Thanks, I looked on the RVC website. I didn't really like the look of what they were doing with one horse, looked as if they were experimenting.

Sorry DO but Hewett has won more grand slams than every British player in history put together and he's only 26. He won numerous titles this year and finished ranked number 1 in the world. If that had been Murray, he'd have won in a landslide. With Gordon Reid, his doubles partner, previously...

Alfie was robbed. Man United fans won that for Earps, of which I am lifelong one, although hate current manager and want him gone, but I voted for Alfie. Only saving grace was IT not in first 3 either.

This is horse related but thought would put here rather than on the topics thread: does anyone have contact details/know anyone connected with the 'blood bank' based near Buckingham please? I have numbers/emails but they are not answering , nor my vet who is very well known in the world, the...

The value of your state pension is being taken as all taxable in this calculation. You will only be eligible under this calculation for tax not to be charged on £3979 ie your 'personal allowance' is now only £3979 instead of £12570. So paying/being charged tax against the difference of £8590.00...

Only saw the interview on the FB page as out and didn't see race. Bless all of them. Heartbroken for them all. I'd just come back from our yard where one waiting for the vet to arrive and be PTS and couldn't stop crying and then saw that :(

It's not Sports Personality of the Year Who's Watched By the Most People Award. Nor what someone has done over the last 30 years. Earps watched by large crowds equivalent to RA at the Euros and the World Cup. Give Dettori a life time achievement award if they want, but THIS last year Hewett...

Alfie Hewett should get this if there is any justice. Been a star all year not just a couple of times, winner of major titles again, and finishes the year ranked number 1 in the world. How IT is nominated I have no clue. Is Clare Balding on the committee? Earps, as good as she is, a sympathy...

Racing is supposed to be a competition between horses not trainers. Potentially really unfair on owners who may have one horse with a trainer who has mutiple horses with another owner who are more highly rated. And if they're going to do it over jumps surely have to apply to the flat as well?

I'm a huge hate Christmas time of year and usually turn radio off/over if Christmas songs come on except for Springsteen Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town ( live version recorded in the summer of 1975 at a college campus ) 'cos you can hear the joy in his voice singing it,and Wham. I know but it's...

If her surname wasn't Nicholls she wouldn't have been nominated but my experience over the years of those awards are they are a closed shop. Very often the best doesn't win. Bit of if your face fits and all that. At Sandown today, Chamberlin hanging round the pre parade...only one horse came...

Someone was 'having a go' at Nico/Jonbon on the walk in about not winning by much/so called superstar, along those lines, Nico said 'come and see him on another day not on that ground'. I thought that was very restrained.. I personally , if saying anything, would have said go forth and multiply...

One of my favourite, if not the favourite race days of the year. The extra races adding to the expectation. Agree possibly the Whitbread, as will always be in my mind, but a great day still at I think one of the best racecourses. Great viewing and space to get up close and personal as it were...

Danedream put down.

Absolutely fabulous ,Paisley was getting there. To say Tom Bellamy was disappointed is understatement of the month! The 'team' were delighted, he was gutted.

Jeriko Du Reponet - very, very impressive. If haven't seen the race worth watching for Nico doing his Jamie Spencer impression, never mind the horse.

Oppenheimer way too long and not that engrossng. If I had been at home I would have turned it off . Wished I'd gone to see KOTFM though as the trailer looked really good.

Not in the Breeding Stock sale?

NDB walked past me at the end of the day and I heard him say to someone on phone 'Shish had been in strop all day'. Don't think it helped that he was away from the others just before they started to trot in and I know he had caught them up, but could almost see that happening. Also interesting...

Real shame he didn't get to have a retirement. All thoughts with everyone connected to him.
