    Thank you for running the competition again by the way, you are very much appreciated by all I’m sure.
    Think this is my highest score in one of these, so I’m happy enough with my effort, I’m not going to be able to catch Vtc unless I can find a decent priced nap out there so will be targeting the top 3 instead.

    ps have a great time at the wedding and don’t drink too much Pimms
    what the heck, get smashed Jac….. :whistle: :rose:

    Thank you Nathan that is so appreciated as I couldn’t guarantee that I would be totting those scores up correctly in the car coming home Sunday night, oh and by the way Pimms is my favourite drink and as I’m not the delegated driver every hour will be Pimms O’clock ;-)

    I think we will all struggle to catch Vtc he’s been on top form this year and it’s been a great compy.
    Still a chance that the Starmix Challenge could be won on the last day and could Bobby do an AOB and take all 3 prizes in the comp??? I’ll be doing a quick check out of all the comps if I get a chance on Saturday.

    The weather looks set to make Champions Day a tricky affair so will be looking out for those horses who go on the soft and have the stamina to run into a headwind :wacko: no pressure then.

    Good luck for the final Saturday of the Flat comp and good luck in making it onto the Podium Nathan.

    In an attempt to keep second, as VTC is now a clear leader and IMO uncatchable :bye:

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.
