Muss 4.30 looks interesting.
On a par hasnt shown much in his few runs, but looks like been crying out for further, got it today.
Looks like there has been plenty of money for it and they are a shrewd stable, BUT still gotta prove it !
2/1 on a par could turn out to be bet of the year, but overall think these can be opposed.
Quite few of the runners not in any form, and spokesperson gone up in weights a little, (cheekpieces seem to improve)
VITTACHI was beaten nk by spokesperson last time (was vittachis best run for a while) , fergal lynch back on board today and 5 of his 6 wins have been off a higher mark than today, won on this card 2 years ago and if the last run is an indication hes back to form VITTACHI could be a worth a few quid E/W at 8/1.

On A Par goes again in 3.40 at Thirsk today in what would be an excellent e/w race if no further non-runners

Looks like any of the 16 could win it tho !!
Odds of another non runner?

[simonnatur]

Yes, I expect you're right. I did back On A Par and Spokesperson - a horse that looked too big having beaten your fancy Vittachi on it's penultimate start.

[atdc21]

Good luck with them, spokesperson maybe just bit high in weights? and maybe the novelty of cheekpieces worn off a bit?

What you make of the Kempton 3.55?
Few unknows to battle with , first time in handicaps and all, i quite liked Queensbury Oddyssey 15/2 e/w.
His first run in handicap wasnt too bad, the 2nd has won again and he has 1st time blinkers, had a small interset.
Good luck.

Fav won well, couldn't of had either of the place horses.

Naive horse punter here looking for a helping hand!

Having an afternoon in the boozer with my Grandad tomorrow, an avid horse racing fan and I know he's going to want a few punts on the races at York.

Any suggestions?

[atdc21]

The racing at York tomorrow looks VERY difficult !   The handicaps are all million runner races, the 3.05 has only 7 runners, and the juddmonte fav is odds on. that leaves the 2 year old race with not much form to go on. Go careful, if you want a bit of fun interest do a multiple ew bet in the handicaps at some decent prices, dont expect to get too much out of it tho lol . Good luck.

Looks as good a day's races for betting you could hope for.  Bookies going 1/4 first 4 or 5 in 3 races.  1/4 first 3 in another and if the International stays at 8 runners a blind man could have a good bet.

Ah should be easy then doobs  !!   what bookies are going first 5?

Think Shy were up in the first.  Could be a couple more later/tomorrow. 

I didn't say it would be easy, just it is as good as if gets.

[atdc21]

Ah, could be wrong but thought only betfair were, which is obv bit different.
Good luck anyway, adventourous would be one for me, but 5/1 its gotta win to show a profit ew.
Fancy anything particular?

This is good news, as I am effectively a blind man when it comes to horse racing. I'll just punt small ew on a few of the big field races and see if I get lucky. Cheers for the advice guys.

Corals were 15/2 Adventurous, think sporting bet ? are still, that will do for me e/w.
