I don't do tips. I do "selections". Horses and reasons below:
Champion Court (liked the name)
Buena Vista (stayed in a spanish resort called this)
Medermit (bit like my surname)
Oscar Whisky (used to have a cat called whisky)
Divers (Thi sis what Daiva's name shows up as on google translate)
Mostly Bob (Obvious).
You may scoff, but the £128 i picked up yesterday was done on the same method! (Bit gutted because the £128 was still going on the last two horses - could have been £12k. Gambling is funny isn't it - I won £110 but was sad) _________________ @oneshotbobby on twitter |

The value of your bet may go down as well as up. No responsibility is taken for the loss of fivers. _________________ @oneshotbobby on twitter |

Here are Brodders selections; my fault, I was too eager!
| Quote: | Tough day today but really fancy Peddlers Cross in the first and a couple of e/w later
Peddlers Cross (Single)
Prince Erik (E/W)
Captain Chris (E/W)
Oscar Whisky (Free bet if E/W) but BB should win...
Niceonefrankie (E/W)
Becauseicoudntsee & Faasel (E/W)
Silly e/w 4-fold and trebles on 1,2,3, and 6 (Faasel) |
My main bet is going to be a Trixie on Riverside theatre, peddlers cross and our father _________________ @ryanpb |

Just as an aside....
I opened a Boylesports account to put my bets on yesterday and thought I would try my luck on a slot. I deposited £20 and got a £20 bonus, which I clicked Accept on without thinking about it.
15 minutes later and my £40 has become £160. It's at this point that I realise the catch - I have to wager £800 before I can withdraw this. Annoyingly, I would have won this without the £20 bonus.
Needless to say that as I reach the £50 left to wager requirement, I've got £50 left in my account. So rigged.
And then I won £150! Woop. withdraw, thanks very much. _________________ @oneshotbobby on twitter |

£800 to cash £20 bonus... supersick. Good job keeping hold of it though. I'd cash out or put it in the pokers if I were you  _________________ @ryanpb |

Already out and no more slots for bob. I lose money much slower at poker. _________________ @oneshotbobby on twitter |

Fu#k it- The moment I back a favourite they start running into fences instead of jumping them.
No more favourites _________________ @ryanpb |

| Fancied nothing today, but backed Sir des champs in the 1st. Then nearly emptied everything I own when I saw the price of BB, settled for backing VLV at 15/2 in the without BB market and the fc and exactas BB/VLV, so jumping the last I was willing him to win, as I could live to be 673 and never see a horse that good again. Have stuff for tmrw which I will post in the morning, and don't blame me when it goes tits up. |
