My usual, somewhat A-Typical response to Edgt's original post, admittedly whilst having a chuckle, after half a dozen glasses of Baileys, (paid 23 quid in Tesco's, after thinking I was paying 13 quid, but didn't have a 'club card', whatever that is, where's Ian when you need him), was going to be the following......
So the same owner pulled Spillane's Tower out of the King George this season, or didn't have him entered in the first place, (one of the two), before he ran Fact To File close in the John Durkan.
He then supplemented Spillane's for the King George, at a much higher cost, after some noteworthy shite was spouted, by some serial offenders like me, before Spillane's could only actually finish fifth in the KG anyway.
Hence, I was going to gently question if we are giving the owner too much kudos in the original post for this masterplan, admittedly based on my one example, Edgt.
But then, after all, it is JP we are talking about.
A man of mystery, you might say.
No doubt a very intelligent man aswell.
Only god knows, I reckon.
According to JP and plenty of others, he works in mysterious ways.
