    Rendlesham Hurdle 2026

    Any opinions on how good this favourite Kabral is people? I don't think it'll be a one horse race myself with some getting a weight concession. My contention is one of the handicappers yet to try graded company, might step up again and improve. Of those we have Henri The Second, French Ship...

    Tuesday December 30th

    I've a few fancies. I had a day off yesterday, so feeling refreshed and ready for war today. Edit. Most of these are each way prices. Haydock 12.35 Maura Jeanne was raised 3lb for the last day when second, which looks fair enough. She should stay the trip all day long, and in truth I don't...

    Welsh National Day, and another blog post!

    Three winners for the blogski yesterday. I wish I'd had one or two more, but at least I didn't disgrace myself. Starting off with the big one.today, the Welsh National. GIT MAKER'S tendency to race unfluently, hitting the odd one would be a concern for him. The positives are if you take out...

    Boxing Day fancies

    Merry Christmas everyone. I've a few horses for Boxing Day. I've not seen prices yet, but I'll stick these in a win Goliath for fun nearer the time. I don't think these horses will shorten because I've mentioned them on here, in fact in anything, bookmakers will drift them out in the betting...

    Ante Post jumps discussion thread 2025/26

    I think we need one of these threads. I saw Danny mentioned another race at Cheltenham this weekend, and there's forum members on here, (I'm not one 🤣), who've really shown their worth over time for identifying horses before raceday. While the biggest races will have individual threads...

    PPE 'contracts'

    Quite sickening isn't it. This ITV documentary tonight really reinforces it. While our relatives were dying, the Tory powers that be were swarming and overflowing with dodgy business deals selling PPE from central government and tax payers money, lining the pockets of the Tory aristocracy in...

    Irish Cambridgeshire on Saturday

    I was having a look at this race and just wondering why bookmakers aren't pricing up it ante post yet? Anyone have any ideas when they will? Also, can anyone say when confirmations and final declarations will be? Ta.

    Dearie me

    If anyone ever thinks they've suffered an injustice of any kind in this life, whatever the nature of it, just take a look at this bloke, who's just served nearly 40 years for something he didn't do. Then understand how lucky we are not to be him, also why on balance, it's good we don't have the...

    Dante meeting 2025

    I'm looking forward to hearing what people think about the races this week. I've watched Trilby in his most recent races, and he's entered in the five furlong handicap on Thursday. He was really unlucky first time out at Doncaster, where he just never had a chance to get going. Next time out he...

    It's me!

    I think Marb needed a rebrand, so that's what I've done. I hope you'll all support me on this change of name and identity. There's no turning back. 🤣 Regards The Fortune Teller.

    Smart Meters

    Has anyone else been bamboozled in to getting one of these? They are not so smart after all, are they? They don't work, don't update when you top up online, and are generally utterly crap. Energy companies! Can we all agree on them? I'm about to attempt to type in a 20 digit number in a...

    Why does success in the modern world come at such a price?

    Whether it's a footballer jealous of another player, who then goes out to foul or injure that player, or a rival company or organisation trying to sabotage you, with say another advertiser, just how much bad feeling and unfriendly intentions is there in this world we inhabit in 2025? Sorry if...
