As a spectacle, i suppose Royal Ascot is up there with the best but, imho, it's not a patch on Cheltenham for action and excitement and i always think there is a lot more hype about this festival,...
In the banquet of national hunt racing, Cheltenham is the main course and Aintree the dessert - the Grand National aside, of course. Many of those who took part in the Festival also try their luck at...
Here we are again, the best NH meeting in the World bar non. Awful weather will not spoil the spectacle, a tough lot these NH lads and lassies. I have done the Placepot and Jackpot and put the first 4...
Typical York cavalry charge to start the meet. Will be giving that a miss along with the Juddmonte Stakes. My old favourite Poet's Word runs in it and although I fancy it the price does not fit my...
Though, as i intimated at the weekend, not so glorious for me in recent years. Still, on the premise that you have to be in it to win it, i persevere, though i will only be staking a fiver a day...
Well after last nights excitement a bit of relaxing racing. I am posting early as I need to be out handy for a dental appointment and an errand or two to run. Should be back in before the off if all...
Started a new one after the spelling mistake in the header yesterday. Blank drawn yesterday so can only get better. Some good racing today, but a couple of large fields make it even harder to choose....

I thought it odd that the cameras followed the Irish bloke, and interviewed him many times after he was bailed, where he as good as said, he was responsible for GBH, with a grin on his face. Yet...
Have had a look through today's runners and have made my choices. Doesn't seem 5 minutes since last year. I had a nice little double up at the weekend so it is free all week. Murillo @ 7/1 Goldream @...
Did anyone watch the first episode tonight of MURDER IN THE FAMILY? Its going to be on every night this week. Any thoughts on it so far? Its early days yet but so far do you feel he is guilty ?...
watched garden rescue BBC1 ..what has hapened to Charlie Dimmock ? she has morphed into a gargantuan size and now waddles instead of walks...would expect all that outdoors work to keep her trim...but...
Well it seems like only yesterday that we were starting last years meeting. I have had a scan of the papers and web sites and have picked my horses for a little punt. The ones that I have marked * I...
Why does my iPhone cut out when it still has power? For example, it's at 38% and it cuts out. Try to turn it back on and it needs charging. I start charging and then it comes straight on with a little...
