    AP should surely be in the list?

    I’m honoured (not to mention surprised) to make the final.

    Always a pleasure to visit this forum and read various, interesting opinions on a variety of subjects within this sport we love.

    What’s the latest betting? :lol:

    Quite a difficult choice; torn between the bravery of Silvoir and the vigilance of Glenn.

    With a one to two percent turnout
    no non-exchange bookmaker
    would be brave enough.

    My previous form
    fifth in 2003
    just behind Daylight
    and way behind
    the front running

    With a quarter of the votes already in this morning
    there is a horn ed bull head and a tail a forming
    but one might mistletoe the long-legged Vorderman and ask
    what happened to the gray wonder of winter last ?

    " Like the dying days of an old and faithful family pet, or the inexorable decline of a once-proud elderly relative into a diminishing shell of skin in a care home, the reduction of a horse race that has been part of your formal racing education to something of zero consequence is something quite hard to take."

    Coloumn’s votes came late last year Gamble, so perhaps it’s Graysons style to come from deep. :o

    As for whoever put my name up must of been very drunk or getting in 1st points in competing for next years TRF comedian of the year award.

    Also missing from the list are Bulwark who has had more big priced winners on his 2 mile hurdle thread and at the Breeders cup meeting then I’ve had hot dinners, he also organised this years Cheltenham and Aintree competitions very well.

    Gingertipster has taught me value is everything, i didn’t go to school but can now read the price percentage table backwards in my sleep ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz.

    Aaronizneez, Ugly Mare, Zarkarva, Irish Stamp, Himself, Equitrack, Graeme the donkey and about 3,000 others have all contributed far more than me to this forum.

    Bosranic, Fist and TAPK came close but my vote went for Drone because my hand slipped and i clicked the mouse over his dot.

    hmmm if Drone has a dot
    he will unfairly appeal
    to both factions
    quite similarly to
    Prufrock’s high heeled wit
    who’s in need of a better ra ra
    to define his point.

    who doesn’t appear to have
    trained on. :mrgreen:

    I’m amazed at the grimes omission
    so promising in the Daylight cup
    of yesteryear …

    " No offence intended, folks. I know Daylight (as I knew him) was a terrific bloke. It’s just that it was a bit too complicated for me to understand. And since I always seem pushed for time, it’s probably just as well. "

    Caught at first slip, a dot ball it is Nathan; an uncertain corridor we wend, weave and wallow in…howzat!

    This is nothing but an embarrassing end of year bit of daft frivolity

    I was the soberish comedian who nominated you along with namesake Hughes, as the way you’ve conducted yourselves on this inconsequential message board would have been the way the blessed Cardus would have behaved had he been unfortunate enough to have been born in 1958 rather than 1888

    Spats, brogues, tweed, Victor Trumper and The Manchester Guardian…

    The Ashes competition was good fun, thanks

    Bless you, Friendsheep. There was always a chance, though, that a limited 2009 campaign (mostly confined to just the Racing and Lounge boards) and the double penalty would prove two impositions too great to overcome. 8)

    I expect AP is well pleased to be chucked in a hat with some of that rabble.
    You should also use spellcheck… metions is not a word.

    Oh,and neither is ‘teh’

    Rabble? Are you flushing the other four out as BHA clones?

    Mr Andrew Hughes writes about leather and willow ffs! (but does write well)

    However, ‘Tom’ lays more of a claim on this forum! :wink:

    Voted for Moe, as Marble was right a few months ago when he wrote that I was missing her when she was on holiday. I’ll be bally annoyed if I lose by one vote. :lol:

    This is a bit before my time, but I’m rather bemused as to how GC won this for two years running, when all he seems to write about is horses that no one has heard of, ridden by jockeys no one has heard of, at tracks no one has heard of, or about songs no one has heard of, by artists that no one has heard of. :mrgreen: Its not the kind of stuff that a racing outsider like myself can ever join in.

    Oh dear, the light is particularly cold this morning

    The axons were firing even more randomly than usual last night

    What began and was supposed to end as a convivial high-tea for four comprising £3.99 Burger, Chips and complimentary drink at Wetherspoons mutated into a gallon of splosh and a wobble home circa 9pm

    Guinnessed rather than kroned

    ‘Tis the season to be silly, and even an old dog needs the occasional loosing-off :oops:
