3rd for VIOLET'S GIFT, Brochdoll - hope you had some e/w at longer odds, unlike me not getting on even a fiver @ 7/1 for TTC. Here's hoping for further fun with your horse.

Cheers, Troodles - ONE COOL CHICK was down to run at Brighton tomorrow, so I was interested to see why John Bridger was running her there, when her most recent outing at Epsom seemed disastrously adrift. Didn't handle that course, so why pick a tighter, more eye-popping version?
I'm not sure I understand trainers' logic at times. Perhaps make that 'most of the time'!

An early start to the new Jump's season for me, with Vincitore running in his first chase at Stratford tomorrow. Only 4 runners, but the nerves are a-jangle already. The trip is on the sharp side for him and the Hobbs horse has a higher rating over hurdles. Getting round without mishap will be the priority.
Fingers crossed it all goes well michael

Good luck, Michael.
Here's to a safe return.
Ah! but a man's reach should exceed his grasp......
Big good luck for a safe trip round, MO, and a nice wee place if poss.

Supreme Quest of whom I own a quarter is back on track at Bath tomorrow after fifteen weeks off. She's had a number of niggling problems, none of them serious. She's put on a bit of weight and Roger Charlton thinks it's possible she may need the race. Sajwah gave a considerable boost to her form last week and her chance is there for all to see. We think she didn't stay 6f last time out so the drop back to 5f will suit and the trainer has always been adamant that she's a fast ground filly. Supreme Quest is best in on official ratings although I personally think that her official mark of 82 is very much on the high side. Lady Jameela is the obvious danger.
I can't get to Bath to see it as I'm working. It's a pity because in the event of her winning I was looking forward to standing in the winners' enclosure and announcing that in the light of the very modest prize money on offer I intend to relocate my bloodstock interests abroad.
Anyway, fingers crossed.
Good luck Gus. Well done for running into Best Terms and Sajwah first 2 starts.

I think that explains the handicap mark, DJ.
Fingers will be crossed for you, Gus.
Unfair that you can't be there.

Love to have heard the speech, Gus! Best of, etc., etc.

She's a non-runner. Trainer "not happy" with her.
You should hear what she says about the trainer!
Disappointing, Gus. Hope all's well with her soon.

I run Lough Corrib and Evergreen Forest tomorrow at Bath in the 2.40 and 4.40, I have 3 spare badges if anyone would like one.
Very nice of you, Flambeau, and best of luck with the duo.

I'm as sick as a small hospital. Was looking forward to the next two days with decent chances. Copper Dock and Zhukhov at Laytown and Bangalore Diamond at Down Royal. Copper Dock looked certain to get in being no. 1 on the ballot but all ten above him declared so he's out! Just hoping to get a non runner so he gets in. Thats after Bangalore and Rattle the Latch missed getting in by one each on Sunday in Dundalk. First Dundalk meeting that I can remember there was no non-runners!!
If someone could sabotage one of the other runners I would be eternally grateful!!
Do not mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance nor my kindness for weakness.
Surely one will come out?
I hate to blow my own trumpet, but as (once again) no other bugger's going to do it - TRY THE CHANCE won again at Carlisle today. For those of you who didn't bother to take the 5-1...
