I am off to Bunbury for the weekend with the scooter club and won't be horse punting. First bet for the weekend already up on the Packers. If I was punting, however, it would be Miss Octopussy in Melbourne (Betfair Park - Sandown)and a good place bet on The Tenby Friar at Ascot in Perth.

L/H White Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) Scudamore is on it tomorrow, been on twice previously, Fell and been unseated. Hope it's different tomorrow Jules Edited November 25, 2011 by bwfcryan86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I'm slightly concerned about The Giant Bolster's jumping ability. He has failed to come home with his jockey on 4 of the last 6 occasions now and I'd have expected him to go back to hurdling for a while.

Traf Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Away from the Gold Cup, our Garrp looks to be a banker in the opener at Towcester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 And I like the look of Chosen Forever in the 7.50 Wolverhampton, where I've had a wee punt at 9/1 E/W (BOG). Latest Odds This one is trained by Geoff Oldroyd, who historically enjoys a 1 in 3 strike rate in November and takes on an old WW-favourite European Dream today.

I'm don't usually bet on the horses I prefer to lose my money on football betting but the ones at work who like a flutter have gone for Planet of Sound. Is it worth me having a small wager on it?

Traf Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 FD, Widely available at 12/1 Latest Odds, Planet of Sound indeed represents a decent value E/W bet. It hardly ran last year and missed Cheltenham due to an infection in a back leg. He has plenty of ability, winning the Haldon and Punchestown Gold Cups, and has won three of his four starts at Newbvury. Needs a bit of cut in the ground, but should get conditions here and becomes of serious interest if lasting home (longest trip he's tackled). The extra furlong or so might be his undoing, but you should get a run for your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traf Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Fair play, but to have got those odds, you must have been sitting on them for quite some time now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie Tate Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I was on Rock On Ruby also, it beat a 2/1 favourite that won two days ago, surely not enough time between races. For the Gold Cup I'm on Aiteen Thirtthree, took 7/1 an hour ago and it's now 5/1. Wide open though, wouldn't surprise me if an outsider wins.
