what a day for the bookies !!!!!

with the demise of the 2 hotpots in the form of voy poy ustedes and kasbah bliss, lost count of the doubles we took on these today, neither looked comfortable although its a credit to the horse how close voy poy got considering the way he jumped. But from what i have witnessed this week both at the independent chain i work at and my trips into shops during the week, business has declined on previous years........... the machines are holding up though !!!

Tomorrow is Gold Cup day, for me though is all about one horse ...........Little Shilling who runs in the Martin Pipe Conditional hurdle, perhaps we could have done with a little rain and another half mile but hopefully Shilling can get round and sneak a place, Good Luck to connections.

A couple of bets today and both ran with credit, obviously Punchestowns went close but Slash and Burn gave Optimum a decent run for their money @ 33/1 until a mistake about 5 out put paid to his chances.
