    Yeah but nowadays I am glad he's training it rather than sat on it at 78 years young!!!!

    Trainers In Form

    So your ignoring the trainer who has won with his last four runners whose sole entry today has been backed from sixes into fours???

    The 2025 York August Meeting Day 1 (Wednesday) thread

    All roads lead to York for myself normally but not at £80 a pop to get into the members enclosure.

    The 2025 Great St Wilfrid Handicap

    Relieved to see Rock Opera stand his ground and glad I took the 12/1 now. Wanted an high draw and allotted stall 14. Ethan Tindall's allowance takes its weight down to 7:12 the same weight he carried to third in the York dash. Just rewatched the York dash on the Sporting Life website and the...

    What are you backing Today? Part 2

    The Geoff Oldroyd bandwagon rolls into Doncaster all being well this weekend where: PROJECT GEOFIN is entered in the 5:25 race. In 2025 Geoff has sent out 37 runners from the 14 horses he trains and has had 11 winners (30% strike rate). All the horses are owned by Bond Thoroughbreds so I...

    The 2025 Great St Wilfrid Handicap

    Richard Fahey had four runners in the race last year and had the first two home. He has three entered this year but the only one with a serious chance seems to be Rock Opera who finished a close third behind Elmonjed at York with an inexperienced jockey riding. Have taken the 12/1

    The 2025 Great St Wilfrid Handicap

    After the Racing League Shergar Cup and the Sunday Series I don't think anything could excite me now!!!!

    The 2025 Shergar Cup

    I backed Suite Francaise in the opener at Haydock today as I thought Joe Fanning might steal a march on the other runners from the front. It's a pity the so called top jockeys didn't think the same as there were some shocking rides in the race.

    I spoke to him at Thirsk many moons ago he seemed a genuine down to earth guy.

    The 2025 Racing League

    It shows how it's attracting the general publics imagination. They are offering free racecourse entry for every racing league fixture.

    What are you backing Today? Part 2

    As the wonderful Shergar Cup takes centre stage this weekend I have decided to look for a decent priced winner elsewhere. The reasoning being that most of the jockeys involved have little or no experience around Ascot. I seem to recall that another forum member was a fan of Geoff Oldroyd whose...

    Antepost treble

    Coming from Preston I would share your view on PNE getting relegated however if Sheffield Wednesday drop out of the league or have points deducted the price doesn't look as attractive.

    The 2025 Shergar Cup

    I think the Shergar Cup is worth watching for future races of runners ridden by jockeys who are inexperienced around Ascot. In 2022 in the two mile race I was going to back Island Brave but was put off by its rider Jose-Luis Martinez who had no experience at the course. It was given a shocking...
