WD Nathan, you stuck with him while I deserted.
Awful news regards Envoi Allen. As if De Bromhead hasn’t been through enough.
March 13, 2026 at 16:35 #1759581Good to see you on Ben , how’s life been treating you
March 13, 2026 at 16:37 #1759583I guess it’s back to Chepstow for Haiti Couleurs…..
March 13, 2026 at 16:37 #1759585Jesus the person on the BBC live text has had a nightmare.
Jukebox Man, having looked well placed until the penultimate fence, ultimately finished eighth.
A bit Spursy?
This 5 mins after reporting Envoi’s death in the same live text.
I thought it was poor taste even without that context. Harry and the horse shouldn’t be mocked like that.
March 13, 2026 at 16:37 #1759586Hi Ben, hope you’re enjoying life wherever you are.
March 13, 2026 at 16:38 #1759587He can still win some graded races in heavy , next season will be Aintree though , prob is will the ground be to fast
March 13, 2026 at 16:39 #1759588Cheers HDLG and green, wonderful thankyou, married to an amazing woman now and living in London, we’ve actually just bought a holiday home on Lake Como! And currently doing training to become a Psychotherapist! How are things on your end?
March 13, 2026 at 16:41 #1759593Thoughts with Envoi’s connections, especially his groom.
GW has clocked a very fast final time of 6m 39.02s (fast by 10.98s) – to compare, Long Run’s course record is 6m 29.70s.
The ground is probably between good and good to soft after the rain burst likely making it a bit loose on top.
March 13, 2026 at 16:44 #1759596Not as good as yours Ben by the sounds of it , I’m awaiting a mauling as I spent the winter saying Gaelic couldn’t win , glad life’s shining on you
March 13, 2026 at 16:49 #1759598Cheers pal, if it makes you feel any better I bet on Gaelic Warrior twice, once when he lost that original Cheltenham handicap hurdle and the second time I had an ante-post bet on him 2024 Stayers hurdle! That’s racing isnt it! Chuffed for Nathan and the winners though!
March 13, 2026 at 16:51 #1759601I’ve had a cracking week antepost so have no right to complain , do you still have a bet
March 13, 2026 at 16:54 #1759603I don’t mate which is for the better! Happy to hear you’ve had a blinder though, put the winnings into next years ante post haul!
March 13, 2026 at 16:57 #1759606That’s guaranteed to lose it , I’ll have a nice lunch and buy the stepdaughter something …. I say that knowing I’m already looking at 2027 and have 6 in the national , good luck with the training
March 13, 2026 at 17:03 #1759613Very decisive, could have been called a long way out; still only 8, seems to have been around forevr. And took in all the top races this year, all hard ones (except for today).
March 13, 2026 at 17:04 #1759614Good to hear you are enjoying life, Ben. Don’t blame you for packing in the betting!
March 13, 2026 at 17:06 #1759618We are all to thick to do likewise
March 13, 2026 at 17:16 #1759624I need to give it up one bloody winner

The more I know the less I understand.
