Personally I prefer the big field
I have been looking for the big field most of
my life but have never found it
I pulled over once
just before I was about to
join an autostrada.
I thought I had spotted the big field.
I got out and found myself on tarmac
– no field in sight.
I screamed out to relieve the stress.I let my fox lay in today
there was no all weather.
I had a favourable day
and this evening I may
pop out to look for the big fieldMay 8, 2010 at 17:57 #294749‘Tis good to see the urban myth that he is,
back to a rock and a hard place.
His visual sound waves have been conspicuous by their rationing of late.
Welcome to the home of the brave, Gamble.

If this is the land of the brave
I had better declare myself a chicken.
I have never been to war
and with my spiralling luck
if I ever did go
I’d probably shoot myself
with a riccochet
and end up in the big fieldAs for the poor saturday punter
I feel sorry for the scoopers
standing on a lonely beach with their
64 pound of diseased fish.I might have joined in today
but only had 40 minutes to win a million
so passed it by.
Surprisingly I was very pleased
when Eradicate won.I feel deeply for joe punter
specially if he weakens and
takes on the misery bet.
Getting five right might
just ruin his darts arm
and just remember
it’s not something you can
tell anyone. If you do
They’ll just think your plain daft.Nevison put the kettle
on and made himself
a cup of tea
after his topless experience.
Thatsa what I call gutsMay 8, 2010 at 20:19 #294775Ken I’m back
and will write a few w*rds before
I stock up on krone.Good to see you writing again,
as I remember it you took
some time off,
well that was some time ago.
Always good to see the old faces.I don’t feel anyone should have
any feelings of compunction
to contribute in these death houses.I have tipped for ten years
and still find the odd five second vigil
for the excommunicated.
I am totally against the online death penalty,
and feel a stretch is the right way.
Preferably on the rack
Ricky talks of
The saturday punter
an odd phenomonum
– people who work
I believe.There is far too much racing
to assess collateral form in the old way
so some sensibly adapt to other structures
or assessments to find a path.The strange mix of all weather form is
also a nightmare for joe
who used to enjoy bob a job once
and the difficulty of weeding
an old lady’s garden.I used to start more seriously
on the flat on the 26th of May,
nowadays there is so much happening
I cannot even work out the date.
The late night shop is
the only good thing to happen
in modern times
and I’m off to relieve them of stock.May 9, 2010 at 00:07 #2948230105 AM
One cold beer left in the fridge
that is discipline and
to remove it would be easy
far easier than finding the winner
of any common or garden Hunter Chase;
the most befuddling sludge mix of twig form,
and harder than a murder enquiry
into the death of several twins
who all ended up on the same package holiday
kayaking in the arctic.goodnight
to the poor Saturday Punter
and the remnants of
and an excellently contentious thread

r.hughes on duncan, im not even going to bother commenting on that ride!!

Probably for the best if you think Hughes was at fault.
May 10, 2010 at 11:36 #295092what was your opinion on the ride dave
May 10, 2010 at 11:52 #295093I thought the race was full of dodgepots, in which on ability Duncan could and should have beaten them with a fair bit in hand. However last year the horse showed he’s not an easy ride, pulling fiercely hard on occasions. I think the horse was hanginhg persistently right and refusing to apply himself, had Hughes gone for everything, he’d have hung right across to the rail. You can see when he does ask him, he leans in and hampers the eventual fourth. Probably the best horse in the race but his own fault rather than the jockeys that he got beat.

I think you’re both being a little unfair to Barshiba.
Since stepping up to 12f and allowed to bowl along with the pace she’s been an absolute revelation – after her inaugural run when she went off too fast, she’s been beaten just once in 4 races, and that a gp1 against top class opposition.
Dodgepot she certainly isn’t, and I’d back her to beat Duncan – anytime they meet.May 10, 2010 at 15:47 #295119There’s no doubt that Barshiba’s willingness won her the day and I wouldn’t necessarily disagree that she’d beaten Duncan again, I don’t necessarily think she’s got as much ability, but she’s easier to channel to show it.
May 10, 2010 at 17:00 #295124Duncan completely dogged that. Can’t blame the jockey for that.
May 11, 2010 at 22:51 #295353didnt think he wanted to win on it personally
