We can never rule anything out but it looks very unlikely ;)
Love it if he does, what a crazy run he's on
Have you had a piece of that up at 18s?
No for my way of betting there's no value in this race at all. If I was purely punting Morty looks better than the fave. It's travelled near enough 300 miles for this race, trainers won't do that unless it's got a decent chance.

Drifted pretty well near the off but I was in way too early, had to exit and then didn't make the most of the late drift... shame really, I was looking at a steak dinner from it hitting 3s. What a pleb :lol:

I take my hat off to anyone that can make money like that pre-race, burger or steak, I'd be happy if I could consistently get a 10p bag of Space Raiders out the markets pre-race

Yeah, I'm certainly staying away from the lay side on his rides. Hopefully I can pick up on some confident backing... the confident feeling being on me.
Be interesting to see if pre-race his rides are now being backed in early?
Looks like they have on his 16:25 ride.
Did you back L'operateur? Come in quite nicely

No, I kept clear of it unfortunately. I'm gonna have to start keeping a closer eye on these in form jockeys because clearly there is a few quid in it :D

I need to get myself some sort of spreadsheet knocked up that keeps tally of each jockeys wins over the previous day or perhaps over the past 7 days. Then I can automate a back bet if they start to recieve early support in the market.

That's a nice idea actually. I've lost many an opportunity for a good value dutch later in the day because a jockey has had a couple of wins previously

"A great 8 for David Probert"

And a loss for me on that one. Did you back it earlier on?

No, wish I had, I just couldn't get enough runners under 48% book to take a position including L'operateur. Ffos Las was awful for value so concentrated mainly on Beverley and Sailsbury today
