EOG has sadly passed away https://www.theirishfield.ie/racing/news/edward-ogrady-passes-away-878725

The brutal reality of the life of a jumps jockey. Michael O'Sullivan has sadly died after failing to recover. An unbelievable talent with so much ahead of him to achieve and in a young career, so much accomplished. Lost for words on this one

Energumene v Jonbon Saturday seems likely. I always like to have a 2 mile chaser as my favorite horse in training. Energumene currently tops this list for me. Turning 11 he will need to be a special horse.

Let's not forget these The 26th brings a really promising Aintree clash https://www.irishracing.com/racecards/Thu-26th-Dec-2024/Aintree/1305 And a very promising wpm maiden runner in the first at leop. They won this race with a future supreme winner recently.

Have a great time all and enjoy We do have some proper clashes over the festive period to help - magical stuff I wish great health and happiness to you all and a great 2025 to boot

What are you lot making of this? I think overall it's good to see innovation with regards to coverage. Racing TV have gone a bit overboard with it for every race imo. Interested to hear some forumites thoughts on the accuracy/use/enjoyment of it.

I love a 2m chaser Energumene back with a win. Probably my current favorite horse in training. Jonbon very professional yesterday Beautiful pic of Nicky and Jonbon yesterday also

RP posted this and it grabbed some attention. What are your thoughts I'll go with my provisional five 1. Hurricane Fly 2. Gallopin Des Champs 3. Allaho 4. Vautour 5. Faugheen I'll need to think more on it but that was a quick draft

Lossiemouth looked very good today at Fairyhouse

There is only one UK novice chaser of interest to me currently - Caldwell Potter Down Memory Lane was a nice + to his backers this weekend Of the Irish, Slade Steel disappointed at the weekend Plans for Ballyburn seem up in the air but I'd still guess he goes chasing

Today, I got a notice that my betfair account was suspended owing to safer gambling concerns I haven't bet on it in months for one and secondly, I don't fit any classification of problem gambler (especially in a flat season) Anyone else encountered this

Hi I have the horse racing part of the forum saved as my bookmark but when i click on it, it always delivers the below error

Not sure how much activity we will get here but we should track some of these UK novices. I haven't seen a really exciting chaser yet but two novice hurdlers have my attention Jeriko Du Reponet - some judges are more impressed than me but respected Captain Teague - think he will need 3m to...

Decent card on Sunday without being spectacular https://www.hri-ras.ie/entries/Microsoft_Word__2023_ONOR076.pdf?status=Declarations Mighty Potter in the Powers, if you can forgive him

So, quick and easy It's very simple to rattle off 20 horses you loved over the last 20 to 30 years but currently active horses a bit tougher Interested to see who people pick I'd suggest pick 3 max with no flat allowed as that's for the summer For me 1. Allaho 2. Mighty Potter 3. Marine...

In essence the posting of the Champion Hurdle thread does dominate the forum and Euro's post made me think as to what race i'd pick to see if I could only pick one

To me Ruby Walsh This year particularly I think he has shown what is needed in explaining a topic so the layman understands Some of his jockey analysis is fascinating. Today's hurdle race at Limerick was fantastic viewing Lydia is a fine host, Jane Mangan is a bit like a sulky child who...

A post borne of no racing today but also as time has passed and Gordon has returned from his annus horriblus He is having an amazing season and trains some of my very favourite young horses. He has returned more mature and controlled in how he speaks to media. To me he campaigns his horses...
