I have got Higgins and Murphy to both progress to the final.

Having gone to the Crucible today and seen the first session of the first semi, Allen really does have to improve, or Higgins will blitz into the final.

higgins/robertson here

Crazy half time betting one bookie had Fev 6/1 (just cut to 11/2) another has them 7/4

Fax range from 2/5 to 1/10

Had Murphy to win the first session at 13/8. 2-1 up, but Robertson only needing one more red, murphy was 8/1 to win the frame. Put a couple of quid on, and now well as I speak, it's 62-31 to Murphy.

Surely I can't get any more luckier in this tournament

ahhh well






FWIW, This could be a cracker of a semi....Roberstson just does not look like he's going to miss a ball.

Spoke too soon looks like it will be a Tiger v Lefty shoot out.....what a tournament this could turn out to be if they spend the weekend paired together

Fancy Hatton to beat Pacquiao tonight

No chance ........... he might beat him early hours of Sunday morning though

Sorry fella, in my haste I didn't realise it wasn't Tindall. Wouldn't have bothered!!!! Especially seeing as they are all now just playing for place money with Tiger -7. Luckily I managed to get a bit of 5/2 when he was -1.

Martin, am I wading into Quevega today or not?

The big question! Looks like plenty are already. Been cut as far as i can see.

Unless I'm advised otherwise I think I'll leave it alone. Plenty of other horses with good C and D and I would say this is a step up from the race it won at Cheltenham. Not quite a big enough price to have me interested but I'll see what happens throughout the day and would appreciate some CP advice if he's available

Certainly looks like a good race. Between Quevega and Solwhit for me, but enough doubt currently for me to probably do the same and leave it alone.

Yes!!!!!!!!
9/4 with Skybet.

16/1 for the Champion Hurdle - get on for that too

Really wish you hadn't said that.

I'll have a small bet I think. Small enough not to be bothered if it loses and big enough so it make it worth my while.

punjabi should win being the older and much stronger horse (and also been a bloke

) but mullins' horses are absolutely fling at the moment (4 winners yesterday), punjabi seemed to have a much harder race at cheltenham and seemed to remember CP going on about quevega running the quicker time

so 9/4 definitely backable. main thing my mate rubys on board as well

What?

-4 Gateshead v Donny was a gift off SkyBet even though it's now changed to -6 I still think it's there to be taken as Gateshead have shown far more so far this season than Doncaster and should win with ease.

It was the quicker final 3 flights and a few other things - the race wouldn't have been run to suit, she was the only horse in the first 6 or 7 to come from off the pace.

9/4 all gone

Don't think it will effect your chance of a return but would love to see Hardy Eustace put in a good show as we won't see him on the race course for very much longer and what a great horse he has been.

aye the roof would come off the stand and then meeting would have to be abandoned due to the flood of tears on the racecourse if hardy eustace won. hopefully retirement beckons b4 its too late

Tend to agree with you and Brave Inca similar they owe no one anything and deserve to enjoy a long well deserved retirement.

A friend of mine manages the syndicate that own Brave Inca - confirmed last night that the horse has been retired.

Happy Retirement Inca!

Really glad to here it as his running yesterday was not what you want to see of a great old stager.
