Betfair preview evening tomorrow night.

snowed off!

I was in the VIP room at DTD last night and saw what happened.  Jake and Dan Charlton and a few other manc online nerds were totally pissed and staggering around the place.  Jake told Skalie that he would fancy spinning it all on black but he knew Rob wasn't in the building so it wouldn't happen and could large it without being called out for real.   Skalie knew Rob had just arrived and asked Rob if the bet would stand if he wanted it.  Rob agreed then Jake looked a little sheepish about having to actually do it compared to a few minutes earlier.  Finally the bet was struck.  Think zero was a push so it was neutral ev for both plus they both get huge free publicity from the coup via social media.  Jake for stars and Rob for dtd/party.  Very sensible bit of business in a win/win long term ev spot for both of them.

Why do you sound so bitter if you got to be in the VIP room?

I'm not sure either but have it in the back of my mind that he doesn't keep fillies going beyond three.

Banks Hill, Intercontinental, Timepiece, Passage Of Time and Midday were all G1 winning mares of his kept in training that come to mind. Obviously Enable goes into her own category and he has retired plenty at 3 also.

[Oh and agree Sneaky Pete was good fun.]

Agree with love for The Night Of, really enjoyed that. First episode was gripping and depth of characters was strong. Found the court scenes and ending a little flat. Really wanted a few "Did you order the code red?" style court moments but meh it didn't detract from the overall quality I guess. Oh and agree Sneaky Pete was good fun.

Did they ever explain how the guy was cheating at poker? I was quite disappointed with it overall. Some great acting but the plot wasn't so good. Would have been better off watching The Sting for the 28th time

That fella was a tech billionaire so not sure why he was cheating at poker at all? or even playing poker. He was so slick at poker he could cheat the experts but still said I raise when he put in a bet. Yea loads of holes but still found it fun and the opening credits were funky.

i thought the whole idea was he wasn't cheating at all they just planted the idea he was cheating to bryan cranston so they could run the con on him

looking at Cheltenham top jockey, who is going to be the JP McManus number 1, and is there any value in the market?

I note that Mark Walsh (M P Walsh) is "unquoted"

yet "Mark Walsh has forged a close association with leading owner JP McManus and is regularly to be seen in the famous green and gold hoops. He rode his first Grade 1 winner on the McManus-owned Defy Logic at the Leopardstown Christmas festival in 2013. Injury robbed him of a first jockey's championship in the 2014/15 season but he finished the term on a high with success on Jezki in the Grade 1 Ladbrokes World Series Hurdle at the Irish National Hunt Festival at Punchestown. "

might they stick him up on all the Geraghty stuff?

it only takes a Ruby injury for a lot of this market to look very interesting

i imagine mark walsh will ride most the irish ones and coleman/fehily/johnson get a fair split of the english ones so no real clear cut stand out
