    Oh, dear. That was the one green and I were concerned about. Hopefully there aren’t any more to come from that meeting.

    RIP Port Joulain

    Nathan, I think he still has room for improvement, but Kauto remains the real deal so far. He needs to confirm his wins next season. But he is no hype horse any longer.

    I asked for 180 and we got 180.

    There are people on this forum who are just allergic to too many opinions about horses’ welfare. They will respond with crap like “treated like kings, living the best life in a 5 star hotel” and further BS…
    It’s called freedom of speech or something like that.

    Great stuff. I see no reason why your system (or one very similar to yours) shouldn’t be used in the future. I really like it since I can fully understand it. It would prevent such late season charges we’ve seen from Mullins in the past….

    I was too young for Star Wars back in 1976, but became a Superman fan in the early 80s. The first Star Wars movie I watched was Return of the Jedi in 1983. But somehow I still stuck to Superman. A bit like HDLG claiming IET is the better horse compared to Gaelic Warrior.

    Golden Ace holds an 3-0 record over Constitution Hill, beat him fair and square every time they’ve met.

    Danny’s Friend is the horse you’re thinking of CAS. Jack Tudor rode that one six times in a row just to make sure he didn’t get anywhere near to the first three places. And then the horse wins easily at Hereford when backed into 9/4……

    They finally took notice. Jack Tudor is the Pipe ‘job jockey’ and one who regularly lands the stable’s gambles. He does have a year long schooling in public experience and is probably very reliable when it comes to handicapping a horse.

    They didn’t punish the wrong combo.

    Well done, GM. She looked like a mature horse with further improvement to come.

    Well, as I’ve said before, I’m not very bright.
    But women, like it or not, have spent far too long being judged on how they look. These people will have agonised about what to wear, knowing they’re going to be judged and go out hoping they look ok.
    Men, on the other other hand, throw on a suit and call it good.
    Whatever, I’m assuming you’re all adults and should know better. You’ll presumably have or have had, mothers, sisters, wives. Think how you’d feel to hear them pilloried in such a fashion.
    And, childishly, maybe they wouldn’t be that impressed with your dress sense. You’re not being bitched about though.

    :good:

    Getaway Tobin 20/1 EW and Kells House 22/1 EW 4 places. Also keep an eye on the well-bred Market Square.

    Also added Storm Heart at 9/1 WIN only. Looks a horse who can handle the track.

    I thought retirement was considered, but there could be some decent rides to pick up from other stables.
