http://www.allertons.com & http://www.treehouseonline.co.uk have (easier?) tools to do this too.

Yeah it’s easier, but i just like mine cos they look like the type you get in the center pages on Grand National day.

If you, on your own, owned a race horse; what would you have your silk colours be?

Mine would be:

Describe yours and if it’s feasible; i’ll post a pic of what it’d look like, like mine above. It’s fun!

That looks great – how did you do it?

There’s a code that you put together and put it into the URL and it comes up. It’s really fun to play with!

I wish her a speedy recovery.

In an interview she said she’s feeling "fantastic", but that doesn’t mean a thing really. Cancer has a way of making it’s victims feel as healthy as ever before seraiously striking them down. I hope this is not the case for her; but until further treatment is done… don’t jump to conclusions.

[peter .h]

For me, a race should not be titled as a "national" unless it is at least 4 miles. I cannot see this as a positive move as true fast-ground stayers are going to be severely inconvenienced at a time when marathon races are already scarce.

In that case; what would the Irish and Welsh Nationals be known as? "The Really Long, But Not Long Enough To Be Called A National Irish/Welsh Race"?

I have a slight issue with David Pipe.

It seems he is too keen to put the blinkers on underperforming runners. I appreciate that this tactic has worked well on the odd occassion, but not for the majority? Any views?

I’m sure he’s not just doing it for the fun of it. I don’t think Dave’s the type to think to himself "well Comply or Die improved with the blinkers… so everyone must!" I’m sure there’s methods behind his…. apparant madness.

I always loved the blue and white of the Embrico… Aldaniti’s colours…. and i still hold to this day that Brave Highlander would’ve carried them to victory in 2001 had he not been carried out!

Here’s what my colours would look like:

I also really like the black, white and green of Lady Clarke.

Don’t suppose you have any Becher Chases? I’ve been looking all over for them on the net, but have had no luck

Good call, i’d love to see the 2000 Becher win again of Young Kenny.

And of course who wouldn’t want to see the 2003 Becher? The most eventful in it’s history and the more pulsating finish ever!

Don’t suppose you have any Becher Chases? I’ve been looking all over for them on the net, but have had no luck.

I’ve been wanting to see the 1998 Becher for the last 10 years.
