Shergar cup day

[Outsider]

I backed Rosario in the stewards Cup but it was drawn 1.so i will give it another go at 9/1but ive never heard of the jockey.
zaher 320 took 10s boosted to 12/1 on betfair.Holly isnt on it but Joanne Mason is very capable.
not well drawn but im not sure that will matter as its usually held up.
over at Haydock ive done
Lord Bertie 410 11/2
Hawksbill 520 5/1

At the Curragh ive done
Spycatcher 325 10/1 Karl Burkes Are in great nick.
Greek flower 435 9/1 It's maybe time I gave up on him really
No more Porter 540 11/1. Needs to rediscover his best form.

Pockley 612 Ayr 14 /1 Needs to break betterthan usual
Nelson gay same race 6/1

Not had a very good week so far,let's hope for better tomorrow.

Good luck all.

Backed Lord Bertie also but worried this isn't the day and he might get too far behind at this track.

Very incapable imo. Actually the horse ran like a friggin' drain and dear old Joanne was never going to improve matters.

Quite apart, why has the horse ran such, such a stinker? Terrible.

Now, now, grandad. You’re a role model now - grumpy old git doesn’t cut it.

Cheeky sod !

Quite a laugh watching Maureen Haggas getting tongue tied trying to say that most of the jockeys are crap without actual saying so

Winner of the Silver Whatever, Hugh Bowman

Not saying my horse, Urban Lion, would have won but why would any jockey allow a challenger up the rail when you are in front? That’s what he did and that horse he let up his inside, wins.

Am I crazy or is that a crazy thing to do and an absolute ‘no no’ for a professional jockey?

All in all, after just watching the ‘Shergar’ meeting, I think it’s made up my mind that I’ll not bother next year.

A disastrous week and a few that haven't run as well as they should have
Zaher, riot,sword,and Sondad are a few.
Rosario was a bit unlucky today with the jockey and the hood.beaten less than what he lost at the start.
Hawksbill lost by a nose which was the closest I got to a winner.
