EW Lucky 31

 

Morning troops. Hope everyone well. Cor blimey though liven up a bit reading through this thread has sent me to sleep 7 times!

Nothing for me today. Why we need 6 Flat fixtures (and that's not even counting the one at The Currgah) is one of life's great mysteries in my opinion. Total and utter overkill.

Good luck if you do wager though.

 

20:25 Chester - Kingscroft

(Took 4/1 BOG on this one. Bit of an unlucky sort but has a chance in this heat. Expected rain would be a plus, as breeding on both sides suggest a bit of cut in the ground would help. Fair speed figures and a good draw, so there'll be no excuses! ).

GL today everyone!

 

Speed Dream 7/1 Curragh 6.30

Well done cracker ew winner is better than a loser mate

 

Good EW well done

 

Franny Norton e/w lucky 63 tonight, has some good chances.

 

Pilgrims - i'm busy on Saturday and there's nothing in those boring flat cards for me to get excited about so i'll not be on. However, on Sunday Uttoxeter hosts one of it's better cards of the year and there's two i'll be packing. Punting pants will be on and i'll be wearing my double barrelled braces because i expect to have some heavy pockets post racing.

3.45 Pineau De Re each way
4.20 Emerald Glade win

Best of luck tonight and tomorrow.

TENOR wins in slightly workmanlike fashion. Well backed so glad I had 11-4 last night, hope a few of you were on!
LONDON BRIDGE a non runner sadly so it's all down to SPELLBIND now and it seems the consensus on here is that he is up against it! Fingers crossed!

 

well done stick, took an age to grind it out.

 

Very disappointing George. You would love to see her Mum passing on her genes in good fashion but that was decidedly moderate!

 

got to lay this fav at the curragh

 

Yep so far she hasn't done a lot. Can't write this one off yet but there wasn't much promise in terms of the penny dropping late on or anything like that. Plus ATR said she looked fit as a fiddle.

Me personally I'd like see Ouija Board good to a speedier stallion. She's been to Galileo twice and Monsun which I think is a little bit too much stamina and not enough speed. Her Kingmambo son was a fair enough performer but I'd like to see her go to a very sharp stallion personally.

 

Something like OASIS DREAM?
