      The mare ran another cracker, two hesitant jumps probably cost her second. A great servant.

        Don't think I have ever backed the winner of the Irish GN.

        She's Got Grit @25s would break that sequence nicely.

          Really scary moment when she collapsed out on the track as Ian was pulling her up. Overheated badly but she seems ok now after loads of water and minding by the vets.

                  Gigginstown benefit there. Nice for Ms. Walsh.

                    Possibly a stupid question, but I don't really back horses so not sure.

                    Backed a horse at 9/4 last night on Bet365. I have the choice of 9/4 or SP, but selected 9/4. He went off at 3/1 and i got paid 3/1.

                    Will you always get the better price on Bet365?

                        What am I missing here, Holywell 11/8, Silviniaco Conti 11/4 in the Aintree Bowl.

                        Confirmed flat track machine and King george winner who started 11/4 for the cheltenham gold cup on a flat track against a horse that won once all year in an egg and spoon race.

                                Rule 4 was 20p. So they deducted 20percent off your winnings.

                                (80(winnings)*.8)+stake=74

                                There was a non runner before the off and after you placed your bet so bookies adjusted for the new market.
                                This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
                                All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.

                                  I also have this horse in a €15 double with another running later so does this mean that i will have (15 x 8) *.8 + stake, so €111 going on the next one?

                                    Yup.

                                    Rule 4's are a bItch. I'd a wedge on Cheers Buddy last week in DD and got 30p.

                                          True, the union isnt pure though. You need to be living in the country and have a day by day relationship. Rather than this ''Moore will ride the main horses'' type deal.

                                            Posting this in the Our Conor thread as i feel there is an opportunity to build a market on how good or otherwise this will be...

                                            WillFredd Theatre presents the world premiere of
                                            JOCKEY

                                            Exploring the physical relationship between the dancer, the jockey and the Irish thoroughbred horse.

                                            Directed by Sophie Motley. Co-created with Emma O’Kane
                                            15 & 16 May - VISUAL, Carlow
                                            20, 21 & 22 May – Samuel Beckett Theatre as part of Dublin Dance Festival
                                            28 May - Mermaid Arts Centre, Bray as part of Dublin Dance Festival
                                            6 June - Riverbank Arts Centre, Newbridge, Kildare

                                            Although she didn’t know it, renowned dancer Emma O’Kane has been preparing for this show most of her life. Emma had never ridden a horse before but the first time she did she realized that all her years of dance training had prepared her well. She became fascinated by the similarities between jockeys and dancers, both honing the same muscles, both so physical, needing the same stamina, the intensity of training, striving to be the best and that same rush adrenaline of performing or riding in a race.

                                            Not only that but the first time she went near a horse the trainer told her she was a natural, that horse racing was in her blood. Although Emma discounted the idea some research unearthed the fact that her grandfather Phillip de Burgh O' Brien who died before she was born, had been a bloodstock agent and racing journalist. From Phillip’s writings to Emma’s own experience of recently learning to ride a racehorse, Jockey explores the physical relationship between the dancer, the jockey and the Irish thoroughbred horse.

                                            This extraordinary piece is the culmination of a year-long collaboration between WillFredd Theatre, Emma O’Kane and the Irish Racing Community.

                                              This is too long. Can you give me the horses name and where it is running , I've got Jordan Spieth money buring a hole in my vrtual pocket.

                                                One from the tracker - Awesome Star 505 Limerick. My notes at the time say the race LTO was very strong and to back it next time out. Don't usually like backing them without a run but will take the chance today. Good luck me

                                                  I think the 11/4 about lucky beggar in the 1555 Newbury tomorrow is a bit generous. He ran well on seasonal debut in a listed race at Doncaster , pulled hard as the pace was too slow over 6f and got badly bumped as he tried to switch wide . His main market rival robot boy ran well in a group race at the curragh last year but has always struggled off this high a mark in hcaps.

                                                      Jesus how inspirational is Robbie Mc's attitude on the latest FF podcast... Think I'd be hating the world for a solid few months in his position.

                                                        Sad to hear Davy Condon has had to retire. Seriously under rated jockey. One ride that stands out for me would have to be the ride to win the Ladbroke in Ascot. There are plenty more examples. Sure he'll be a success in whatever career path he takes up ...

Gleneagles not attracting the support past few days of one whos been working the house down. Good race to have a ew fancy at a big price imo.

They actually watered the ground a good bit overnight so closer to good now apparently, funnily it was something Ger was moaning about on Twitter recently but it may play in his favour today.

                                                                                                                      I'm guessing that the treble is now a double, and 2 of the doubles will be void meaning i'll get them refunded?
