Jac xThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Hi Jac,
Nice photo of the Frankel horse on the other thread.
Glad you had a good week, some good racing and seeing that toad-rag Joni must have been a highlight, seems he chickened out of the x-factor this year……I’ll post my selections in the morning, still tactically sussing out which way to go
Gaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
Yes seeing Joni was great and he was in great voice from where I was standing shouting home Elarqam ;)
I’ve picked out a couple of big prices at Newmarket to back each way tomorrow but wasn’t brave enough to post them up so went for the safer options..good luck with your tactical choices…He Who Dares Wins (that’s another I should have done last week..LOL X JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...Drew a blank last week, so hoping better from these 3 hopefuls
