    :yahoo: Lovely 3rd place there Graham .. haven’t watched it but that was a great pick to kick off the day.

    Masked Identity is my poster boy at the moment he’s giving Paddy Power a good kicking for me :good: Jac

    Off to watch My Drogo now if I can bear it..he’s in my TTF Bobby’s comp.. :bye:

    Hello Everyone.

    Graham – I don’t believe Nathan has finished the updates for the Champion of the Competitions yet. Last time I looked I think he still had York and the Breeders Cup comp to go. It will be touch and go as I didn’t do that well in the BC comp. I’d have to check, I think I won it in 2020 so coming anywhere close again would be amazing.

    My Drogo looked impressive – maybe a couple of small mistakes but he should benefit from that nice win/run. He’s a good one in your TTF list Jac. I think I have one running next Thurs. most of my others will be running between Boxing Day and New Years Eve.

    Lovely E/Way there Graham & well done with Masked Identity Jac. Love the bookie bashing! Keep it up.

    Good Luck with your other bets today. I like Midnight Shadow and Wynn House later today at Cheltenham.

    Stay Safe Everyone!

    Thanks Jac and Andre, pleased with Gala’s place. If I hadn’t been running late,
    as usual :whistle: I would have stuck him in my 4PP compy, but only got the
    bet on just before the off.

    Good Luck everyone today, as I posted earlier I’ve got Siruh Du Lac at 20/1 E/W
    and Fusal Raffles at 12s both ante post in the Racing Post Gold Cup. Hope one
    of us can land this one :good:

    Sadly no points gained in the Bonus Races today Graham. Hope your bookie payed out on 4th place in the RP Gold Cup?

    My Drogo looked a good prospect when winning today at Cheltenham and looking forward to where he goes next.

    Still got a couple of runners in the last two races at Wolverhampton for the comps..

    Musicka and Corinthia Knight
    and in the last
    Sands Of Times

    Fingers crossed 🤞 Jac

    Nil points in the comps..but My Drogo saved the day for Bobby’s TTF.
    He’s not in my Tote Stables…shame because I think he runs again New Years Day and he looks like he’s getting the message over the jumps now. :rose: Jac

    Just one for today off in an hour 10 minutes…
    3.15 Chelmsford
    LETHAL ANGEL – 8/1 Best Price- EW

    Ran a decent race here in 5th last time out over 5f.
    The extra furlong could see her in the winners enclosure this time or at least a place. :good: Jac

    Hoofs Happy now under Joanna mason for Mick Easterby as a saver, blinkered first time.
    Have just put up
    Don’t be Robin
    Course winner last time out
    3pm
    And
    Peerless Beauty in the bumper.

    Unlucky Lethal Angeln 4th today, should have guessed Holly would win that one. :wacko:

    Peerless Beauty 2nd in the bumper – not our day today Sam..what did Bob Geldolph sing?

    Having a quick look at Wolverhampton tonight and might be back with a hopeful saver. :good: Jac

    Okay this is my ‘Get out of Jail’ play and I have chosen the 2yo Maiden..

    4.30 Wolverhsmpton
    Stockpyle – 5/4 – £10 Win

    Half brother to Pyledriver and reported to be further ahead than the latter, he ran a good race last time out.

    Libertus – 3/1 is half brother to The Tin Man and could provide a nice 1-2 Reverse Forecast.. :good:

    Stockpyle
    Libertus
    £2 Reverse Forecast

    Won’t make us a fortune but a small return today would be welcome.. :good:
    Best of luck
    Jac

    Hi Triptych.
    Never mind both of ours ran well and found one too good.
    I’m having one more look for a later race.
    Will post here if I find anything.
    Just grateful to Hollie for boosting my falling balance today!!!

    Here it is Triptych.
    Straight in!

    5pm wolves
    Carmela Soprano is knocking on the door still a maiden but ran really well behind good horses last time.
    If you have place ability on the exchange that may be the way to go.
    Dew you believe
    Typical M. Appleby runner.
    Just one pound above winning mark achieved in a stakes race. So should be a pound or two in hand. Jockey takes 3lbs off.
    Both win.
    ————————————–
    Hope you missed that one!!!!!!!

    5 30 pm

    Rose of Lancashire
    Win
    Looks hard to oppose here against some badly out of form runners. Ran close up second staying on to inexplicable last time and that runner has gone in again.
    Chloellie
    Each way
    Has reached a career basement mark of 44 and has won over shorter off 60/62.
    Not certain to appreciate over a mile but one of the better ones here who may make the places

    Sorry those two didn’t win for you Sam.
    I had to go out and collect a parcel and missed those two races. It was a difficult day today. :wacko:
    Although I don’t like it that much I am thinking of going to Chelmsford Races soon after Christmas Covid permitting, They usually have a meeting first week in January and its only 35 minutes away. :good: Jac

    Thank you Andre for voting MT as best Thread :heart: I can’t believe how many views we have had..it is really appreciated,
    It’s been quite a year and it’s always nice to know if there is anything horsey or non horsey that you want to discuss or recommend you can post it here.
    Not many sleeps now until Christmas but some exciting racing to look forward too this weekend..there’s certainly a Buzz in the air. :good:
    Good luck in the comps everyone. :rose:

    You’re welcome Jac! This is my favorite thread and the only thread I frequent on a regular basis (other than the comps of course). Lots of good people here!

    Lots of exciting racing in the coming days/weeks and yes, just a few more sleeps until Christmas!

    Stay Safe Everyone

    :good: That’s so nice to hear Andre thank you again. I love this Thread and all who post on it..so big thanks to all.

    Not long until Dubai and Meydan Thursdays 2022 kicks off for real in January and there is another Fantasy League on the horizon according to Godolphin who emailed me yesterday with more information due after Christmas so get those Stables ready :good:

    Good luck in the Saturday comps everyone..can’t wait to see Buzz and Champ take each other on in the Long Walk tomorrow. :good: Jac
