I remember at the one we ran last year in UCD, after I had sheetfuls of bets I was meant to do, horses that had been bigged up no end. I ended up losing the sheet ( classic ) but it was just as well because if I'd stuck to the tips from that night I would have been stuck a lot of money after the festival.airport, lol

Just annoys me sometimes when a trainer will mention every horse he has running bar the one he actually fancied the most. Mullins in fairness to him isn't the worst but Ted Walsh can be a right cunt for it. He will fancy every horse in the race bar his, who will hose up.
anyway, don't want to derail the thread. Great racing so far. Worried about the weather though.
Hope Hurricane does the business

The Cross Country Race was now been rescheduled for Thursday at 5.15. All bets on this race will stand as per the rule below:
If a race programme is abandoned or postponed bets will be void.
However, on occasions when a major race is postponed we reserve the right to advertise and apply the following: Bets accepted after 10am on the day of the overnight declarations will stand until that race is run, so long as the overnight declarations stand, unless cancelled by prior mutual agreement.

Breezing through the Racing Post this morning, I spotted a 2 page add from PP advertising 5/1 on Hurricane Fly for new phone customers (to a max of €50). I never had a phone betting account as I didnt really want it as i thought it would just be too easy to be sucked in having bets on everything and anything. (at least before I place bets online Im prepared to do some bit of study first).
So I ring up and tell the girl Id like to open a telephone betting account. She asked me had I used a telephone betting account with them before, "no", says I, "never bet over the phone before". Have you an online account with us, asks she. "Well, yes I have" says I. Ah, says she, thats the same thing, its the same account, so you can not place the bet.
I explain that is not what the advertisment in the paper says. It specifically says open a new phone betting account. I asked her why they didnt say phone/online if thats what they meant, but she just kept repeating that the account is the same.
So now all of a sudden, my wife, my 2 daughters and my future son-in-law are all the proud owners of spanking new PP telephone betting accounts. I must ring that girl back in the morning and thank her for her help!!
Roll on day 2.

Did it twice and it's since been clipped to 2/1. I knew it wouldn't last as boyles is up to and info 5L and 7/4. I think something will chase her up to within 6 today and I can see her more likely to be beat than to piss in so you may as well get 2/1 than 8/13.
I'm in kildare today hitting the Pub soon with these crazy bastards.

I'd suggest if this is your first text bet with PP you will get a better offer for a greater amount but it works for existing accounts who have already text bet before.
Paddy Power are running an offer of Evens about Sprinter Sacre tomorrow if you text the bet in for max €20. You do it the following way:
Text the following to 51465 - XX ENHANCED SS
-> Put your stake (up to €20) in the XX part; thus if you want €20 on it; it'd be "20 ENHANCED SS". You must have the funds to cover it in your account.

Sorry deleted post as I seen you said three on Somersby at the end of the last post. I hate aftertiming but I also backed His Excellency at 80's for three places before the declarations. Couldn't quite believe it when he was running on at the end as he look dead half way through the race.
