    Nice double at Donny Darren :yahoo:
    Didn’t see Flemcara’s race but Annie Mc was something else back amongst the mares. :good: she just flew the last 3 fences home and nobody was going to catch her.
    Have to thank you as when Young Wolf folded and dropped back I had a tenner on her at 3/1 Win and put her in double with The Glancing Queen at Newbury 3.15. :good: Fingers crossed.
    Anyway she saved the day for me thank you.

    Good Luck with your bets today. Having to resort to radio streams to catch today’s racing – reminds me of my misspent youth “living” at the local bookies. :wacko:

    Just cheered on Monkfish at Leopardstown for my TTF.

    Good Luck with your bets today!

    They say you should never meet your heroes
    I guess that is why Billion never wanted to meet me
    Either that or he realised that I would give him a headache
    I believe he was more your end of the country, I’m sure he posted he was from Colchester or around that area

    Oh really..so just within 12 miles of my doorstep, he must have gone to Newmarket races too what a meet up that could have been.

    At least he didn’t just disappear from the Forum without anyone knowing what happened and will always be fondly remembered. :rose:

    Monkfish is turning into a very nice TTF selection for you Andre and such a faultless TTF round of jumping today.
    Mullins is holding all the Aces for Cheltenham. :good:

    Talking of streaming the racing I remember when they brought out those mini pocket TV’s and taking one to work to watch mid week racing..trouble was the ‘rest room’s’ were in the basement and the mini aerial couldn’t get a signal so I would just end up listening to the commentary with ear plugs in. :wacko:
    How things have changed.

    Wow – over 30K views for the Meydan thread Jac!! Whoever would have thought….. I wonder how many times we’ve said that in 2020 :wacko:

    Yes, Monkfish is a rising star for sure and Willie M. has a more then enough aces for Cheltenham!

    I see Al Boum Photo is running on Thursday, with just four rivals in his usual stepping stone to the Gold Cup. He’s on my shortlist as a transfer in for the TTF.

    A shame that Cheltenham got called off on Friday.

    Stay Safe Everyone!!

    Big thank your to all for making it possible.

    Look out for Meydan Thurdays 2021 on January 1st.. :mail: and yes Nick looking forward to those early decs that you post up for us..then it will soon be time to sort our a stables for the Godolphin Fantasy League and this year I think it will be difficult as all the usual suspects have retired to stud.

    Will start a small compy to follow how we are all getting on and update it every week as we move towards the Dubai World Cup in March. Can’t wait..thinking caps on. :good:

    Al Boum Photo running on Friday Andre thank goodness he wasn’t down to run at Cheltenham, he will be a great swop for you later in the new year and could secure you a place at the top of th Leaderboard once more..well done you are doing so well with your choices. :good:
    Hope all the Saturday racing goes ahead. :bye:

    🎉🎊Happy New Year🎊🎉 Nick, Andre, Graham, Nathan, Tonge, Sam, Green, Final Furlong and everyone and a special wish for John Gooch to return to good health and come and play in our Fantasy League compy. :rose:
    Jac
    :bye:

    Just one bet for tomorrow ..
    Been watching this 2yo for a while -interesting breeding …

    3.05 Lingfield
    ALVARINO .. 7/1 WIN

    By first season sire and Breeders Cup Sprint winner Bobby’s Kitten he has been improving with every run. Not quite getting the mile last time when 3rd but back at 7f his breeding and good temperament could see him win this.

    Good luck if your having a dabble later today..Jac

    Unbelievable!!! 30,051views :yahoo:
    In a bloody awful year Jac, this thread has, to me anyway, been the highlight
    on the forum. Some great racing and punting, and a camaraderie that’s helped
    keep us going through this damned virus. Thanks Jac and well done everyone
    that’s been involved, even Hein who I hope is rowing a clear line away from
    this crisis in his boat :good:

    Nice win with Annie Mc Jac and I see Darren has been firing them in again
    at Donny. Well done guys and Monkfish looks a great addition to your TTF
    Andre :good:

    I was looking forward to Cheltenham, so that’s a bit of a blow, but I have got
    on 3 in the ante post betting at Musselburgh on the 1st They all made it through
    the final decs, which is a bloody miracle the way my ante post bets have been
    going. They are (all in ante post competition thread)

    1.20 Elf De Re 12/1 best price now 15/2

    1.55 Raymond 9/1 best price now 13/2

    3.05 Cool Mix 10/1 best price 6/1

    So I’m ahead of the market with them all, all they’ve gotta do is win now B-)

    Good luck everyone (as mentioned in Jac’s last post) it’s going to be a quiet
    New Year, but all the very best, and stay safe :good:
