Seems a mad thing to say when you're betting left right and centre on the novice races.
With this race I'd say there's 5 horses can win it,

Delta Work
Conflated
Minella Indo
Foxy Jacks
& Galvin

As Pools of horses go, this is a puddle compared to most of the Novice races.

All are a lot lower than I'd bet though so no good for me. Could possibly be another 2/3 others yet to add to that bunch as well. Definitely a no bet race.

Might be no help

Does everything need to be help?

What do you need help with? :highly_amused:
 
Has anyone been to Chepstow for the Welsh National ??

If so, what is the parking like in the town centre ?
Any advice appreciated.

WE are thinking of arriving early enough, around 10-30 and parking in the town rather than the course.

Injured Jockeys Fund president Sir Anthony McCoy and reigning Longines World's Best Jockey Ryan Moore will captain two teams of riders in a special showjumping event on Monday evening at the London International Horse Show.

The Markel Jockeys Jumping class will pit two teams of racing stars against one another in a bid to raise money for the IJF, with McCoy keen to repeat his effort from 12 months ago, when recording one of the fastest times of the night aboard his daughter's pony.

McCoy's team is set to feature former champion jockey on the Flat Jim Crowley, Kielan Woods, Lilly Pinchin and Harry Cobden, though Paul Nicholls' stable number one confesses: "I've never showjumped in my life."

Harry Skelton will be hoping to dust off the aeroplane celebration at the London International Horse Show

Moore can call on a similarly stellar line-up, namely the recently retired Tom Scudamore – now a trustee of the IJF – Joanna Mason, Sam Twiston-Davies and Harry Skelton, a man well and truly bred for the job as the son of Olympic gold medallist Nick Skelton.

An IJF fundraiser for Graham Lee, who suffered a spinal injury following a fall at Newcastle last month, has raised more than ?175,000 and McCoy said: "It’s been a tough few months for us at the Injured Jockeys Fund so nights like this – while being great fun – are more important than ever. We thank everyone for supporting us and hope we put on a good show."

The Markel Jockeys Jumping, scheduled for 6.05-6.35pm, can be watched on the BBC red button (Sky channel 981)

I've been watching this weekend the puissance on friday night was awesome. the final competitors were attempting 2.18m

Really miss Dandrew99 and his odds movement thread. Just having a random browse about today and some interesting blue and red in races from different firms.

Roll on the Christmas festivities!
