    deep, dark and mysterious…that’s what I’d like to think. so best not disappoint, and as long as your mask is not made of iron, then I won’t mind :)

    never had a date on the Bronx – perhaps my time will come :D

    Hi Maggs…..I only watched a bit of it and yes, conditions were a joke…I did see the nominations for ‘Ride of the Week’, I reckon Kristy ‘buy a vowel’ Milczarek on Orpsie Boy….maybe I’m biased cause I backed it on Saturday..lol

    I watched the 2.10 at Stratford….thought Dominic Elsworth gave Light Yield a great ride….

    terrific ride Sharpy, he never gave up did he..and he looked well beat.

    I’ve not seen the rides of the week yet, always like those, so will look out tomorrow if I get time, but don’t suppose ATR will be on much here but if Matt is in the booth again then I’ll try to watch…you know I love him to bits… :lol:

    really enjoyed watching the lady riders this winter Milczarek/Turner on the a.w…must be a little bit of history there, 2 women playing a leading role. Chris Catlin been’s great too, hasn’t he?..do you follow that much?

    I’ve picked my 6 for the competition…1/10 I don’t get a winner :x ..lol

    I’ve been looking at the Yankees list trying to figure out who won’t be playing…..I think I best leave that to you :lol:

    Yeah, he’s a string jockey too, models himself on Fallon….Jim Crowley has sorted me out countless times this year….

    So where do you post your selections for tomorrow?

    The starting 25 should be, although there could be 1 or 2 that I might get wrong are:

    – DH – Giambi
    – Outfielders – Matsui, Duncan, Damon, Cabrera, Abreu
    – Infeilders – Arod, Jeter, Cano, Betemit
    – Catchers – Posada, Molina (back-up Catcher)
    – Pitchers – Wang, Veras, Rivera, Ramirez, Pettitte, Ohlendorf, Mussina, Kennedy, Hughes, Hawkins, Farnsworth, Bruney and JOBA, JOBA, JOBA!!! lol

    Everyone except for a few of the pitchers I think I have right…

    oh thanks Sharpy, that concurs with my list :lol: ….except I would have left out Matsui and Wang..lol!!…no really, I’ll keep that and check later see if you got it right. 8)

    Joba,Joba,Joba…shouldn’t that be Ruby,Ruby,Ruby…?…lol

    In the Competitions section – I’m itching to see what you’ve done..being so sharp like you are :D

    What do you mean???? Wang has been our most consistant pitcher for the past 2 years and Matsui is still one of our best clutch hitters…….ahhhhhhhh……Now I see where you’re coming from…..You’re think of leaving out Wang, because he tends to run out of gas during the latter stages of the season, so let him make a later start to the line-up to preserve his energy…..and since Matsui has been suffering from nagging injuries, give him a few months off so he’s fit for the play-offs….GOOD THINKING MAGGS!!!!! :)

    Yes, great song, except where that song was originally about Ruby Walsh, I’m changing the lyrics to Joba… 8)

    I don’t see your selections yet?

    …and it proved very sticky indeed Sharpy, much to my consternation as everyone told me it would dry out…so of course one goes for good ground types…

    anyhow, I know it’s a sore point but just to remind you:-

    60th / -2.43 Ugly Mare
    68th / -4.56 Oh So Sharp

    lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!…..you’ve got your work cut out :lol:
    to spare our blushes from getting a series of duck eggs each, I suggest KS for you and Denman for me Friday.. :oops: :lol:

    when’s the next ST?

    Ok, but knowing our luck, some outsider will probably nick it on the line… :(

    Bumper day tomorrow…..oh yes, and there’s the Bumper race… :)

    Good luck Maggs!!!

    phew…what a day…but we got a winner or two…Inglis was great again..that Master Minded..wow!…could run up a sequence in that race I think….but my best moment of the day was seeing Inglis’s lass Ginni Wright on the t.v., she was so bubbly I love people like that…lots of emotion, a great television moment I thought…and to think she’s had so many health problems with breast cancer, poor girl…a marvellous woman, I wish I was like her.

    Cousin Vinny rocks!!!!!!!!!!!.. :lol:
    I think Ghosty in the competition had 5 or 6 winners…I wonder if he’d give me his number :lol:

    I see you’ve done some of my fancies for tomorrow…
    best of luck with them Sharpy…have you been reading my mind?..lol
