It was a great race, with two-thirds of the field finishing.

I think the modifications worked just fine, and the race is still the ultimate test of stamina. The Grand National will survive, if...

I saw that, Grass, thanks. Probably saved me money, as I now have a single on AS.

Nurburgring and Ahoy Senor in an ew double for me, with various other odds and sods. Nurburgring is my new cliff horse, and Ahoy Senor will cope with these conditions at his favourite track.

What I do resent is guessers getting a winner. They then think it's the easiest game in the world. They may then give it another two or three tries, before their luck runs out. And because they are...

Great read, BH. And I wasn’t swept away with a load of useless information.

Great stuff all round - many thanks!

The day before Cheltenham, and… I’m definitely feeling it now!

I’m sort of itching to go out tonight to get the party started prematurely, but that would be a bad move, given that I will partake...

I’ve actually tired myself out doing ante-post bets. I’ve probably invested over a £100 on all that, so will now wait until next week for my next bets. Increasingly I have found the handicaps the...

If I get half my money back, I’ll be happy enough. Anything more is a bonus.

Nurburgring is in a few AP multiples at 14/1 in The Triumph. His collateral form convinces me, and he looks hardened.

World of difference between laughing at ourselves and laughing at “that group of people over there”, Dessie.

To be absolutely fair to NJH, he has taken his responsibilities very seriously this time. He knows he is responsible for the wellbeing of a once in a generation horse, and he knows racing fans DO...

Great idea - many thanks, Double J.

It depends what you’re looking for from Cheltenham, I suppose. For me, it’s a week off work; three days in the pub (I need to rest for one day!); and one long, continuous betting bonanza. I’ve also...

He’s also an unbelievably polite man, given all the noise around him all the time. WPM is a huge credit to racing.

I swear by this latter method, so I always hold back a bit of my Saturday pot for such snippets; Nicholls is very good in this regard. You won’t win fortunes on the 15/8 favourite, with a quote of...

Well done, Chaumi!

In assessing his brief career, we should also remember that CH scared off connections of a dual Champion Hurdle winner, before last year’s race. Honeysuckle certainly would have raced against SM last...

Yes, Ruby could be a sod not chasing a place.

My advice would be not to take short cuts. If you want to follow your pastime seriously, study the form properly, and don’t eliminate a horse because...

Cloudy Dream gave 8 pounds to BD, for a 3 and a half length beating. Charbel never won a Grade 1 chase, so is not a yardstick. Altior took them all on, and was never beaten at his best. He won a...

Many thanks, mate.
