He was very ill the other year and didn’t post for ages. Is there any chance that he is recovering in hospital?

Well, my lad ran honourably as usual. Pleased that a horse with a similar profile won. Good to know that you don’t always have to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds for a good horse. ( just saw his horse box go by: he’ll be tucked up in his stable by now).

I was thinking about him today. It’s very worrying.

Wise Eagle has never been out of the first two at Musselburgh…

I think it’s the most romantic film I’ve ever seen ( I’m not usually into romantic films) especially the bit with Alice. I hadn’t, till that point, realised that there was a love story developing between Alice and Uncas ( how beautiful is he).Although I always think about a time after the film...

I’ve just been recommended Black Snow so it’s another one to add to the list. The good thing about A Thousand Blows, given that we’re watching it with the family, is that, unlike Peaky Blinders there are no steamy sex scenes! But do wish they’d show season two a bit sooner given that both...

Just binge watched A Thousand Blows on Disney. Very good as one would expect from the team behind Peaky Blinders.

Do they allow dogs at Musselburgh? Probably too far for us to go but it’s a track I’ve never been to. Mind you, it’ll be rammed next week.

Wise Eagle has never ran a bad race at Musselburgh so I’m not going to desert him. Thankfully they seem to have decided not to pursue his hurdling career. Adams horses are running well at the moment, too.

I was only thinking about Timmy Murphy today and wondering what he was doing. I always used to back the bumper horses he rode for Fergal.

That’s another ear worm for me…

Liz Doyle doesn’t bring many horses over here, does she? Always makes me think of Mrs Doyle from Father Ted and I get an ear worm of ‘ aargh, go on’ and have to make myself a cup of tea ( which I am currently drinking).

Snipe.

As you know, I follow Adam Nicols runners. Well, today I had my first ever successful ew double thanks to Trailblazer and an *unpronounceable one! Well chuffed for me and the stable. Fake a Mac!

Watching Looks Like Troubles Gold Cup has brought back so many memories of that era. Strong Promise coming third ( I bought some flowers for the garden with my ew winnings) only to die at Aintree, just as his old adversary One Man had done when Strong Promise was out for a year. See More...
