    I get your drift, but it was Class 3s he won (not Group 3s)and this is a Class 1.:50:

    That said, ive checked it over, and i agree its a good looking bet to me.....and its 11/1 (skybet)as i write this, and 10/1 with a few others.....but im pretty sure it will go off nearer the price you quoted...at best!

    I will back it myself in the morning.

    Naw it isnae.:smiley-laughing002: I know its a bit pedantic, but just incase someone reading gets the 2 mixed up its best to clarify.:50: That said, the jump from 3 to 1, whether in class or Group races, is equally ambitious.

    All Group races and Listed races are Class 1s, Class 3s are average Handicaps where the horse has a rating of no more than 95 (lbs).

    That said, this horse seems to have a fair chance of doing himself justice at this new level, as it is a 3 yearold and potentially still improving, whereas most of the others above it in the betting are exposed horses, with little or no potential for improvement.

    Did you get tipped it, or find it yourself?

    I've just created a betting tips site. Would any of you be interesting in writing some horse racing tips for me? You seem to know your stuff. If the site starts making money I would start paying you for every write up.

    If i ever fancy anything, i would gladly share it...however, i dont study the form unless ive planned to spend the day watching or going to the racing. I also know that tipping is a thankless task as can be seen by the relatively poor showing from professional Newspaper tipsters. Only 6 pros have any kind of profit for a level £1 stake this season!

    Not at all. You give an opinion, i agreed with it....thats the choices we make gambling.

    Same trainer won it too eh? Sometimes when a horse has been excelling by its own standard, there comes a point when it hits a dead end....nothing can be done about it and it cant be accurately predicted. C'est la vie!

    I will keep an eye out for its next run. I only had £5 ew on it, and a £3 win.

    Wee Oisin Murphy at it again today. Just had a 146/1 double up there.

    Didnt have the double myself (you never do)but backed him in both as singles.

    Wee Murphy at it again tonight. 1035/1 treble!

    I got his 20/1 shot, but missed the other 2.

    Little * Oisin on a 25/1 shot done me into second. I looked at it because he was on it...and dismissed its chances!:54:

    Quite a bad accident on the flat at Kempton just in the last hour. At least a couple of jockeys with potentially bad injuries including the recently crowned champion jockey, Jim Crowley.

    4 horses and jockeys involved, 2 jockeys ok.

    Never good when flat horses fall, the speed they are going at.

    On a lighter note, it is Melbourne Cup tonight. After a couple of jars, (just a couple SD)i will be up watching tonight. Good late night with the NFL too! Not enough hours in the day!

    The build up to this is absolutely excruciating.
