Blackbeard to conquer the World

[mickeyjp]

I’ll see if I can wrench the title back. Love this meeting. Looking at the fields not as strong line ups as usual in the big races so in theory, should be slightly less difficult to find winners. One can hope that’s the case but I doubt it.

[BigG]

Many thanks to you pair, you’re a couple of stars

[Euroalien]

Thanks as always to Raymo and Mrs. Raymo for running this competition on for us – it’s much appreciated!

[Triptych]

Great stuff Raymo and Mrs Raymo…can’t wait for it all to kick off on Tuesday – 5 Gloroius Days.
Thank you.
Jac

Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

[mickeyjp]

Thanks Mr and Mrs r. You make a happy man very old or something like that. Study more for this meeting than any other. The most beautiful Racecourse anywhere in the world IMHO. My sister stayed not far from it. Great excuse to go visit her.🤣
