    serious incident at kempton

    They were reporting possible spinal injuries but you don't know if they're just guessing or that's an official line. I've read that Crowley has a broken nose but Tylicki is in a worse state. He went via air ambulance too. Some people had reposted the video on Twitter. I'd not seen any news all...

    Hell Or High Water - Great modern day western type film, brothers set out to rob a branch of banks they hold responsible for their mothers financial problems and need money to keep her estate as she's passed away and they've found oil on her land. Jeff Bridges is excellent, the film builds...

    Doncaster meeting.

    £26 entry today into the Tattersalls for an average midweek meeting that didn't even have a group race. I think that's scandalous and I've tweeted Donny Races to tell them. It was absolutely dead today but at £26 is it any bloody wonder. If I didn't have a Go Racing In Yorkshire pass there is no...

    York Ebor Meeting; (a proper good meeting :))

    It's over expensive when compared to the excellent Dante meeting earlier in the year. £32 yesterday for a grandstand/paddock ticket and as you say only a 6 race card. I think it's about £10 too expensive in comparison to the Dante meeting. Good luck finding a bookie offering 1/4 odds a place...

    Jason Bourne - sadly a little bit Jason Statham, all action, little plot and couldn't care less whether the characters get killed or not. Doesn't really offer much to the whole Bourne series. Suicide Squad - starts off quite well, the back stories are useful but then we're introduced to Cara...

    I haven't watched it yet but based on this review I bought it about a week ago and I'm looking forward to eventually watching it, probably this weekend.

    Euro 2016 betting thread

    Haven't seen him mentioned yet but I like the look of Marc Janko each way for top goalscorer at a general 50-1 with most firms. (Just noticed he's also tipped on Oddschecker) He's 26 from 51 in internationals and got plenty for FC Basel this season. He got 7 in qualifying and along with Alaba...

    I liked Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction but he seems to just keep making the same films time and time again. I know he uses the same actors most of the time but his films feel like a regurgitation and are made to create controversy by the amount of times you can say f**k or ni**er. I watched the...

    Dante Meeting.

    Which way did you travel there? We went M1 then A64 but set off fairly early and got parked up near the Holiday Inn, just up from the 10f start. I always avoid going into York or to the racecourse parking, has taken me over an hour to get out before. There is a pub called the Fox and Roman...

    Dante Meeting.

    I'm not sure if they showed it on Channel 4 yesterday but Midterm was wearing some sort of protective plastic looking shoes on his front feet in the pre parade ring. He was very coltish in the pre parade so they took him off into a box to calm him down and get him saddled. I've never seen that...

    Dante Meeting.

    I walked over the course from the 10f pole and then again just past the winning line and it was still quite firm underfoot despite the slight rainfall. As we walked over to the course from where the Holiday Inn is and where the jockeys park we noticed the ground in the middle of the course (not...

    Job Application - How would you answer

    I think any question around GCSE's is quite pointless really, what you do at 15 barely has any reflection on where you might be at 30/40/50 etc. I got a terrible grade in Maths (E) but had issues with the teacher who refused to help with coursework (which he was supposed to be doing) and said I...

    Who's the worst drivers ?

    Come and drive around Bradford for a day, you might change your mind. I said Asian Pakistani rather than just Asian as that would have been too broad. Even the AP staff I work with complain about their own, especially the impact on insurance prices and certain specific areas of Bradford (Leeds...

    Who's the worst drivers ?

    In no particular order: Pensioners Women Asian Pakistanis If you should get a combination of 2 of the above or god help you, all 3 then you're in trouble. Try driving around Bradford for a few hours and you'll soon see what I mean. Car insurance is sky high if you have a BD postcode, so many...

    Just got back from Dawn Of Justice - Batman v Superman, pretty average to be honest. Lots of action and fight scenes but not much depth story wise and doesn't really add much to what we already know but sets up a whole host of DC Justice League films to rival the Avengers from Marvel. The plot...

    What are you watching

    Just finished Season 1 of True Detective and enjoyed it, loved the way it flitted between past and modern day for the first few episodes and then took you forward from modern day to track the killer. I thought Matthew McConaughey was excellent, not really my favourite actor but he was great in...

    Sounds interesting, will have to try and catch that somehow. Won't have been on at my local cinema for sure. Reviews on IMDB seem pretty positive too, western meets cannibalism seems to be the main headline. I went to see The Witch on Tuesday night, thought it was garbage and hated the...

    TV coverage

    Every year until now I've watched all the build up, parade ring stuff and interviews on Racing Uk and then switched over to Ch4 for the race only as it was in HD but now Racing UK is in HD I have had no need to watch Ch4's shitty coverage and I've avoided Cunningham, Alice, Tanya and Clare for...
