Blackbeard to conquer the World

[IanDavies]

“The Metamorphosis
Of Chezza”
(By Chezza)

Well, that’s enough of me
….talking about me.

What do you all think
….about me?

As metamorphoses go,
this was a poor one.

There’s no decorum,
at The Racing Forum.

Ian I like it,
however it gives me runner up vibes
good news is there is only about 27 days left for others to enter
if your poem is the only one, you become a strong favourite to win

Still, Chezza will miss finishing second when he’s third….or worse!

Chezza would recommend buying shares in Nathbet if it ever floats on the stock market – it’s management has clearly perfected an excellent, ruthless, modern betting operator business model.

I have just put vegamite on my mental shopping list.

[Gladiateur]

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Constitution Hill wins
Facile Vega does too

[IanDavies]

Genius.

Gladders and Chezza flip flop in the market

*NEW RULE*

You can post as many poems as you like but can only submit one for voting

Blackbeard to conquer the World

[Marlingford]

Keeping it on a racing theme, this is entitled “An ode to modern training methods”:

The ground could be wet
The ground could be hard
But it’s not the Cheltenham Festival
So my horses stay in the yard

[Nathan Hughes]

Marlingford has entered the equation
I’ll enter you into the betting

Blackbeard to conquer the World

[Nathan Hughes]

A warm up poem..

Electric isn’t cheap
Gas costs a lot too
Chezza lives in an igloo
His face is bright blue

But Ians tips are in fire..🔥
Betfair his his choice of kill
He’ll be a near millionaire
When Constitution sprints up that Hill

Blackbeard to conquer the World

[IanDavies]

As Jack Nicholson’s Joker said in Batman: “I’m going to need a moment here, boys.”

Marlingford’s ode was excellent, but Chezza moved to tears by that poem of sheer beauty by Nathan.

They say Chezza’s a bit of a misfit
Who lives off nothing but curry and biscuits
He said ‘I’ll be blunt’
‘I love a massive punt’
‘Constitution Hill 1/3, I’ll risk it’

[IanDavies]

Chezza will happily take getting turned over for Poster Of The Year if it means being the inspiration for so many frankly-exceptional works of English Literature.

Chezza can see a few of these getting on future school curricula, especially at that top educational establishment: “Saint Chezza’s Academy for Welsh and Mancunian Young Ladies From Socially-Disadvantaged Backgrounds.”

[Steeplechasing]

There once was a trainer called Mullins
Thought he’d count up his money in shullins
He said he’d be done when the heat of the sun
Had melted the heart of The Cuillins
