To focus your mind from food to horse racing Ian :) I know it won't. What do you think to doing this? From now until November 1st post any amount of selections per day to win, each bet using £10 win on each horse. Whoever has least money on November 1st donates £100 to the forum? This is for...

Been thinking about this a few days since Denis Law passed, re sporting ones. How do we define one? If you are into one sport or two you may have a few, who people outside those sports won't know, just because you know that sport. My favourite racing jockey heroes are Lester and Steve Cauthen, I...

By public demand you do need to get back on here, especially with Cheltenham build up. Please post if you agree anyone. It is not same without him

Ok, this is a thread about getting worried about your health but being scared about doing something about it due to the current state of the NHS, and basically being a cowardly man re health and addressing it. In about 1998 I worked with a guy called Frank in my manual labour days. I was in my...

I will throw this out there, Just looking at stables that have short priced ones shortening from larger priced ones each day, mainly to favouritism. It is a simple system I have been looking at. Go on ATR site, note the best market movers and note the top 3 market movers by %. Make a note of...

I think this is first time I started this thread. I am looking forward to seeing many posts, two members in particular who I have loads of respect for who I would love to see posting. Grasshopper and Granger, two absolute legendary posters on this forum. Boy have we had some great threads on...

I know it is hard keeping interest these days in racing forums, but... I am seeing stuff posted here that reminds me of 20 years since where someone introduces themselves to a forum and then commences to post probably a new thread each day with their selections on. On past experience these are...

I think a lot of you will know what this is like. A good while ago I found out I was the youngest on here:):). Obviously not, but I was surprised at the age of some members who I seem to have know for many years now. I am 68 now so will be an old f&ck to some and a young f^ck to others. I always...

I read much stuff on here about this over the years. My good pal DO often talks about non triers etc. Something as a numbers man I never studied much. As said, I never normally bothered about the non trier stuff with just being a numbers man tbh. But going in to body language, which we can all...

This might sound really silly but I have had this on my mind a bit. I haven't researched it so if it sounds daft then so be it. When watching races in heavy ground, or really soft, the winner, if in front all the way, is not caked in mud. So surely a horse held up caked in mud has carried more...

Hi to all TH posters, I haven't posted for ages, health issues. Had many good times on here then made a real bad mistake of judgement. Regrets which I have made before. I hope some can forgive what happened with Roger who I know is so missed. I messed up bad. Hope you are all ok out there. The...

The first time I ever went to a racecourse after watching racing for about 10 years was to York with a work mate in I think 1984, Thursday of the Ebor meeting. After 10 years of backing horses, and only really seeing races on the TV at weekends or special mid week stuff, because betting shops...

I've personally never felt or have seen this country in a such a mess. I hate the tories since I lived through the miners strike on a miners estate in the 80s. I feel though that even that oppression was preferable to the utter incompetence of this, probably the worst government ever. I doubt...

I am talking about betting on horses alone and having a bad spell, and thinking, can't do this any more. For me it must be 100s through the last 40 years. I often wonder how reslilient backers of horses are, they must be very resilient to start again after thinking .. f**k this. Or is it just...

Thought I would carry this from the what are you betting thread. Think it is worth a chat about. I know you love your ante post Euro, as do many on here, but it is so risky compared to actually looking at racing each day and knowing the conditions on the day and the oppo surely? I admit I have...

Oh dear chap. He forgot to look over his left shoulder as well as the right one in the 8.00 Chelmsford:blink:

Just listening to LBC, seems like lots of protests are planned from this Animal Rising group

Nicky Henderson has said his Champion Hurdle winner Constitution Hill will have a flat campaign after Aintree. Nicky said, "he is that good, we have to take in the Chester Cup, he is so well handicapped" A tilt at the Ascot Gold Cup is also not being ruled out.

Sadly at the moment my girl cat is not well. She has hyperthyroidism, which basically means medicating just to reduce further decline, but at same time that medication can cause kidney problems. She is now about 17. We got her when she was about 5, she had never seen another cat, hated the...
