Title: Another horse
Post by: dickos1 on July 04, 2015, 08:53:22 am
Similar to the one I mentioned the other week, there's a horse called home again running at 2.40 Leicester that supposedly should win. There's an odds on horse running, but home again has been set up for this race.

I heard about it again, couldn't bet it though at the prices, it's just no good.

Keep it up Dickos. You obviously have good inside information.

Don't let the leftie losers put you off. They would only be happy if every tip you gave us won.

However us right wingers live in the real world. We know that certain aspects of racing are beyond our control.

Given a fair crack of the whip your tip would have won today.

We accept the odd loser. We know we will be well in front  backing your tips as we will overall get the fair rub of the green.

You have my full support.

It was a disgrace, how the stewards didn't overturn that I'll never know.
It would have won by about 8 lengths.
They're appealing the decision but that doesn't help

It didn't want to know, to say it would have won 8L is optimistic, in fact it's just wrong. If it was so much better it would have powered up the inside.  The winner was a all over the place but still had plenty up its sleeve.

It would have won the race, no getting away from that.
It got barged into the rails and had to almost stop. Even the neutral observers on the TV stated the horse would have won easily without the interference.
The only reason it didn't get overturned is that the jockey on the other horse did everything she could to avoid the interference.
