Evening all,
Delighted to be posting here for the first time after several years of lurking.
Also delighted that the jumping season is getting into its stride… though gutted I won’t be at Cheltenham for the Paddy Power in a few weeks’ time.
Look forward to chatting soon…

Hi
Im Croitear and have been very impressed the feel of the site so far. Im particularly keen on Nation Hunt Racing, especially Irish, but have fairly gotten into this summer’s flat campaign also.
I do have a punt from time to time but genuinely love the sport and the analysis of it. Cant wait to see how the higher echelons of the jumping campaign unfolds this seasonpunters horse – Fisher Bridge
class horse – Sizing Europe
dark horse – China Rock

Hi from a Newbie from the U.S., invited here by a member. I’m not sure what name she goes by but it may have something to do with foxes.
I know very little, almost nothing in fact, about horse racing anywhere other than in the States. But I do like to learn about new things and I love horses. My brother is currently working at Calumet Farms in Lexington and has worked for most of the major farms in Kentucky through the years and he’s a walking encyclopedia on horses and everything pertaining to horses. My last visit to him was the year Barbaro won The Kentucky Derby. He also took us on an "Insiders" tour of the Farm. It was wonderful.
So, it will take me a while to learn how to navigate this site and I’m sure I’ll make mistakes but you seem like a friendly bunch (lot?) so I hope you’ll be patient.Hello everybody!
First of all, I just would like to apologize for the mistakes and misspellings I could do. I’m not an english native speaker and the quality of my language is not perfect!
That’s my first post on Theracingforum. I used to read you for a while, and I have decided to sign up on this interesting site.
Being interested in french and american horseracing since my childhood (trotting, flat, fences, hurdles), I have recently discovered, through a six-month period in UK, the impressive english and irish jumps races and some fabulous horses like KAUTO STAR, DENMAN, MASTER MINDED.
I am more than willing to learn more about it, and I’m looking forward to speak with you all!See you later.

hey..I’m Sarah
I’m 20. I’ve only just got into horse racing really but I’ve always been into horses for as long as I can remember, and go riding. I wouldn’t say I was a big gamblers but then I fear losing money the one time I did bet on a horse I won £2 Wish I’d put more on it now! I enjoy "intelligent discussion" (as long as you look past my vast typos!) I hope to be posting a lot more So hey everyone!‘Morning, Sarah. Enjoy TRF!
