yet. Bit late for that lol. Included time to show I ain’t posting after.

I’ll be watching Glorious Boru in the 2.25pm I’ll also be keeping an eye on Lovely Schtuff in the 2.35pm.

Not backing anything mate. With gamstop at the minute, set myself a goal of being debt free by the end of year but keeping my eye in because a) good to keep watching and b) I love watching it whether I’m backing or not.

Some day soon looks a good thing in the 2.00pm at Kelso. Short odds I know but fancy it. Idled a bit last time out but won well. Has form on going and distance.

Sometimes it was over evens depending on the bet etc but the profit was withdrawn and the starting tenner was left.

Yes sir. I probably had to deposit, at a rough guess, maybe 25 times. It was a family holiday, our first, so had to be stringent and stick to it. I’d pick over 1.5 goals and a place bet. Things like that but the important thing was I stuck to it. I think I had a run of about 5 weeks without depositing. I’m gonna do it again when we decide where to go on our next one. However, I am with gamstop for a bit though so no rush.

I think if Charbel hadn’t had fallen 2 out in the Arkle in 2017, I think he would taken Altior close as he was absolutely cruising. Altior was in his flat spot and who knows how Nico would have reacted.

I think you’re on the money. Townend said he’d never felt anything like it before when he was ambling along, he just got in a little close and couldn’t get the landing gear down. I hand on heart believe he would have put it up to Altior, even in Altiors prime. His cruising speed, his jumping and his class are just awesome. The Queen Mother still breaks my heart every time I see it.

An example would be this. I looked at one race, few criteria entered and look what came out top pick.

One of the worst thing I hear is people who have these football rollers, say £10-£1000. They get to £500 and lump in the next saying “if it loses I’ve only lost £10 because that’s what I started with...”. No, that’s not it. You’ve lost £500 because that amount is withdrawable. What is enough for a gambler? Never enough is the right answer. Last year i did did an evens a day bet. Started with a tenner. If it won, leave the tenner and withdraw the rest. Paid £3200 for a holiday for my wife and kid. Took some real will power. Control and will power is the key. I think you either have it or you don’t.

I’m a big advocate of the patternform website. I think it’s an outstanding tool when used properly and can predict the results superbly. I’ve been using it for the AW with reasonable success but mainly on the place betting. Courses with form that doesn’t really travel are quite good like Southwell and Dundalk.

Wish I’d been here for the last two Cheltenhams lol

I will join next Saturday. Looks like fun.

Is this done for fun daily? I’d like to jump in at some point.

I think Mabs odds were reflective of his last win. People kinda jumped on board. Class will always win out though.

Well done Crunchy on the Duke of Firenze.

Congrats. I signed up for gamstop a couple of weeks ago.

It’s like those people that try and sell you a guaranteed result. They probably sell 10 different results hoping to snare some people soul in.

Irish racing be around for a while. How else would we have Al Boum Photo incidents.

I bet Willy is gutted about that, honest he is.
