As per my post #64, I had an e/w bet on all of Ruby Walsh's rides today.
9.30 paid 57.30. Very lucky to have got a 22/1 winner which helped the pot. But I am sure Sportingbet can afford it!!!

Not long now, anyone going?

I dont usually bet ante post, but I've had a bet on MONTBAZON in the Supreme Nov Hurdle on Tuesday.
