I bet Hallo Dandy at 20/1 while in my last year at Warwick uni, but I didn't put many people onto it as I frankly thought most of the students were Tory arses and I didn't want to put (even more) money in their pockets.

The key to the horse was Good ground - it was Soft the previous year.

Anyway, I digress.

"Hate" is a strong word to apply to an animal, it's usually, the actions of the humans connected with them that makes one not a fan, but I've thought of an exception....

The following year Last Suspect coming from way back to win robbed me of not only a 20/1 win only secondary bet on Mr Snugfit, but the tricast with Greasepaint and Corbiere (the fourth one in the combo being West Tip, who I'd backed to "cop the lot" - I had a full-time job by then - at 20/1 who was cantering when he fell).

I was just getting over the flu and had a *****ing relapse!

Last Suspect - that's my nomination - tail-swishing beast, couldn't stand him!

[QUOTE="Ian_Davies, post: 2690220, member: 66646"] I bet Hallo Dandy at 20/1 while in my last year at Warwick uni, but I didn't put many people onto it as I frankly thought most of the students were Tory arses and I didn't want to put (even more) money in their pockets.
