Brings back painful memories reading about Alverton. I backed it for the Gold Cup but thought it was too young to be aimed at the National and consequently did not back it. The race has been tarnished for me ever since. I seem to recall that Peter Easterby was quizzed about the horses...

Tom Symonds had two runners today: Garlic sorry Gaelic Saint 2nd at 50/1 and Kalista Love won at 7/1. Stable couldn't be in better form.

NAVAJO INDY 10/1 Rare runner at Haydock for Tom Symonds whose stable is in form. Has run 12 times and yet to finish outside the first four places. Has run twice in November winning both starts. Big step up in trip but promises to stay 3 miles plus.

Better off in an ISA. I seem to recall that Sunderland were 1/10 before a ball was kicked in the Premiership and look how that's faring.

Not an original but edited lyrics from a song I have on my playlist that is rather appropriate for a member on this forum: Ian is a bad idea Ian is a problem child I fear Ian's got an awful affliction Ian is as cold as it gets out here. Ian's got a brilliant mind It's giving him really big...

Watched the race on my phone whilst walking the dog. I knew the horse had to be held up but good god the jockey gave it a lot to do there. Ah well back to the Cheltenham races!!!!

Apologies he rides four today.

My man Monsieur Meuniier wins on his only other ride - now for the double fingers crossed 🤞

100/30 available which is a fair price. If you watch back his last two runs at Auteuil it has come from another parish to claim second. The problem is it will probably be delivered from the same parish today but if Gabin Meunier keeps his 'merde' together it should win.

Joe Tizzard who won with Eldorado Allen on Friday sidestepped Cheltenham yesterday but was successful with his only runner Blacksam Senorita at Uttoxeter (still can't believe I got 9/2 about it in a five horse race). Today he sends two to Cheltenham, Alexei in the Greatwood but the ground is...

Was impressed with Iliva Des Obeaux today in the last race. Same Owner /Trainer combination have Jaguar Des Obeaux in the 12:40 race tomorrow. Should win.

As Slim would say:

I see they are not risking Riskintheground in this ground!!!

With such a warm welcome from the forum he is bound to come back. One of the reasons I do not frequent bookies shops anymore as they are littered with oddballs.

Glad to see you've finally come around to one of my suggestions on this forum Ian. On the 17th May I wrote: James Owen who did me a favour yesterday with Delicacy sends the one runner to Thirsk today: HALLELUJAH U in the 1m 4f handicap 3:20 On its last start a running on 4th but only 3 lengths...

A horse that went into my tracker was: HORNICA (Ben Pauling) Finished 7th of 13 behind Jackie Hobbs on its first start over hurdles at Newbury on Thursday dropped out last but made headway and could have placed with a stronger ride (even the commentator pointed out that it was 'patiently...

Didn't back a winner today but ahead on the day due to Bosphorus Rose ew @ 28/1, Mahons Glory ew @ 28/1 and Miss Dolly Rocker ew @ 40/1 all placed.

Very Well done. Backed Mahons Glory ew myself @ 28/1 so in profit

As a fellow Preston fan I would never ever bet on one of their games - they are so unpredictable!!!

When your dark horse wins the first race on the opening day of the competiton. Only one way from here and that's downhill!!!
