backing two or more entries in a field in order to esnure the same return if either wins

Haven't placed the bet yet and thinking of throwing Darkness in there. 22-1 with WH.

After drawing some no 100/1 hoper in the office sweep I put a small each way bet on Parsons Legacy at 16/1 with PP. Don't know much about horses really so I tend to stay away from them most of the time. In the flesh and in the bookies.

Boyles are placing top 6- no other bookies has matched that.

Sticking a bit of Golden Flight and Snowy Morning each way- they won't win but I think have a decent shot of getting a place.

Rambling Minister and Darkness are my two tips. Not too sure about My Will anymore- think I'll just go E/W with him.

Can never resist a novelty bet so going lucky 15 on Himalyan Trail, Darkness, Golden Flight and Snowy Morning to finish race.

AS soon as I clicked 'submit reply' I heard ".....and Rambling Minstral has pulled up...." :mad::rolleyes:

Had 3 quid on the fecker as well, more than usually for me, I rarely bet these day, I can't pick winners anymore.

Certainly the winner had some good bit's of form but I would not look that far down the card.

They say it is a good result for the bookies - but it will put a lot of people off racing :)

Some no 100/1 hoper? It wasnt the winner was it? Offshore Account at 20/1 seemed to be doing the business until the last two. Cerium was 599/1 and ended up 5th. I actually booked him each way down William Hill. Top 4. If I'd booked him down Paddy Powers, i'd be jumping a mile high right now!

No. It was Zabene or something like that. Didn't check how he got on. Put a small bet on My Will each way this morning so at least I got something small out of it. You'll learn to support Irish business next time Pauro!. Poor struggling Paddy Power.
