If anybody can do a bet for me on Boyles I'd appreciate it. Only £10 EW on an ante post dog. Can bank transfer the money after poker tonight/ in the morning.

Can do if you message me the bet will send bank details once I've got you on

Thanks very much however someone has got on for me now.

The bet is Farneys Cookie@ 25/1 with 4 places for Coronation Cup. They are the only ones still doing 4 places and I like the price, as low as 14's with pp and 16's with a few. 25's available with others but only 3 places.

Good luck if u play.

Running at 8:34 tmrw @ Romford. Needs to be in first two to qualify. The power of blonde have sent Boyles to 12/1 

Qualified in 2nd, quite happy with the run. Just need him in the first four to get a return.

OioI!

Nice stuff thought did well considering was slowest away

25s looks.nice 😁

Really happy with the final lineup, think Bob could be vulnerable, would be worried about Droopys Marian after that run tonight but think we should get in first 4 and great chance of winning, not a bad sweat on a 25-1 ticket.

Bob looked like he cramped again there to my.novice eye?

Got a great bet anyway mate

Looks like he did, being reported on Twitter, he only has until Tuesday to get ready, best dog in the race but will it be too soon? Bob in t5 Cookie in t4.

Meh, Razor cost me the CC semis treble. He's in the bad books. Nice work with Cookie Omm, can definitely see him finishing close up in the final. Bob came back to Hometown Day so there's obviously a worry there, still the fastest time though.

Cheers mate, Sky have put Soviet Kenny at 12/1, can't see why it's that price tbh.

dont get carried away with tonight's performances from wides.  The track never give the railers a chance all night.  Bob very unimpressive if you take out the bias.  He has struggled to beat a 33/1 poke in his semi by a length. the rag in second is shown below.

It clocked 35.08 tonight which unless the track was 40 or 50 fast is the quickest time it has ever done by a mile.  Obviously it was assisted by the bias.  However, it that has done 35.08 bob should be breaking the track record given how favourable the bias/track was imo.

Fair points, guess we should make an informed decision on Tues nigh after the first few races. On Sky so should be a quick track.

How dare you speak about Hometown Day like that!

The going was officially 30 fast for bob's race.  Day effectively runs a career best calculated time at the age of four.  Kind of tells you how badly bob underperformed.

654 in first at romford this afternoon.  Outside bias could easily be carrying over to this afternoons bags meeting from last night's TV meeting.  Worth keeping an eye on it.

456 in 2nd race as well.

654 3rd race as well.

342 in 4th race where t6 was vacant

The 9:24 Romford race is particularly interesting for me. Aayamzaone has been touted as not only the top bitch at Romford over 400m but also as the possible Golden Sprint winner and is as short at 5/4 for tonight. She was turned over last week by the re-opposing Millwards Katy who randomly threw in a 23:52s time which I think is the 3rd fastest time ever. Going to oppose both - Aayamzaone because, despite the small sample size, hasn't performed from trap 5 before and also she's been slow away too much recently for my liking - and Katy because I'm going to take last week's performance as an outlier although she has performed reasonably recently without that. She posted a 3:62s sectional last week which is wild at Romford these days but her norm is 3:80s-ish which may see her held up T2. I backed Evanta Fantasy last week from T1 and I'm going to do so again - to my eye she's improving and I think we see a sub-3:80s sectional which will see her hold the rails and from the front she sees out the trip well and I think she'll go under 24 seconds soon. Mostly 9/2 but 5/1 in a few places that I don't use on the regular.

Funnily, my NAP for the evening is a greyhound that finished second to Evanta Fantasy last week, Romeo Concorde in the 10:11 race. I opposed last week because of trap 4 but he was impressive from there and I think that gives me cause to back him from the same berth this week. Evanta Fantasy just held Concorde last week round the first but I think he can lead up this time and is capable of producing a race winning time of c.24:20s. Razldazl Banjo is the favourite and it might click for him this week at Romford as it did at Monmore last year but I think it's better to back Fantasy in the hope that he reproduces form than Banjo in the hope that he finds some. I can't see why he's the outsider at 7/1 with Ladbrokes, which is stand-out best price, with 5/1 more of a general price. I thought 4/1 would be a fairer price.

Swift Murt is also a big price fancy/punt.

9:24 - T1 Evanta Fantasy @ 5/1 NB
10:11 - T4 Romeo Concorde @ 7/1 NAP
10:26 - T2 Swift Murt @ 8/1

Would want to see the early races first at rommers tonight before ploughing into any early prices.  Last 4 meetings there have been big biases all 4 meetings.  2 inside and the last 2 meetings big outside.
