    Too late to get Annsam 1.05 on my 3 but I’ll have a bet anyway.

    You certainly know your golf Graham – well done mate! 800 quid is nice with Cheltenham just a few weeks away. Seems like you consistently find winners, first round leaders, etc.

    I used my first Godolphin swap yesterday. I’m now on 1,430 pts and 246th overall. (I think that includes 200 pts from the bonus race).

    Hope everyone is doing well.

    Good Luck with all your bets and comp picks today.

    Take Care

    Thanks Andre, It couldn’t have happened at a better time. I haven’t checked when
    Bobby’s swap week is, I better get round there and have a look.

    Thanks for your score Andre :good:
    I’m going to update the scoreboard next week after the big Friday that is coming up.

    Not many points this week … My score is now..
    1570 – 190th

    The Bonus Race was extremely difficult but I think I got awarded 200 points as I put Olympic Candle in last position and he didn’t run. I don’t know why they left his name there but they awarded points for him running last…this competition just gets madder and madder ..who is running it? :wacko: Jac

    That was so disappointing, I reckon all chance of him heading for the Gold Cup
    has gone after that run today.

    Such a shame Ahoy Senor failed to fire today Graham, noticed he didn’t have his usual jockey on board, do you think that could have made a difference. It has been 2 years since he won now. Hope all is well with him. :rose: Jac

    Maybe Jac, but maybe age has just caught up with him. It’s a pity
    I’ve got £20 E/W at 100/1 ages ago. Paddy is still offering £40
    cash out, I expected it to be halved after today. I’m not sure
    he’ll even get to the Gold Cup after his last 2 runs so Paddy’s
    offer is tempting. I’m not sure what to do :unsure:

    Yes I watched the golf Darren and very well done with your 9/1
    bet on Hatton. Yes I will be having a bet on the Farmers Insurance
    Open and I might put a 1st round leader on the Ras Al Khaimah
    Championship. I wish I could get a 9/1 winner at the golf ;-)

    Take the cash out Graham!

    Frigid temps here for the last few days. The Orange Buffon has taken over the White House. A sad day for everyone, except his cult followers.

    Hope everyone is well

    I agree with Andre..cash out and then you can always re-invest a little at the 66/1 as a saver if you want too Graham.

    What a strange Inaugeration that was on Monday Andre with Trump being 20 minutes late when he was supposed to be sworn in at 47 minutes past the hour as it’s 47th President just seems a snub to the history of America in my opinion along with the pardons granted to every single person involved in the riots last term. :wacko:

    Nick..
    What a Friday it’s going to be at Meydan races… :yahoo:

    Back to today …

    A horse I have been following since my last visit to Newmarket for the Final Meeting in November runs at Kempton this evening….

    6.00 Kempton

    CHOURMO – 16/1 – EW

    He won a Class 5 over 1 mile in brilliant style and I vowed to follow him NTO but I was horrified when they run him over hurdles which he hated and was pulled up.

    Now he is back on the flat running in a Class 5 over a mile. He’s a big built individual and looked to have so much future potential when I saw him he went straight into my notebook.

    Let’s see how he handles his return to the flat and hope he hasn’t been put off by his Jumps experience.
    He’s a lovely price if reproducing his Newmarket form. :good:

    No luck for Chourmo tonight.
    Just a freebet lost and will give him another chance next run if he’s not sent back jumping. Jac :good:

    Roll on Meydan B-)

    Frustrating evening, had Beauty Generation and Paradias written down but didn’t go through with a bet. I think I’m holding back for the Meydan card, although I see a lot of shorties on show right now so may be more of a watching brief. I’ll find out tomorrow. No storms in Dubai to worry about at least.
