    I remember I bet on Canford Cliffs about a year ago in one of the big race meetings - and it won by at least eight hundred and fifty lenghts.....

    Now its like 10/1 - has it gone rubbish or something??

    It's just no good me watching morning line or trying to pick any of these, I'm clueless :(

    A big £20.26 to play with today to round off the account ahead of the bankroll challenge, betting challenge is to turn that into £200 on sport!

    Spurs - 1/4
    Birmingham - 8/15
    Man City - 10/11
    Milwall - 10/11
    Celtic - 1/4

    £10.16 returns £96!

    Well today ive focused on the races that channel 4 are showing because i know dohhhh doesnt have atr (see aint i nice)

    According to the sun those races are

    Goodwood - 2.15 , 3.25
    Newmarket - 1.55, 2.25, 3.05, 3.40

    Seems a little strange to me thats theres no race between 2.25 and 3.05 on maybe the sun is wrong but heres my picks, had 3 bets in the big race, think the fav will win it just looknig for a couple of places.

    1.55 - Ithinkbest 6/1 - £10
    2.15 - Just Rob 10/1 - £5ew
    2.25 - Jukebox Jury 9/5 - £10
    3.05 - Red Jazz - 100/1 - £2.50ew - Hearts of fire - 40/1 - £2.50ew - Fencing Master - 14/1 - £5ew
    3.25 - Kerrys Requiem - 11/2 - £11/2
    3.40 - Total Gallery - 6/1 £10

    No real strong fancies in theese races hence not going above a tenner a horse, will have a look at the rest of racing soon good luck fellas

    Ok for my other bets ive gone for utoxeter, looks very competative racing there and did find it quite hard to pick the winners.

    1.35 - Mr Chippy - 20/1 - £2.50ew (couldnt pick 1 here so went for this as its as short as 11/1 else where)
    2.05 - Sir harry ormesher - 9/2 - £15
    2.40 - Gunship - 15/2 - £10
    3.15 - Celticello - 16/1 - £2.50ew
    3.50 - Hypnotic Gaze - 22/1 - £2.50ew
    4.25 - Midnight Chase - 15/2 - £5
    5.00 - Arumun - 8/1 - £5
    5.30 - Entertain Me - 10/1 - £5ew

    Not overly confident with any of my slecetions today to be honest , £130 layed out ill be happy enough getting £200 back

    Just been told theres a real hotpot running at Doncaster tonight..The owner says it will win hard held by 5 lengths it is 6.10 Doncaster- Victory Ide Say..He tipped me 1 up yesterday rated it a 9 out of 10 chance and it come 2nd by a nose..He said he rates this one a 10 out of 10 chance..The money certainly is down for this on betfair was 3/1 last night now its around the 6/5 mark..No real juicy odds but this 1 should win..Good luck with your bets today..

    edit - just saw ur post, thats the worst thing about skybet most other bookies give u the best price if sp bigger than the price you take....no idea why it dirfted like that
  • edited February 2011
    I FEEL ROBBED!!!! 9/1 I GOT !!!!!!

    Absolutely gutted when it came up on channel 4 as 20/1

    How can that possibly happen????


    HMMMMM Now the forums playing tricks on me my posts werent posting now they are.

    I dont mind aying it twice, or even 3 times, GUTTED !!!
  • edited February 2011
    just checked and some bookies had it at 12/1 at the off but the majority had it at 20/1 so that what it was
  • edited February 2011
    2/3 SO FAR....Great stuff, 1 in each bet, hope I can build on em. The one that lost.....said the jockey was £2 over weightsw...was this the jockey himself? or they gave the horse extra weight? It was at the front then just seemed to stop! lol

    Still rather see emin the mix then get beat than just stay last all the way, makes it abit more exciting!!! :)
