Granger let me know the bad news, and I’ve just popped in to go on-the-record to express my sadness on hearing of the apparent demise of Tanlic/Fist. Any ding-dongs I had with him were very short-lived, and always more pulling-of-legs than anything serious, and his forthright style always made...

Just wanted to wish all at TH an enjoyable and profitable Festival. I hope you all clean-up. All the best Grass. 👍

It’s a shame to see that the forum relaunch has made space for such conspiracy theory cranks and halfwits. This drivel comes not long after some other newbie twat was boosting for Katie Hopkins worldview. This place is fu*cked, and I’m checking out. Good luck to all the good guys. They know...

Johnson gone. Gove voluntarily out. Redwood voluntarily out. Raab voluntarily out. Cash voluntarily out. Grayling voluntarily out. Kwarteng voluntarily out. Lewis voluntarily out. Farage not standing. The architect cu*nts of Brexit all fu*cking off out of it, before they can be held to account...

Great news for Euronymous, this.

Such a great shame to hear about these two horses passing away. Native Upmanship was always a joy to watch jumping fences (around Aintree in particular), and though I’ve often been rude about his constitution over the years, there was never any doubting Harchibald’s talent. Both horses are...

I love that post, chaumi. Also, Steve Heighway was my favourite player when I was a mere nipper. (y)

Just to let everyone know that Anadin has chosen to send his competition winnings the way of the Racing Welfare charity - a tremendously generous gesture any way I look at it. (y)

Still need a DM from you Anadin, to sort out your cash prize.

If the return of Drone to TH is all that the upgrade delivers, it will have been worth it. Hope you are in the pink, chief. (y)

Would fancy him to go very close in the Durkan. Changing of the guard.

The winner is one of the most under-estimated and under-rated horses in training.

Whilst all the staying hurdlers are basically pigs, I like SDB in the G1 today. Ducked Aintree this year, gets his ground, and 8/1 a more than fair price for the old ba*stard to beat some mudlarks, imo. Have had a go at Rumi (20/1) in the opener. Just the three hurdles runs so still very-much...

Greetings, Ian - it has been a while. Hope you’re well.

Hope you’re over the worst of your health issues, EC21 - good to see you back.
