Completely conflicting information coming from my two separate contacts. One is saying don't touch Daarik with the unknown ground, the other is saying look at the 7% backing this morning and to keep the bet. I'm going to keep them both on for that race at the prices I got. The contact who mentioned the 7% backing has said that Daarik is 100% a group horse.I've got some strong fancies today but waiting to hear about Daarik in the 1.15. I have two selections in the race as managed to get them both at 8/1 but with more rain expected and the ground possibly being soft later on rather than good to soft, Daarik might not go on it. He has still been backed into 7/2 but I'll see what my guy says before cashing out or keeping it. My other selection in the race is a confident one for me (check my ascot pick for that). Daarik has only raced on soft ground once and he finished 10/10 and pretty much broke down so I'll see what my guy says.
The big festivals can be incredibly difficult to come out with a profit, never mind a big one so play safe this week and don't go chasing. I'm sticking to usual stakes today as I got some lovely ante post prices but I'll see how it goes the rest of the week and I might lower stakes slightly.

Basically say it was backed in from 5/1 to 7/2.....that is the percentage difference. I'm not saying those are the figures for 7% but hopefully it makes sense.What do you mean by 7% backing?
Ok I understandBasically say it was backed in from 5/1 to 7/2.....that is the percentage difference. I'm not saying those are the figures for 7% but hopefully it makes sense.
Should have listened to the guy I trust more but at the prices I was happy to risk both. Neither ran well, especially Daarik which was completely down to the ground. Poor start but we move on.Completely conflicting information coming from my two separate contacts.

I had Circus as my free bet today, can’t understand how they keep coming in yet I can’t land anything I put my own money on.had circus to win and in a double with Mohican heights fingers crossed on the double
Just to prove my point I had Sceptical in that antepost...Finally, after a tough start Battaash has bolted up there. I had £50 @ 3/1 so even though the first two lost, it's still profit for the day.

Don't follow sorry mate? What point are you trying to prove?Just to prove my point I had Sceptical in that antepost...
I think he's saying he's on a run where he's only winning on his free bets, not those he's actually putting his hand in his pocket for?Don't follow sorry mate? What point are you trying to prove?

Yes, what insomnia said. ?I think he's saying he's on a run where he's only winning on his free bets, not those he's actually putting his hand in his pocket for?
Very interesting, I get a lot of good info and with Crowley on board, that could be a great shout. I have Bright Melody 8/1 each way in the same race and it looks a tough one to pick but could be an interesting one to look at.A mate of mine gave me ‘Motakahayel’ (spelling)! Today 14/1 and ‘Candescence ‘ 16/1 yesterday
He tips ‘Hukum’ again at Royal Ascot tomorrow 2.25 I think!
Good luck ?

Also, did he just give you one a day or were those just the winners?
