    Spoke to DL about an hour ago and it`s fair to say he was delighted for the new syndicate and the horse fairly hosed up :bounce:

    What an evening! DL kindly allowed my son & I to join the party (I’m a  Gloaming syndicate member but the "Silver" syndicate couldn’t use up the ticket allocation). Some of us certainly availed ourselves of the 44s on the Tote:biggrin: . Hope others did to.

    A big thank you to DL for his organisation of the syndicates. In less than a year, we have been in the Winners Enclosure 3 times out of 18 runs, visited countless courses, thrilled to having a runner at Cheltenham, enjoyed a number of excellent stable visits, made lots of new acquaintances, etc.

    For those of you who have been wavering about signing up – what are you waiting for? Enjoy your favourite sport from the inside.

    Wonderful training performance tonight by the way. Off the course for a year and with ground not ideal. John & Becky are a lovely couple and I am sure will go places in the coming years. Well done, DL, for finding them.

    I hope Rich gets his voice back in time for Leicester on Sunday! My arms are aching from helping to carry the 48 cans of Grolsch back to the horsebox which, sadly, go to the stable lads but at least we got to drink champagne.:cheesy:

    Just got home and now I can get this coat hanger out of my mouth :biggrin:

    It was a truly great evening and thank you to all the people who have posted here, phoned me and text messaged me after the result to give your best wishes, as it is very much appreciated by myself and the syndicate members.  I’m just glad to be part of such a great bunch of people/owners.

    I daredn’t post too much now as I’m still buzzing and need a few more glasses of plonk to calm me down.

    I would like to add my congratulations to all concerned.<br>Having been involved with the Amelia syndicate I understand how much time and effort has been put in by the syndicate organisers to make things run smoothly for the syndicate members.<br>It’s great to have a winner, but a 25/1 winner must be even better. I hope everyone had a great day.

    Well done to all involved. I ran into John at Newbury on Tuesday and he seemed enthusiastic about her chances ~ I’m just kicking myself for forgetting about it until 8:42 last night!! I am genuinely thrilled for Daylight and the Network Racing team.

    On a slightly worrying note,  I heard that she was dismounted pretty quickly after the line and hope that she comes home safe and sound.

    I would just like to add my congratulations to all the syndicate members. Looks like a cracking yard and a lovely couple who run it. (Superb bacon butties)!!

    Hey Daylight, Is that the horse that wasn’t trying on the gallops when all the others were sweating up?

    Looks like a very bright future for the yard, good luck to Moon Glow today, hope she can make it two wins on the bounce.

    Regards

    Rory,<br>Thanks for phoning & sorry we got cut-off again but Wales is not a friendly mobile phone area I’ve found out!

    She’s came back sound this morning, she’s eat up normally. She was dismounted as she has had previous history of going lame after her races as a 2yo and she looked to be soar immediately after the race also in the winners enclosure but she seemed to walk it off back to the stables but it was a bit concerning considering her 2yo days, but most importantly she’s okay today and showing no real effects from last nights race.

    Couldn’t be happier and I’m as thrilled for John & Becky, as they deserve all the praise for yet another great training performance, bare in mind her previous history as a 2yo & the year lay off!
