Although I have stated in the past that this race should be banned due to the number of horses that are killed, I am going to be a bit of a hypocrite by joining in with the event.

Pick a horse and post it's name and let's see who wins.

My choice is SUNNYHILLBOY. 16/1

Deep Purple 16/1

[Frank97]

oops, should be 50/1, as you can see I don't place many bets.

Thank you I will wear it with pride.

Coming second when nobody else came first, is something of an achievement anyway?
