Must have a huge chance, have to feel sorry a bit for the bumped jockey though

Good racing today and we will find out if the erratic 3 yr old form continues or if Anthony rises to the top?
I did take an ante post on him for the ARC so hopefully he impresses today .

Well it was one fantastic run. Sovereign took off like a scalded cat set a suicidal pace and just kept going. Absolutely thrashed them. Wonder what will happen next time they all are meet. Hope the jock gets to keep the ride. Only his 10th ride of the season and his first win. Rode wings of desire to win at 40 to 1

3 yr old form still very erratic had a nice double Invincible Army onto Anthony.......
This might have just been a freak result? Jocks have to take some blame.

I don't think the person selecting the venues to bet on knows the difference between a maiden plate and a handicap let alone the Irish derby and any other UK meeting :silly:

I once had the misfortune of phoning in to query a result in the declared soccer 6 dividend. And had to be put through to the supervisor by the guy I spoke to. And the lady I spoke to would've probably put our SARS IT lady to shame. :kiss:
