New book at 10 o'clock now 11/2 with Bet365
I got 6/1 with Hills this morning, and the girl in there said the horse had been popular all morning, that was around 10am.
Best price now 9/2 with Junior as short as 100/30 with one firm.

-Straight from Pipey on Junior.
Ive backed Junior Mark, but was wondering what your take is on what Pipe said in this morning's RP? At the end of his part on Junior he says, "but this isn't the Grand National".
I was a bit concerened with that comment.

I think he just means this isn't his target. This is still a prep race for the national, we all know that. His target is to be primed for the national so I doubt he is at the peak of condition at this moment. Everyone knows that and you take that risk when you back him.
That said, it's still a race and it's prize money and he has a favourites chance to win it. Other horses are in the same boat. WER is going to the national as well.
immels wonkey eye said:a little bit off the horse racing, i have had van persie first goal and 2-1, does that count as a winning bet as the 1st goal was a own goal?
Ricster said:How did the other horse get up? Everyone in the bookies i was in thought Junior had got up and won, alot of surprised and puzzled looks from the punters.
Dont think Junior's jumping is going to be good enough for the National though, just on todays observation, but if he can go clear, then i'd say he's in with a chance.
Still cant believe the result.
