I'll be there at the Leger.

I was also more than happy when the Preston players ran out on Saturday that there was no Sean St Ledger.

Who knows St Ledger might attend the St Leger come Septembers meeting, along with Shields, Sharpe, Hurd etc etc etc

It certainly has. Here a bit scrabbled up is its career poached from Racing Post

If you go direct to that Site and search Doncaster Rover a much more aesthetic list will appear and you will actually be able to watch the races themselves

I thought it was going well but obviously the Owner Manager Licensee or whoever is in charge at Teh Sulatatoin in Donny was NOT READING this Forum

They have strung out a Banner with Leger spelt LEDGER - I thought it was too good to be true

Come on then, wheres the tips for tomorrow?

Post by: CusworthRovers on September 11, 2010, 08:14:02 am

Stick with Godolphin mate. I think you will be in profit at the end of the day.

I think they have about 5 entries today, and all look good. Frankie loves Donny and Leger Day.  

I just cannot see past Rewilding (Godolphin) in the big un and a justified favourite. Dandino is getting a few shouts and Snow Fairy clearly has class and a late supplemented entry for this race. She needs good ground, which looks to be the going, however it's been raining a lot in the last few hours. If it was to stay rainy then ignore this filly, and further enhances Rewildings shouts.


Good luck and as for the above tip, I've been hammered in the last 2 days so take it as you see fit.

Title: Re:ITS Doncasters annual RACING FESTIVAL shortly,
Post by: Donnywolf on September 11, 2010, 08:22:25 am

Godolphin as you say look worth a punt

Could be a Frankie day - in last one though has stable mate against so I will do a combi bet I think - all 5 FD mounts on one and 4 FD + 1 RH

What is best for 5 horses please ?
