    Nathan, are you really that close to the Hannon stable?
    And if yes, would you consider sending them a horse?

    If I won the Euro millions I might consider it. It would depend if the horse suited the trainers style others are avaliable.
    There is a member on here very close to Hannon, he even goes jogging with him once a week. I won’t reveal who it is but he has ginger hair. :rose:

    Hi Hein :bye:
    Been away a couple of days so just seen your post.

    Get what you’re saying about William Haggas but having visited his yard just prior to him losing Sea Of Class and getting to meet the guy I have a lot of respect for his operation and what a sadness to lose a filly like herself. it was a just a personal choice and no way expect him to win and probably will be bottom of the pile as we all know Johnny G has it in the bag, but thought he was deserving of a mention here.

    Simon Holt just a throw in, I don’t really mind who’s commentating as long as it’s not Derek Thompson. :wacko:

    You are right Jac, that was a hard stroke for Haggas which he couldn’t compensate.
    Maybe he can find another horse to follow up and form to top class next season :bye:

    I can’t stand Ian Bartlett’s voice, as to me he sounds like a medieval ceremony master :-(

    I’m actually struggling with this to an extent Nathan…..Tried doing it once or twice + keep failing with one or two.

    Has Ginge retired from the forum?

    As far as I know he is taking a break
    He wasn’t happy about the censorship / princess Latifa threads

    Ps you don’t have to nominate in every award

    It’s all right, Nathan. I’ll stick to Andy, even though I was a bit disappointed by his defeat the other day.

    I’m still here. ;-)

    Poster Of The Year – Nathan Hughes – had my run-ins with him but he’s a good bloke… most of the time. He’s always thinking of people other than himself – even if some of us feel the edge of his tongue because of it.

    Flat horse of the year – Pinatubo – wish he was owned by someone else but the horse deserves full credit for putting up the best juvenile form for some considerable time.

    Villain Of The Year – Am I allowed to say Sheikh Mo, or doesn’t his antics count on this particular forum/Awards?

    To be honest I’ve got the impression from your latest posts that you are seriously in love and therefore very busy with your girlfriend, Ginger?! This is of course a much stronger passion than horseracing..
    I hope I’m not bugging you and I wish you also a very Merry Christmas, as I do to all of the forum :bye:

    I must admit this is kind of a surprise for me Ruby, as last time out you were seriously insulting me :bye:
    But I’m willing and able to wipe this out, so I wish you a Merry Christmas too, Mr. cold Hundschnauze :yes:
