    The 2025 Glorious Goodwood Day 5 (Saturday) thread

    Whilst many may say its a PITA having all the threads to scroll through I think the links you post regularly for the upcoming races are a useful tool as they put the races into the forefront of some peoples minds. Its as simple as this, if someone doesnt want to read a thread they can scroll...

    Goodwood/galway week.

    I backed this and it brought me back all my losses from the week. Same jockey is riding Pillar of Hope in the 6:05 Galway and IMHO its definitely got a great chance. He's definitely a jockey to keep an eye on over the next few years.

    The 2025 Glorious Goodwood Day 5 (Saturday) thread

    2 relatively short priced fancies for the Stewards tomorrow, Circe and Elmonjed, one high and one low. I had a nice bet on Elmonjed last Saturday and thought he won well enough so he would be my stronger fancy and currently he's out to 10/1 which is a very attractive price in my eyes. Good luck...

    Filtered One Rating System

    I really cant understand how you could ever make any system pay for itself when you are picking 5 horses in a 9 horse race. If none of your selections win you are putting a dent in your bank, if the shortest price selection wins you will most likely still end up with a loss in the race. I just...

    An Edge

    Impossible to believe that most jockeys arent having some kind of bet if they are fancying a horse, I am sure that they have a good enough network around them to get the bets on. I know I read somewhere that Mike Dillon (Ladbrokes) had a few special accounts for trainers and they could get on...

    The 2025 Longshot Thread

    Nightime Dancer ew @150/1 in the Derby, Pride of Arras is probably the standout horse in the race but most of the others are much of a muchness and I think Jamie Spencer can definitely ride this horse for a place.

    Your first Derby memories

    Slip Anchor was my first, what a horse, what a jockey and what a first leg of my double with Oh So Sharp.

    Two Rating's System

    The biggest flaw I can see in this is that there is the potential of having 4 winners and still run at a loss on the suggested staking plan. For this to run in profit over any period of time is for you to have the winner in each race plus an ew horse placed. I wouldnt have thought it would be...

    Does this make you think racing is straight?

    Watching this morning Mick Fitz was trying to find a legit reason for the UR but it was obvious he was struggling to justify it. I thought the slo mo and head on made it even more obvious that it was not caused by the horse and as Matt Chapman stated several times the jockey knew the horse, he...

    Does this make you think racing is straight?

    Straight to the point and probably 100% correct. Its important the IHRB have the balls to take the appropriate action on this, and IMHO if they were prepared to ban Shark Hanlon for 9 months for a genuine mistake they need to be banning jockey/trainer for at least a year.

    Does this make you think racing is straight?

    I agree 100% that there are a multitude of ways to make sure you dont win the race, but possibly he was expecting the 1/3 fav to perform a lot better and having had nowhere to hide throughout the race maybe his options were very limited?

    Does this make you think racing is straight?

    To my untrained eye it definitely looks more like jockey leaving horse than horse unseating rider. I will see what conclusion the IHRB come to, it will be interesting to see their interpretation of the event.

    Does this make you think racing is straight?

    Picked up from the SL this morning, below is the link to a race at Wexford yesterday. Everyone knows that the Charles Byrnes stable is a gambling stable and it will be interesting how the IHRB deal with this bearing in mind some of the decisions they have made over the last year when horses...
