Keep getting Coventry right on a match by match basis and am now going for them outright.

Scott Nicholls signing for them is a massive boost to a side who would have gone close anyway. He might take a meeting or two to get back in the swing (ipswich home is a decent introduction back) but having him Harris, Kennet and Schlein in one side is an awesome line up and will keep you in the hunt well into the play offs and hopefully into the Final as that line up would even worry Swindon.


Looks like Chris Harris is responding already as he broke the track record last night in their last meeting before Nicholls can race.

15/2 with stan James.....Ladbrokes have taken the hint and cut them to 4/1.

In the supporting competitions to the Greyhound Derby I think Freedom Man at 16/1 (Champion Hurdle) and Drumna Willow at 25/1 (Derby Plate) are worth a few quid (3 semi's in each competition first 2 going through).

Was looking at prices for tomorrows football, Portsmouth look like they are worth a flutter at 5/2 to beat Latics with Bet365.

Button on pole for the GP but Raikonnen looks a good bet.

Button was 3/1 pre qualifying.....in hindsight that was a great bet

Temple Stakes - Saturday 23/5/2009
Reverence
He stands out like a sore thumb to me in current conditions. Reverence ticks all the right boxes - course form (2 wins from 3 starts including in the Group 1 Haydock Park Sprint Cup), great form on soft/heavy ground which it's likely to be on Saturday (395k of his 486 winnings have been on this including 2/2 on Heavy), his trainer knows the time of day with these older sprinters (Tedburrow, Damalis were regular victors at advanced ages) and Reverence has had a good start to the season when runner-up to Inxile (since DQ'd from 1st in a French Group 3) in Ireland in April. He's a great price at 50/1 for this.

Advice: 1pt each-way Reverence @ 50/1 (Bluesq, Betfred)

Also fancy Look Busy as a horse with a great record at 5f and will go on the ground, yard in form etc. (25/1 with Bet365 and Bluesq).


Good Luck all

Look Busy wins - hope you were all on

Sadly those I fancied at Haydock have turned in terrible performances (including Reverence).

No but might have to start taking an interest in the gee-gees again with tipping like that
