socky1 Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 The end has come of another year and as allways it been a losing one for the sockster However there have been some high points too. I'd like to hear your best punts of the year here's mine. They both involve the same horse In march I had Big bet on Trabolgan to win Sun Alliance Novices Chase at Chletnham and stood in a pub and cheered it home. Then a few weeks backed it for hennessy and was that sure it would win kept backing it again and agian as it drifted out. :notworthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowles10 Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: Best punting moment of the year mine was sticking up CELTIC MILL at 36.0 on here the night before the Temple stakes at Sandown in May. Won the race at 16/1 just holding on. Couldnt believe the Betfair price, i think it was the highest it went. :nana Watching Motivator win the Derby was another. Great price 3/1 for what looked a cert on the day. I, too stuck my neck out & backed Trabolgan at the festival & had a great win on it. Cant wait for the festival.
