Not on Channel 4 today but is the rest of the week. Good luck everyone, the last festival of the year unless I'm forgetting something!

Never done that well at the St Leger meeting. Not sure why, but here's hoping it's different this year.

Fill rate seems horrendous today.

Is it just me?

It certainly was for that legends race! I thought maybe there'd been a big delay or something. The others have been ok though I think.

Hopefully tommorrow should be a bit better with the extra TV coverage

Certainly doesn't feel great today. Delay at Uttoxeter now as well.

Don't worry, my favourite money-printing machine 'Blue Bunting' is waiting for us at the end of the week to come with a withering big late run in the St Ledger - smash it again In-Play at big odds?

Did anybody see the delay on that second race at Doncaster. The market was turned in-play about 11 seconds before the race went inplay on ATR!

It was BF turning it inplay early as opposed to an increase in delay on ATR which is already 4 secs delayed.

Only exciting thing so far this week for me at Doncaster is the flasher, bar that can't say it has been much good.

I've never enjoyed this meeting. I don't try and let that come into my thinking but I am seeing nothing special so far this week.

Why not take your entire profit for the week and gamble it all on a straight up back punt of 'Blue Bunting' in the St Ledger? What I often do. Of course I blow my bank all the time, but at least its exciting :P

You're really into him aren't you?

I won't be able to be around in the weekend to follow him up, but I sincerely hope you land another epic gamble!

Have to say I have found this week pretty rubbish. Price movement seems to be very limited at the moment to me, it feels as though they are being held in place the vast majority of the time by a good chunk of money.

I don't have any figures but just looking at the charts many of the markets are just flat lining, all a bit odd tbh.

I guess it means that the horses that go to this Doncaster meet are mainly known quantities (hence markets are not volatile) but there are no particularly strong or weak selections (hence there are no strong trends either).
