Yes, and all very sad if confirmed. There’s an old saying, Grass, “one out, one in”. You’d love it back here, now the site owner has sorted out the functionality of the boards. It looks much better.

I actually watched the first two episodes of this at the London Film Festival last year. Fantastic cinema experience, as you can imagine, and the special treat is that the cast and crew come on stage and take questions from the compère.

I don’t mind the self-service tills, but I find there’s a difference between the functionality of the best - M&S and Waitrose - and the more shite versions. Sainsbury’s cannot cope with loose veg, but everything else is fine. I’m not for shopping in Aldi or Lidl, as that has never ended well in...

Nice one, Benn. I think we all will be now. Tanlic loved that horse.

Like many, I had a few run ins with the old rogue. But I totally respected his knowledge and love for racing. I really enjoyed Tanlic’s insight into the old days - he was a proper “I was there” historian. Great stories about Arkle, and he was convinced that Flyingbolt would never have beaten...

The 14 horse at Newcastle wins at 200/1. I mean, clearly, I had written his chances off. 😡

I’ll be looking at the higher-drawn horses in the sprints at Newcastle. I see the 15 horse won the first at 9/2. We’re talking 75p ew bets today.

I think we fell in love with Dawn Run for a few reasons, and not all racing-related: a. The Peter O’Sullevan GC commentary; b. Jonjo’s battle with cancer; c. She died in her very next race. But, sod it, I’ve just a magnificent reminder of the beauty and absolute phwooooarness of Raquel Welch...

What a thoroughly entertaining article, and definitely a pointer to future GNs: https://www.racingpost.com/news/the-front-runner/how-to-ride-the-winner-of-the-new-style-grand-national-patrick-mullins-and-nick-rockett-prove-patience-now-pays-off-aGnvU9s7Gaz8/

Delighted that Tanlic was proved right - Royale Pagaille PU. I did get first and third, though (and the 8th-about the 20th!).

Royale Pagaille.

I don’t knock him because he’s a posh boy, but I know some who do. I just think something has gone wrong with CH (I don’t think he was coming there to win yesterday), but we won’t know that conclusively until Nico lets someone else ride the horse. As it is, there’s a big risk that CH’s next...

I think until we see CH ridden by someone other than Nico, the jury is still out regarding the continued greatness of the horse. And those riding arrangements are not going to change until Nico steps aside himself. That’s exactly what he should do; after all, he was the beneficiary after Barry...

Like others, I love this horse. That 2022 Supreme was probably the greatest single performance I have seen over hurdles. But I’ve backed against him in his last two races in the forecast markets. There’s the betting angle.

NJH said that CH couldn’t make all over 2.5miles against a distance specialist like Lossiemouth; that’s fair enough. But maybe CH would benefit with a different pair of hands to steer him now.

Please stay on, Tanlic. We’re not ready to miss you.

Trump is also absolutely capable of bystanding a genocide. He hasn’t stopped the Israel-Hamas war, has he. Ok, so you’re ok with the constitutional coup, as long as you can use the false equivalence of a war in the Middle East?

I don’t think she would have tried to tear up the constitution though. If you voted for Trump, this is the risk you had to accommodate. The bloke is dangerous.

My long list grows every day. He was running into a place at Cheltenham - at the very least - when he was brought down.

Yes, but those trends were a big thing up until 2005.
