as its the only race i have a gamble on has anyone got any tips on which horse to back and who not to? as the form guide seems to go out of the window for this race.
each way bets preferable.

HOW ABOUT GUESS HOW MANY HORSES DIE

ITS A CRUEL CRAP RACE

 

5

 

Heard from someone who is doing police duty there, that Amberley House is being talked about as a good EW bet

 

Wakeboarder,

I agree.

 

One with four legs would be good

 

Monties Pass.........

Now keep this to yourself but i heard(insider at the GN)that 'blowing in the wind' is the horse that WILL win,so....

 

****

If you have ever ridden a horse you would know you cant make them do what you want they have to be happy doing it, why do you think they jump..............FOOL

 

whips and spiked spurs may help

double fool

 

the beast suggests if you were a horse you would enjoy jumping over fences that there is a good chance of falling at and ending up with a bullit in the head.

most people who enjoy racing cant stand the gn as it makes a mockery out of their sport

the gn is shame for the once a year armchair gamblers im not against racing and certainly not a veggy tree hugger type
but this race is really out dated
probably like the beast himself.

 

Iris Bleu or Bunny Boiler Place bets

 

hi there im going with bunny boiler...lol
even with a whip you cant make a horse do something it don't want to or spurs...I know this from experience!! or maybe I just get really stubborn horses!!
the race isnt as barbaric as it used to be

Well, I've got Youllneverwalkalone ante post at 20's and Blowing Wind EW at 66/1 so of course they're gonna do well.

I like the idea of the group betting too. (Where a group of normally 5 horses need to complete the course - anything from 18's to 66/1). Worth a small punt IMHO.

Fingers crossed I'm as lucky as I was during the Cheltenham Festival.

 

okay i've put a 5iver each on bunny boiler and blowing in the wind on the strength of this thread. Both @ 50/1, If I win I will buy me scoob something nice.

 

Shotgun ***** or Ad Hoc - quality horses

 

Why is it that they always shoot the horses with broken legs?

Is it the cost of fixing a broken horse that will never earn money again, or are they just unfixable?

 

A broken leg in a horse is very difficult to fix, and yes, also expensive. The horse cannot put any weight on it and so has to be suspended by slings in its stable for a long time.

 

Well, I won £9 from my £40 stake, a record win for me

 

Who was in front at the first corner?

 

Well, I was worth listening to!

Not a penny made Oh well, shoulda expected it after my 300-1 treble at Cheltenham!!

 

I told you

 

Bugger i put 2 grand on 'blowing in the wind' after reading triple top insider info[img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

 

Ban It

 

 

Amberley House !

A third rate race horse, but a first rate second course(with chips)

 

well i went for Amberley House £1 ew, stupidly i asked for the odds to be put down and only got 20/1 so i think i`ll only get £7 think the finishing odds were 30/1

cheers mike
