Into the final stretch now with 2 days left

Another day for the bookies today

I have LBB in the commonwealth cup 8/1 antepost to add another value loser to the collection

Lots of very difficult looking big field races again
 
Think I'd lay some of that off to be honest. Seems very short to me in a competitive race, full of unknowns. :distrust:
wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==


Real small stakes for me today. ​


​​​​​​2:30 Porta Fortuna / Navassa Island RFC

Same here with LBB and still a few multis with him too so I'm not going to hedge as week has been too bad to be true.

Yesterday was looking horrific again but Waipiro saved me and I would have had a decent day if the 50/1 not won the last as I had the second and third!

My bets today:

15.05 - Little Big Bear
15.40 - Nagano / Okita Sushi
17.00 - Breege
18.10 - Rocket Rodney / Clearpoint

I really like Nagano and think he is well handicapped if anywhere close to his form from a couple of seasons ago. I'm expecting him to be fully, trainer says he has been training well so I hope this has been the plan to exploit his mark.

Good luck everyone!

Here to get shot at with these, but, one of my mates was involved in getting Conquistador to Boughey. He was bought specifically for this race. Homework has been v good.

To caveat this, I have absolutely no idea about anything on the level​​​, particularly when it comes to 5f handicaps!
 
I've basically swerved the meeting but I have no idea how anyone makes money at Ascot. I'll admit I'm clueless on the flat but every race feels like a crap shoot
 
6.10. 0.5pts win ROCKET RODNEY at 28-1 with double odds boost.

Second at the meeting last year, a great draw today and ran ok in a pipe opener at York last month.

I normally do very well but this year has been very very difficult. There's been so many unfancied big price winners and upsets. I'll be happy to come out even this year!
