nice!!
Its a mental feeling, completely nervous, and you see it pull away from the back' Go on!!'
Awesome
also had a more down to earth bet, John Part & Fiorentina to win, 5-1 so another good win with a fiver stake!

I reemmber why i lumped on it so hard. It was When the horses were going down to the start the other Joint favourite looked quite edgy, Calculating cruised down to the start looking very relaxed... So that was the reason...

On the Flip Side of the coin....about 7 years ago, I lumped £500 on Australia at odds of 1/6 to beat G.B in a Rugby League Test.
Resulting in another Credit Card to the Limit at that time
