Has a Champion Hurdler ever gone on to win the Stayers’ ?
I honestly can’t see anything other than a night of pain for Ricky.
His face-first style is made for Manny, and his punch resistance is all but gone, leading to him being rocked by some pretty ordinary opponents nowadays. Let’s be honest, with only 5 ko’s Malignaggi was never going to offer any risk, and if a powderpuff puncher like him can stun Hatton……….
I wouldn’t be too quick to challenge him if I were Ricky Hatton.
Too right.
Hatton will get eaten alive.
Good call, Equitrack.
I plumped for an ODLH points win, expecting him to use his physical advantages, but he wasn’t allowed to. He suddenly grew very old, didn’t he ?
MP’s next victim will be Ricky Hatton, but after that ?
Mayweather ? Margarito ? Cotto ?There’s some exciting fights to come for sure.
Really hope a fight can be set up for the summer to take on the Pacman.
Well, it’ll be a good payday, but Pacquaio will eat Hatton alive.
MP is an entirely different proposition to the fighters that Hatton has beaten.
Comedy of Errors is the only Champion Hurdler to regain the title.
Ridiculously talented, just still not a natural jumper yet.
A pedant writes –
"still not a natural jumper yet"
Oh never mind.
Was any of MFI’s gear manufactured in this country anyway ?
AP has shredded the record books – a phenomenal athlete, the like of which we may never see again.
In view of the horse’s name, reckon Geraghty didn’t dare turn it down.
Dylan Thomas 140 ?
As in, as good as Dancing Brave 140 ?
That’s gotta be wrong……
Moved to make an infrequent post……she was awesome.
Why should lester Piggot get a knighthood…I am more miffed he never won the BBC Sportsman of the Year which is amazing………The thing is to be knighted you have to be very good with a sword like Sir Anthony Hopkins (Zorro)and of course Lancelot was not only good with a blade he was humping the queen as well.

Mick Jagger got one but I have no idea why, when it should have gone to Keith Richards whos real name is Captain Jack Sparrow……without whom cruise holidays wouldn’t be safe today

I think Lester will manage fine without a Knighthood and would rather have a box of Cuban cigars…..what a silly but entertaining thread
.Jeez……you ever thought of taking more water with it ?
I still believe Kauto Star is the best chaser seen on a racecourse in 40 years. If and when they meet again Denman better hope Kauto is on an off day again…….If not and Kauto Star travels the way we know he can and jumps as well as he can, the big horse will be in big trouble.
Agreed.
To me, seems the 4/1 available for the ’09 GC is just a bet on the going. If it’s better than this year’s – KS wins. If it’s the same, KS again (unlikely he’ll have off-days in two successive GCs ). If softer, Denman.KS showed enormous bravery, Denman was on a treadmill after the last.
Only Golden Miller has won more than 3 times in the top class at the Festival in 70 years.
Persian War?. The Triumph’s top class, innit ?
Congratulations to Katchit, the horse and to Katchit the forumite.
A big ‘well done’ to you both

That’s all very well, and thanks for replying – but what of the whip question ?
