There is a fair cross-membership which contradicts your point.Also both places had their genesis in the old ch4 forum.
I am certainly not part of any clique-I just post the same kind of stuff that is posted here.<br>The question is do you want this place to fade away or be revitalized.
Was the rail moved on Sunday morning? If I am not mistaken there have been a couple of incidents in the past regarding times at The Curragh.
Backed the 3rd at 25s to pay for a weekend at The Curragh.Will win a race but Easterby doesn’t do favours for the general punting public.
I took the 9/4 Echelon-where did you see 3/1-Ladbrokes had her very short this morning.
Shiroccos Breeders Cup form would see him home and hosed but against that Epsom is a track like no other and both horse and jockey are unproven on the track.<br>The best horse didn’t win last years Coronation Cup.
You could say the same about Giants Causeway and he is making it as a stallion.I heard Rock of Gibraltar has a tremendous appetite for the job.Rock by name,rock by nature is the quote I heard.
I will have an each way punt on Ace.If he is ever going to win a European Group 1 it will be tomorrow-if not I think they will try and find and American race.
Quote: from clivex on 9:55 am on June 1, 2006[br]If he was pulled out of dewhurst cos of "soft ground", why was he running on bottomless stuff on Saturday? I still dont get it :angry: <br>I think it has a lot to do with being seen to support a classic at The Curragh.I was listening to RTE radio about an hour before the race and they said that APOB was reluctant to run the horse.In hindsight it was definitely a mistake.

Having heard his opinions many times I can honestly say Dunwoody couldn’t tip sh1t off a shovel.
Around this time last year I lost my job-I also hit peak form on the horses.In a ten week period from mid April I won a little over€15,000-my betfair commission points were up to around 18,000.I was betting an absolutely savage amount but because I was winning I felt fully entitled to have a go.One friend of mine advised me to run with the ball and see how far I could take it.I was laying odds on shots in maidens for a grand and being fairly relaxed about it.<br>I got offered a job starting Royal Ascot week and I contemplated taking the summer off to see how far I could take it but having a wife and a child who was only ten months old at the time I really had to take the job-which I am still in.<br>Strangely enough when I started work I lost a couple of grand fairly fast so I did the sensible thing paid off a few bills ,bought a few things for the house and paid for a nice little holiday.<br>I have to say it was tremendously exciting while it lasted but you need nerves and balls of steel.
I saw Gillespie being interviewed last week and he was singing the virtues of Cheltenham as a place to conduct business,to conclude a deal,another stop on the prawn sandwich circuit.<br>In my opinion the fourth day dilutes the overall quality of the meeting.Cheltenham aren’t going to say no the additional revenue so whats the solution.My answer would be to take the 6 weakest races and run them on the Friday as they did with the Ascot Heath meeting that was previously run on the Saturday of the Royal meeting-surely this would satisfy the traditionalists and the managements greed for money.
