You must be off your mind.

I've got them, now.

 

2.40 Sandown

 

2pts e/w on:

 

Jack Junior: 20/1

Dubai's Touch: 33/1

 

Dubai was 4th

Jack was nowhere.

 

Some bookies ( Totesport and Coral ) will pay out on the 4th place: the rest won't.

Betfair have paid out too (5/1 for the place! :yahoo: )

I have a good feeling today.................

I've already backed Penny's Gift: looks to have the best chance after its last run at Ascot.

I also like the look of Caranbola: bottom weight, decent form: nice E/W shout.

Penny's Gift looks a bit short though for a race that is an absolute lottery.

 

Doughnut and Finegan McCool for me E/W.

I've just put a couple of quid on Finnegan to be placed at 14.0! Too high not to!

I backed Pennys Gift, got jammed in, didnt get a run at all but when the gaps came she ran on well, but to late ill back it again though

Jammed in?

Pilot error IMO.

3.50 Goodwood

 

2 Pts EW Bentong (28/1)

 

2 Pts EW Off The Record (20/1)

Bentong is drawn well at 24, in what is a lottery!

Knot In Wood for me: same mark as when third last year (with jockey's 3lb claim) and seems in good form. That's about as scientific as I can get in this race before the pin takes over.

 

I'm not sure why Value Scope has chosen this race as backing the winner is pretty much down to chance!

I agree with Knot In Wood, either that or Prime Defender.

 

Value Scope often picks these farcical races. I suppose it gives an excusewhen he gets it wrong and makes him look great if he gets it right!

sadly, that doesn't seem to happen too often these days

Traf may know the answer to this,why if Bentong "refused to race",was money not returned ?

 

I didnt see the race so dont know if it was in the stalls.

He went into the stalls and therefore was "under starter's orders".

They opened the gates and he refused to race.

So, for betting purposes he ran.

So a similar incident to Laa Rayb (which won its next race and also last week at 20-1).

Indeed, but I don't think Bentong's in the same class as Laa Rayb.

 

If you're interested, Bentong's due out in the 1.10 at Ascot on Saturday.
