View Full Version : The Derby
U/R not alone

Ok after my last foray into this forum, I was left a little dissapointed. I am what you lot upstairs would probably term a mug punter, but hey-ho we cant all be shrewd gamblers/traders greening up here there and everywhere our mucky little hands go. Although that said I'm quite good at poker and am showing profit there :wink:
Authorised will it win the derby? Frankie on board, I've been told all he has to do is steer it round I know this is a class horse and clearly I'd rather back a 6/1 shot than an odds on favourite but what does everyone/anyone else think?
I am also tempted to have a bet on Salford Mill place money though.
Many thanks

Although I really can't see past this one mate, as well you know, anything can happen in horse racing. Got to be a win bet on Authorised & look for a value place as well on sumert else.
Can't believe some mug told you it was a steering job :wink:

very interesting that O'Brian is saddling 8 against the fav.
perhaps he aims to have Authorized in a pocket and let one of his win :mrgreen: by any means

Well, not been a great day for jollies at Epsom today but Let's hope Funtime Frankie makes it a better one tomorrow. Hope no one was large on Sixties Icon.
Didn't see the race but coming last is not what anyone expected.

Well everyone thinks Authorized is a shoo (e) in and who am I to disagree !!
Aiden O'Brien is fielding 8 and I think Admiralofthefleet @ 7/1 with SJ offers a glimpse of value in the Best of O'Brien Special.
Betfair Prices to 100% say it should be a 6/1 shot so I will play this for live interest in the race.

I though the jolly's price was a little skinny.Made it look generous the way it won.
Fair play to those that kept the faith with Frankie

I actually thought Frankie was going to be a bad omen, but when he let the horse go the others had no chance....
