I wish you'd stop saying that.

Cheers Ric, nice £30 back.

Ah, we're Leicester fans, we're used to it - Say somethings not gonna happen (i.e - Us winning) or say it's gonna happen (i.e - We'll get relegated) it's a nice surprise if the opposite happens! :thumbup:

Yes, but do you have to say it every single flaming time?

I'm gonna save Matt the trouble of posting and say "I can't believe that I've won a bet. Me, the most unluckiest person in the world when it comes to betting"

Well done to the chaps who backed Dressed To Dance and Directas Digger. Those two won me £200 last night as I had a fiver on each and then a fiver double. My tipping source is back on track now. I suppose that will now lead to a drought! lol

I also had a tenner on Ballack to score at any time last night, so all in all i've got back £235 off £25 worth of bet's yesterday. Leaves me in a very nice position for Ascot.

There will be a betting frenzy today from me, I will be windmilling bet's in all over the shop.

Holland are 23/10 to win tonight with Skybet, is that worth a punt considering they'll have a weakened team out and the Romanians have a very good chance of qualifying? I'm unsure on that game. I suppose the draw looks the best bet at 11/4.

The bookies aren't usually wrong with these type of matches but 6/5 on Romania looks a bit stingy 11/4 for the draw suggests that a draw is out of the question from a bookies point of view (9/4 is usual for a draw) I'm gonna go for Holland to keep up the momentum.

It's taken Van Basten a few years to get the this team to even get on with each other never mind get them playing well together and I don't think he'll risk anything by dropping half the team.

Holland-Italy double for me £20 at 6.82/1

I reckon I might join you with that mate. You got anything come through for Ascot today? You're usually good on the flat pal. I can't see past Fleeting Spirit, tempted for £50 on it after last night's wins.

Fleeting Spirit should piss it but one thing I never do is bet horses big on the back of a win!

I always stick to my usual stakes and that way I won't be too disappointed if it goes tits up.

I'm going for a £1 Canadian (£26) on the first five races although I'm tempted not to bet on Henrythenavigator at 8/13 so back something in the last instead.

I've read 3 or 4 of the Royal Ascot guides over the weekend but I've yet to pick my horses so let you know later what I fancy.

That Mamlook looks like it could go well at a big price for Pipe in the 4.55

Ladbrokes have got a Fleeting Spirit/Henrythenavigator special price double at 9/2 so thought I'd stick a tenner on it.

Also done my usual Templegate bet!

14:30 Darjina 11/2

15:05 Kingsgate Native 7/1

15:45 Falco 5/1

16:20 Himalya 4/1

16:55 Baddam 14/1

30p Canadian

I know I'm a sucker for Templegate but he's been on form lately and I'd be gutted if he had a good day and I hadn't backed them.

The thing is though with the way the tournament is lined up, Holland could well end up playing whoever finishes second in their group in the semi's. Who would you rather play? Italy, France or Romania? I can see a draw double being likely.

I've had a tenner on the Fleeting Spirit/Navigator double as well.

My picks are as follows:

2.30 - Darjina

3.05 - Fleeting Spirit

3.45 - Falco

4.20 - Peter Tchaikovsky

4.55 - Hawbridge Princess

Done a 30p Canadian like you've done.

I've also had £2.50 e/w on Stubbs Art in the 3.45 and a fiver on Bushranger in the 5.30

Gonna see how they all get on before I decide on tonight's bets. Will be backing Hasty Retreat though.
