Gamble up! GLGL, Scotty

Think the Russian football is still on, if you want some of that.

The card starts with a high quality A10 that my cat could likely be competitive in, and she died a couple of years back.

Using 365 prices they've opened up 4/1, 11/4, 3/1, 4/1, 4/1, 3/1. Whilst typing they've obviously taken a tenner on T1 as that's now 11/4 fave with T2 pushed out to 3/1. That'll be because it has an excellent draw with 2 and 3 going middle-ish and then three wides.

I had this between the bookends and can see the positives for T1 but will try T6 who is on the downgrade, could possibly do a 3:95 sectional to avoid some troble and has the odd 'RnOn' comment. Currently 3/1 but I'm likely just to be playing on the machine later if the price is right.

Slow away and then ran its race, 2nd I think but was never winning off the last.

What day are the Russians playing? Will punt anything at this stage.

We take the jump up to A3 for the second and I fear Sox (RIP) would have little chance in this one.

RP have NB'd T2 who looks like he's always there or thereabouts. T5 looks guaranteed to lead but is such a short runner even over this 400 - hasn't won since October either. 7/1 so could be a big price on machine later for those wanting to sweat trouble in behind.

Might play the inside three in some combos as 2 and 3 look the strongest runners and T1 looks like it can hold a rails pitch. If pushed, I'd plump for T1 at 5/2.

Finished 2-1-3, I was unlucky not to get the lot.

The first of a ChopChop T1 double here for me. Doris only really runs her race from trap one and this race looks like a great opportunity to make all. May have to take a slight bump from T2 at the first bend but not a great deal of pace on the outside so I think she holds the rails and then something like 24:80 wins it.

Not rushing to the bookies to punt it at 5/2, mostly because they are all shut. Will see what BF is saying later as with a lot of these I am happy to leave them.

All the 365 movement seems to be for Doris, in to 6/4.

No idea, just saw it mentioned

11/10, can confirm that it's definitely not my money!

Goes off odds on, couldn't hold T2 to the bend and that was probably that. Finished 3rd.

ChopChop again. This time Basil.

T6 is the short-ish favourite and has already been bet in from 2/1 to 6/4. That'll be too short for my liking, although looks to have been running in slightly better races than most of these. T5 could hold 6 up early, although 5 does cut the bend. Having watched the race from the 13th of March, I felt 5 was slightly fortunate to clear Basil - fancy T1 to hold his spot better and if taking a length out of these could hold on. 4/1. Lemon Dexter in 6 could be a forecast link as looks the quality.

Opened at 5/1 and was up at 7.8, then I blinked and it's now 2/1.

T5 easily cleared them this time and wasn't for catching. Selection goes off short and jolly 2nd.

T5 Westlake Genie looked the most likely winner on the first half of the card when I looked before prices but opened up 6/4 and already in to 5/4. Has a good length or more on these to the bend and can't see it losing but not for me at that price.

Odds on, although clinging on to about 21/20 on exchange.

Some gamble that was.  I laid the winner at sub 5/2 and it went off 7 on the machine!

Did nothing out the traps and couldn't clear them

Yeah, originally said I wasn't punting T1 at 5/2 so I definitely would have been a layer of T1.
