Count the horse's legs. If the number is less than or greater than four, don't bet on it. Try to pick one that will run faster than the other horses.

Also, make sure all the horses are genuine horses and that two people in a pantomime outfit haven't slipped through in some hare-brained attempt at a betting scam.

Nowt for the 15.50?
Apart from your agreeing with the MancEveNews on Road To Love and Whitbarrow, so far I have no agreement between it, you, and the Sporting Life.
So long since I read a form card there's not much point trying myself, really.

I may adopt my old dogtrack method of "prettiest handler" when they go round the ring before each race.

Hmmm.. I seem to have missed the 15:50.. looking at the card I'd probably go for Fonthill Road..

Hey, did you just nick those picks from AtTheRaces ?
They agree with you right through the card...

Nope.. I went to: http://www.haydock-park.co.uk/racing/cardbydate.jsp?date=12/08/2006
looked at the form, looked at the ante-post betting and then chose the names I liked..

How about the other dogtrack tactic of judging the condition of the horses' arses?

We used to reckon any dog that stopped for a dump during the pre-race parade might run a bit better afterwards...

13:40 - Audience
14:15 - Ellens Academy
14:45 - Mulaqat
15:20 - Dansili Dancer
15:50 - The Jobber
16:25 - Tadlil
16:55 - Squirtle

To be fair, a goodly number of your picks didn't run.

May
