    I think you’ll find the answer is to use a different credit card.

    The point is the bet still has to be struck before the first race any way! So where’s the advantage?

    Wonder if his Grandfather drove a Hansom? Steroids would have been useful then!

    I’m not disappointed with that run, she ran up the backside of whatever was in front round the last bend which cost her momentum, but she wasn’t going to catch the old buggers up front! She put her best hoof forward and did her best, and I never ask any more from any one in this life.

    Welcome to TRF jinnyj , I’m the oldest bugger in the syndicate if you are wondering who I am. I’ve always thought that Taj was going to win a race for us  because she’s got attitude. She might not be the biggest or best in the world, but she seems to think that she is. Did you notice the way she was eyeballing the second and third in the winners enclosure yesterday?<br>Thanks to you and Brian for a smashing day out & must not forget Adrian, he was the man at the sharp end.<br>If she runs on Thursday I’ll throw a sickie.<br>

    They are also a bloody nuisance and one of the reasons for making me open an internet account. I only enter a shop now when I want to watch a specific race that I can’t watch at home because I have to fight past these infernal machines and the morons playing them.

    Quote: from Alderbrook on 10:40 pm on Jan. 7, 2007[br]Having read a number of books about Lester he’d probably prefer a couple of grand to the OBE…

    <br>Is there a pension with an OBE?

    Quote: from Wallace on 6:38 pm on Dec. 28, 2006[br]Yes Steve we are being a bit starved of action up here.  My mate had to endure a 10 hour round trip from Fife to some place in deepest Yorkshire to pick up six grand prize money for the horse winning yesterday!<br>

    You could have told us before.

    Steptoe’s "Hercules". <br>I’d probably make more money on the round than backing racehorses!:biggrin:

    Eh? <br>If you are self excluded (or any other kind of  excluded) you are not a paying customer. Where is the problem?
