Hills are allowing a fiver at 3/1 from 6/4 on Willie Mullins to train two or more winners today. Considering he's the type of guy who puts five horses in a six horse race it stands a chance.
Aye, the wrong outsiders. Awful day for me today. Still, I'll be alright if..[checks notes]...Emir Sacree romps home in the 5.30.
Well after backing Nicholls horses on day one and two I looked at Stage Star, thought it had a chance and deliberately didn't back it! Got two placed horses so got money back today. As to Shishkin. I thought it would probably win but there were question marks and when on telly the tv pundit in the betting ring was showing us 10000 quid that some bloke had just lumped on it I just laughed. You just do not lump big sums onto horses, especially over jumps (unless of course money is meaningless to you). I wonder what the guy thought when Shishkin was clearly not running great.
I had a decent day with my sneaky e/w bets. Stage Star e/w at 11/1. Envoi Allen e/w at 12/1 and Sire Du Berlais e/w at 80/1.
