Ascot, Thu 17th June

[Mr Tree]

Dear Mr The H,

I am going to Ladies Day at Ascot next thursday and, apart from living it up, i plan to make myself rich. Please may you assist me in my goal and provide me a few tips.

(i will also share my tips :sneakoff: a mate of mine is alright at the horses, so i'll nick his tips and tell you all :))

[The H]

i shall plonk them here on the 16th of June :)

ps.. are you going to bet on each race or do you just want a couple of 'winners' :)

[Mr Tree]

ta very much sir (i know it's an early request but that's just cos i know i'll forget otherwise :rolleyes: )

some winners, some value - whatever u can provide (:eek: ). i just wanna impress the girls with my amazing betting knowledge ;)

I am going to Ladies Day at Ascot next thursday and, apart from living it up, i plan to make myself rich by getting hold of some ugly old rich divorcee and marrying it at breakneck speed so her portfolio becomes 50% mine and then I'll divorce it

Excellent Business Plan DtB, glad you learnt something at Uni ! :eek: :sorted:

Are you SURE you maintained the bragging rights after saturday? :suspect: It all got a bit messy, and I think you may have forgotten my errr, 20-1 shot :yes:

[The H]

Passing Glance was my horse :fishing:

I shall also be there, however horses are not the main attraction at Ascot, if you have not been before you will know what I mean by 14.00. Then watch all the girls fall around on the ground pissed up while the chelsea / millwall / west ham boys have a rumble around 16.30 by the rear bar
Will be back on Friday as well so will watch for tips....

oh that's Plan A Sir, i'm just making sure i have a back-up Plan B :yes:

[Mr Tree]

yo :wave:

just a reminder that i would dearly love some tips for tomorrow (if possible, can you give an indication on how confident you are!! :D) - you can shut this thread tho if u like and just use finchbee's one (:mad1: )

[The H]

:eek: no i'll brush up on my racecards.... pm finchbee and see if his wife will let you have her tips...

[Mr Tree]

it's lucky i have a back-up plan! Buy The Sun and nick all their tips ;)

[The H]

As i thought, there's nothing at Ascot for the real punter.. Fun bets all the way, if you are gonna have fiver on every race, go for something e/w.

Get a copy of the RacingPost, it will know more than i do about all the horses i've picked.....

2.30 (12 run)
'Blue Dakota' (10/11f) may well win, but won't back it odds on, I like the look of 'Skywards' (9/2), but my value pick is 'Mystical Land' (10/1). 'Joseph Henry' may not run but if he does, may be worth considering.

3.05 (9 run)
Nothing i fancy in this race. You can't rule out 'Punctilious' (7/2f), but i'll pass her over for Modesta (8/1). Wouldn't rule out 'Feaat', 'Rave Reviews' and 'Sahool' either. (that's 5 picks out of 9... great tipster eh)

3.45 (14 run)
A couple stand out.. Should see 'Mr Dinos' and 'Papineau' (ridden by Dettori and Fallon) battle it out. Mr Dinos for me to win the Gold Cup again.

4.20 (20 run) pin sticking time. e/w only
'Etmaam' (12/1) ?
'Destination Dubai' (14/1)?

4.55 (13 run)
'Privy Seal' (7/1) can go close, 'Mutafanen' and 'Lord Mayor' (5/1) too. Lord Mayor edges it as the classier of the 3 horses.

5.30 (30 run!!!!!) e/w picks only

'Alshawameq' (14/1) has a great draw. So does 'Gold Mask' (12/1). Have been following 'Zonus' (8/1) this season and can't be ruled out but its too short for me. 'Credit' (33/1) is drawn nicely and is the long shot of the day.

[Sweepy]

Ingrandire has been brought over from Japan for the Ascot 3:45 for tomorrow (17th). Worth a small bet.

[Mr Tree]

(that's 5 picks out of 9... great tipster eh)

you'll do for me :love2:

(we'll see about that come tomorrow, mind :mad1: :sorted: )

cheers H, them's the sorta tips i was after (you say 'fiver' like it's a nothing bet - that's my week's wages going down the pan y'know :cry: )

H can you do me a favour... if your mate gambling bee can tear himself away from d-tunnel.. can he come up with a few GOOD selections for Ascot tomorrow.... its for my mate Jen (one of the ones that came to epsom with us) as she is going tomorrow cheers :sorted: :wave: :sorted:

[The H]

he may be worse for wear after watching England screw up.. i can guarantee that there will be no certs tomorrow, but i will dig out some e/w chances.

[nocoat]

yeah if you could... but can you do it by 3pm? or do you need more resources that are only available on the day :cry: :(
