⚠️ RACING ABANDONED ⚠️

Unfortunately, we have had to abandon today’s racing (15th March) owing to the weather conditions and what has been one of the wettest winters on record for the area.

Ticket holders will be contacted in due course.

Day saved in the last, courtesy of a 9/2 winner and this lovely 66/1 place. There havent been any long priced horses I fancied until this one, and it ran a beaut.

I guess this is why my friends call me Professor Longshot... 👍

Plessed to see Auguste Rodin win the #Derby. A few quid ante post and brings in to play a nice #Cheltenham 2024 ante post.

Only other bet today is Venturous in the last #Epsom.

Good luck all.

So for the first time is 23 years (lockdpwm aside), I won't be walking up Evesham Road for Day 1 of #CheltenhamFestival.

A few reasons:
1... the cost is rising and the magic is dwindling.
2... for many there, it's not about the racing.
3... we're heading to #FfosLas on Friday!

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

Cannot see past Twilight Glory (3.18). Good luck all!

#Chepstow

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

First race trip of the year. Will try and post some fancies, but a nice card and looking forward to a good day! Good to catch up with James @DragonBetWales too...

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

3.35 Doncaster. Star Turn.

Current 16/1 seems too big IMO. 6 places with SkyBet.

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

Places. Just.

[Professor Longshot @ProfLongshot]

Diol Ker (14.50) is a lovely EW price today. 28/1 for 6 places with some, with 33s on offer if you're happy to settle for five places.

I'll also have a few quid on Steal a March for the #CheltenhamFestival NRNB before it runs this afternoon.

Hope you're all well!

Getting my bets on before my over indulgence fogs the brain. Venetia loves this race and her other runner will most likely head to Boxing Day's Aintree meet. Can see the field being reduced given our current weather in south Wales too.
