Most annoying aspect of the Evan Williams cheaty horse was that it was 80-1 into 85-40. 80-1 into 2-1 fine but 85-40? They should have had another grand on. At least it wasn’t 9-5.
I met Chris Beek at Taunton once - he told me that ‘the Nick Williams horse isn’t fancied’. I said ‘that’s funny, because I own 25% and have had plenty on’. Got up close home under inspired @Dazjacob10 ride. God bless Quasar D’oudairies.
In fairness, after @LeonnaMayor's Rohaan (33-1) and @DarylCarter7's Oh This Is Us (18-1) in recent weeks, I needed to pull my finger out. It'a all down to the new sauna/office.
Owner J P McManus bought everyone a drink at Towcester. Bookmaker friend of mine was driving but she had half a lager just to be part of a momentous occasion. Her less-classy colleague, who shall remain nameless, ordered a triple brandy.
A tough evening for Mark Crehan and while I completely understand the frustration of punters, please remember this is a young man who made a genuine error. No nasty tweet will change the result so forgive and forget. No doubt he will bounce back better than ever
