Interesting comments from NC re: each way betting

don"t think I could back a 66/1 shot to win only

Yeah. Makes zero sense to me and was hoping someone here could explain it.

think prob something to do with showing pts profit as a tipping service and hes all about the % plays too.

For anyone not signed up Channing gone with these:

1.30 Rose of the Moon
2.05 Rule the World & The New One
2.40 Vintage Star

Already tipped up Mal de Biere & Sommersby in Champ Chase but advising no bet now as less than 8 runners!

1. Back In Focus 9/4
2. Tofino Bay 8/1

The next race is going to be manic.  I put my bets on here last week when we were getting paid for 3 places.  Only two getting paid if you"re placing your bets today, so choose carefully and good luck all!

[Laxie]

Had a great time at Cheltenham yesterday, numerous glasses of Champagne, followed by numerous pints of the Black stuff. Logged on to Channing, and couldn"t really agree with him on much! Was all over "The New one" until Bob Champion told us the stable had a virus, so switched my allegiance! Oh dear. Any way had Back in Focus in the first, Pont Alexandre in the second, Boston Bob in the third, Sizing Europe in the fourth, and this where it starts to get good! In the Fifth thanks to Steve Smith Eccles I was on Medinas to win, paid 43:1 on the tote! Ptit Zig EW in the sixth, and then in the 7th had Briar Hill at 25:1 to win! How the hell was that 25:1!
So three winners all backed to win, a nicely profitable day!
