I quite like Mexico for the Copa America at 11/1 and also to win their group at around 11/10?

A very solid and strong team they have and I think playing in the USA will be fine for them.

They have looked good in their friendlies so far...and with Brazil focusing on the Olympics, Uruguay missing Suarez for some and Argentina having a weak defence, I think this tournament is there for the taking.

Agree that Brazil won't fair well, so an Unfancied team like Mexico or even Equador could go all the at to the final and then who knows. Suarez will feature for Uraguay and the form he's in could see him bag a few goals. Columbia's Bucca at bigger odds may also score a few too.

The only way Minding stays a mile and a half is in a horse box.

What an incredible display by Minding, badly hampered and horses tend to struggle to re-quicken if they hit traffic but she still managed to get ahead and hold on very gamely, great stuff

Tomorrow's Derby I'm on 25/1 outsider Humphrey Bogart.

You heard it here first

[Burningaham]

I'm going to the derby tomorrow on a corporate do and know nothing about horse racing so I may well go for that one. £1 each way probably.

Wouldn't recommend going each way unless you can get 4 places, no value as the race is so open, lots of runners and you'd only get the standard 1/5 odds 3 places on course.

I'll be on outsiders too, Algometer and Red Verdon

4.30 Red Verdon // Algometer (both win)

Cannot wait for the Derby today, as wide open as it's ever been in a long while and should be a cracking face.

Certainly makes picking a winner that much more difficult.

I like the look of Ulysses, Cloth of Stars and Harzand.

I've backed US Army Ranger at all prices down for the derby. His trial didn't look too bad considering him and Port Douglas (a stablemate) pulled away from the field and with Port Douglas nearly three times the price and Ryan Moore still choosing USAR it may prove profitable.

Good luck all.

I had already had a couple of ante post singles but also played E/W 2x2 in Dash and Derby
Maljaa, Harry Hurricane (though don't like the draw)
Cloth Of Stars, Harzand.

A couple of small worries such as Cloth Of Stars not getting a clear run and the draw for Harry Hurricane.

[screech]

They are still undecided if harzand is going to run, at 1:30 it was 60/40 to run
It had a shoe slip this morning and drew blood so they have had vets etc with the horse all day

They said on TV just before the 2.35 it was all fine?

Nice bit of place money at 40/1 for me in the first race with Goodwood Zodiac!

[raggy]

Had a nice win on postponed, and the forecast with found in second. Was always gonna be a nice easy win.

For the rest of the day I've got

Epsom
15:45 - Duke of Firenze
16:30 - Harzand/Algometer

Musselburgh 17:30 - impulsive American

Hexham 15:50 - Hartside

Doncaster 17:40 - Next stage

Lingfield 17:45 - Barnaby Brook

[r99c]

Also on Algometer and Barnaby Brook, good luck to us

[il_martello_di_genovesi]

Maljaa was absolutely terrible there. Not in the race at all.

[raggy]

Something dodgy with Hartside there..

Tremendous from Eden Harzand!

The way he held off US Army Ranger and found more was fantastic.
