    This purely to be considered a bit of fun.

    The challange is simple - pick a horse from each race that is featured in our our ongoing Tipster threads - namely the Pricewise and Extra team, Hugh Talyor and Gary O'Brien (Gary Lattimer standing in right now) and see if you can pick better. Yes you can go for the favourite in every race but don't let that lull you into thinking you'll beat the pros - most favs loose.

    I'll post all the selections in this thread every day and if anyone fancies a go - feel free.

    2-10 Southwell

    Life's Challenge (USA) 13/2 38-10 M Johnston —**»ch f Mr Greeley (USA) - Danse Du Diable (IRE) (Sadler's Wells)Greg Fairley Tracked leaders, effort and not clear run over 2f out, ridden to lead over 1f out, stayed on strongly to forge clear inside final furlong (op 9-2)

    The magic sign are ducking this one and are happy to lay 10's Ultimate. Unexposed , good stable in good form. Only negative is the draw in 4, but his style of racing can overcome that. Plus 2 seconds faster than Ultimate over the same trip and track.

    A win and 3 places, not too bad (and certainly better than Gary O'Brien who had a shocker on his return)

    No, Mike hes granted immunity because he doesnt get the same unwarrranted and relenting hype that is given to Hugh. I watch ATR everyday. When he does get one, its Hugh Taylor tips another winner, all day long, and you could easily be fooled into thinking it was a regular occurance. Yesterday when they said Hugh Taylor continues his great run I did actually laugh, but people who dont examine his record are being drip fed this all the time. I want him to tip winners for the people following him, because the way I look at is we are all punters in it together but I do want the people who havent looked at it to see the actual number of consecutive losers he gives before they decide to follow him.
