Many thanks to the forum legends who have voted thus far.
The rest of you?
A plague on all your houses!
I bet you haven’t voted for A in the gamble avatar poll either!

Exactly. There’s plenty of time, so stop getting your knickers in a twist.

I seem to recall Greville Starkey saying the same thing on Dancing Brave at the top of Tattenham Hill.
Well, alright, I don’t, I was half a mile away in the Stands, but you get my drift, Gladders!

Its like those in the betting shops that dash to the counter when the last horse has just entered the stalls. Never seen old men run so fast..

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"August 12, 2022 at 09:23 #1610766Haha don’t get me started Nathan. Amazing how a hare running at Crayford miraculously cures the ills of those who otherwise can’t move without crutches.
I always wanted to tell them that I opened the door at 8.30 this morning and it’s now 3pm, whose fault is you can’t get your bet on? My tongue still has the bite marks.
August 12, 2022 at 11:55 #1610773Currently feel that I am living under a dictatorship but the ERG aren’t on the list. And, although I’m dog sitting at my daughters house all of my spare time is being taken up with travelling home each day in an attempt to get my tv working (Talk Talk have sent out a replacement tv box and it can’t connect to the internet). My brain is scrambled. I get a bit obsessive about things like this and can’t think about anything else! Being a complete technophobe doesn’t help.Look forward to the race, though and sincere apologies for not voting. If I can resolve the issue when I go home today I’ll try to vote when I return to my daughters. If Talk Talk could end up in Bechers Brook that would make me very happy. ( I even couldn’t watch last nights racing because of it all…)
August 12, 2022 at 13:35 #1610779Voting closes at 11.59pm sharp tonight – not one second after!
That’s just ten hours and 24 minutes from now!

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"August 12, 2022 at 13:43 #1610780I appreciate punters putting on their bets about a second before the off time is often down to laziness or being awkward and I understand why it drives betting shop staff up the wall.
However, in some circumstances it is sensible to bet as late as possible. You might want to see how a horse with issues around its temperament handles the preliminaries. Also, late market moves are often very significant nowadays.
August 12, 2022 at 13:50 #1610782Late voting, however, is harder to fathom!
Unless it’s a conspiracy to have me up literally all night writing the commentary!
(Not that I mind – labour of love!)

Moe- clearly Talk Talk still has a hangover from the era of one D Harding, whose glittering CV also includes Test and Trace.
August 12, 2022 at 14:56 #1610794I have mentioned Ms Harding in one of my many recent conversations with TalkTalk. I still have the letter she sent out in 2015. She doesn’t deserve to have owned a Gold Cup winner. Mind you, didn’t he try to bury her in the paddock when she rode him once?
August 12, 2022 at 15:20 #1610798Voting closes in eight hours and 39 minutes!
