Thanks for the tip earlier in the week, I'm £20 as a result so you can have one of those pints you owe me pack. I also had King John's castle, Snowy Morning, Vodka Bleu, Cloudy lane and Butlers Cabin.

Gutted that I did'nt put King John's Castle and Snowy Morning as each way bets though but at least I've won some money!

Wrote six horses names down.
Asked my fella if I could have a reverse forecast for my first four and he said no:(


Picked first, second, third, and fourth. My last two came sixth and ninth but he didn't put those on.
He put £2 each way on Comply or Die and a pound each way on the others. Am due £30.50. (His horse fell) :lol:

One horse let me down for the placepot :(
