Okay Z
After your advice and my own investigation I am on…Timepiece 17
Revered 85
Hymnsheet 120
Pipette 130I just hope one or two of them turn up
P.S Pipette is entered at Kempton on Saturday.I hope it runs cos I am planning on going!!
Have to agree with Moe!!
Didnt have a bet in it but it would have been good to see the jockeys face when the result was announced!!I think its almost impossible to compare horses from different generations because of differences in going,state of the fences, training methods, feeds to name just a few. Also jockeys are certainly more professional today compared to the old days which may or may not contribute to an improved performance.
Its nice to do it but as far as a definitive answer is concerned it aint happening!!
If wishful Thinking turns up I would be very interested in it!!
I may be odd but I am actually getting more confident as the race gets closer!!
I think it might be lulling me into a false sense of security though!!
Come on Arbor Supreme!!
If you don em regularly Kop you will get used to the five out of six syndrome!!
If I fail to get it up I am disappointed if I don’t get five!!
Kauto Star done me out of the placepot Friday at Cheltenham for FORTY grand!! Admittedly irt wouldnt have paid anything like if it was placed but WHY O WHY didnt I put two in the Gold Cup!!
Well thats some consolation!!

I certainly couldn’t condone the blokes behaviour but I must admit I have felt like doing the same to numerous jockeys over the years!!

But seriously its a reflection of the violent society we live in!!
And as far as Fallon not being convicted of any riding crimes do you remember the Top Cees business? Would you sooner believe Thommo or Fallon?
Just personal opinion but last time I looked I was still allowed to have one even in these days of Nanny State!!If you go stictly on the form book then Mon Mome won the National off 148 and is now off 155 but won twelve lengths so it has a serious chance and a form line with Comply or Die which it beat twelve lengths is eight pouns better off so that should finish close to it!! But then conditions,form,luck and jockey performance have to be considered too!!
Personally I dont think it will win again but thats because apart from Red Rum they don’t win two on the trot!!
Humble Pie is ready though!!
March 29, 2010 at 14:51 in reply to: Which flat horse would you like to have seen over jumps? #286286Imagine some of these top class miler and a half horses like Singspiel or Pilsudski running over hurdles.
It would be fantastic!!It does you good to dream sometimes!!
I am not Scottish Dalry but I think you show some biased towards Rangers regarding McCoist in front of Dalgleish.That is TOTAL INSANITY but hey what do I know I am English!!
There is always an exception that proves the rule and Florida Pearl is that one!! But there are plenty that haven’t turned out to be as good as expected!!
Monsignor
Joe Cullen
Liberman
Missed That
Cousin Vinnyall became disappointing IMO
I wait to be convinced otherwise about Cue Card
March 29, 2010 at 14:29 in reply to: Which flat horse would you like to have seen over jumps? #286282It would have to be something like Geordieland or some other flat monkey!!
Some of these temperamental flat horses would either be killed or cured metaphorically speaking if sent over a set of hurdles!!March 29, 2010 at 13:55 in reply to: Grand National ,worst horse and one who boxed above itself #286278Was it the same year that Tom Morgan was rocket launched from Little Polveir??
I shouldnt laugh but that was funny and once again I dont know why I laughed cos I backed it cos I used to follow John Edwards horses.If they are going to keep it to four days then why not a vets race?
I would say 12 and upwards and have had to ran at a festival before.Then we would have proper old faves and not just old plodders that normally would running round Fontwell etc.
Not that I have anything against Fontwell!!To save me looking Z any of these Henry Cecil trained??
