A complete and utter horror show for me.Truly awful I don't think anything I fancied finished in the first 10.The likes of Halation and Donncha weren't helped by the draw but they were far from being the best on their side so no excuses really. The winner fair enough can't argue with that and the only reason I didn't have a saver on him was I felt I'd missed the boat as he was certainly 25's maybe bigger in places at the start of the week and was around 14's yesterday although that said his Betfair sp was over 18s and I'm sure at some point yesterday he could have been picked up at 20's on there.The 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th I don't think I'd have found if Id had another 10 picks. I know Steve H who used to frequent FF put up the third at 50/1 so fair play to him as he was probably a bit unlucky in that he wasn't drawn low. Nafaqa was probably my biggest disappointment of the race as had no excuses whatsoever and I was really surprised/completely shocked he ran so badly but judging by his Betfair Sp a lot of people weren't.

Back to the drawing board

[QUOTE="Danny, post: 2527869, member: 66109"] A complete and utter horror show for me.Truly awful I don't think anything I fancied finished in the first 10.The likes of Halation and Donncha weren't helped by the draw but they were far from being the best on their side so no excuses really. The winner fair enough can't argue with that and the only reason I didn't have a saver on him was I felt I'd missed the boat as he was certainly 25's maybe bigger in places at the start of the week and was around 14's yesterday although that said his Betfair sp was over 18s and I'm sure at some point yesterday he could have been picked up at 20's on there.The 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th I don't think I'd have found if Id had another 10 picks.
