As the wonderful Shergar Cup takes centre stage this weekend I have decided to look for a decent priced winner elsewhere. The reasoning being that most of the jockeys involved have little or no experience around Ascot. I seem to recall that another forum member was a fan of Geoff Oldroyd whose...

Best odds 8/1 now.

Coming from Preston I would share your view on PNE getting relegated however if Sheffield Wednesday drop out of the league or have points deducted the price doesn't look as attractive.

And it won't cost you an arm and a leg!!!

I think the Shergar Cup is worth watching for future races of runners ridden by jockeys who are inexperienced around Ascot. In 2022 in the two mile race I was going to back Island Brave but was put off by its rider Jose-Luis Martinez who had no experience at the course. It was given a shocking...

The one and only time I went to Brighton races I had arranged to meet a friend who lived there. He stitched me up good and proper saying we should meet in this 'really friendly' pub in the town centre. I arrived at the pub before him (surprise,surprise) and was looking at the drinks on offer...

My first bet at Goodwood today. Egoli 1:55 for Raif Ralph Proper Tory Beckett @ 6/1 Excuses on it's first start as it got loose before the race. Impressive on it's next two starts and trainer/jockey in good form.

Yes I've opened the beers for Ripon read Redcar

Been out earlier today decided to give Goodwood a wide berth after Trueshan's demise yesterday. Anyway just backed the last three winners at Ripon!!!! Yorkshire 3 Sussex 0

Not so glorious f***ing Goodwood is it!!!

Let me share a tale with you from 40 years ago. In my pre marital years I used to go racing regularly and never missed the York three day meetings. I used to stop over at the Croft Hotel on the corner of the Mount/Scarcroft Road. This particular time I went down for breakfast early (as always)...

After winning on Hierarchy last night at Southwelll Saffie Osborne was interviewed on Sky Sports Racing and the interviewer was shocked to discover that she would be forsaking the glorious competition that is the racing league to ride a single entry for her father at poxy little Goodwood. Shame...

Ran on well would have placed with a clear run.

Can somebody not tell the plank that the best turned out award is exclusively for the horses.

Don't back it on Thursday Slim it runs on Wednesday.

Also I was at York on international day last year and backed this horse. In the winners enclosure after the race Jim Goldie gave the impression that he was not overly enamoured by the ride Paul Mulrennan had given the horse (should have been nearer the pace). In its next race the Ayr Gold Cup...

Jordan Electrics 2:00 York Saturday 25/1 Trainer in good form (treble up Tuesday including one of which was ridden by 7lbs claimer Lauren Young who takes the ride). Stayed on to take second in a similar race on International day last year. Goes well fresh and apprentice claim takes its weight...

What's her surname again? Nepotism at its finest!

The concept is a bit like the hundred in cricket in that no fan of the sport wants it but it is thrust upon us and we are told we will all enjoy it. Decent prize money on offer but I'm afraid I won't be tuning in.

Be careful with Cloud Cover owner/trainer has Royal Dress entered in the same race and he probably won't run them both.
