    That was a real ****er bet. One slipped up and the other was tailed off last of the 12 finishers <doh>

    A nice winner that was for Juddmonte in Suffused over at Gulfstream. Went widest of all too but running very strongly to the line.

    Thanks for the interest in Wycombe. Too tied to the radio to see the comments at the time. Glad I couldn't go now. I think when we went 3-2 with 7 mins to go, and still winning in the 89th minute, I would have had a heart attack. Still I'd have been in heaven. What a way to go. Gutted for the lads but what an effort. We had Kashket through on goal and ruled offside, when he wasn't, and we hit the bar. Should have been 1-0 up within the first minute. Really proud of them.

    Can only apologize for Jamal Blackman, pretty much cost you the game, was always **** and clearly didn't learn any of the chelsea values to do it vs spurs!

    Spurs were lucky today Ron and just got away with it with less than half their first team. Liverpool, Newcastle and Brighton paid the price for disrespecting the competition. Giving up the chance of a cup run for premiership cash or in Liverpool's case Champions League cash. Pathetic really.

    Arrogate makes it a procession with CC running no race having to do to much from wide but not sure that was the main reasoning for the poor effort.

    Nice each way on Neolithic Edward.

    Arrogate is a beast, probably the best in the world, shame he isnt going for the World Cup at Meydan.

    Chrome was 6 wide into the first bend but as STH says, was too bad to be true even given that, very surprised that they are not going for another shot at the Dubai World Cup but maybe hes had enough.

    If You liked his Welsh national win then you have to be impressed with BDM peter marsh win only a pound or two lower than NR Hennessy and national win which don't forget was on the same mark and neither were as strong as previous years- and If it is a wet Friday afternoon DON POLI 33/1 ew great price! But have also got CC as I can't believe am. Gonna say Tbis but is a thorough stayer who will appreciate some cut in the ground runs better at Cheltenham than anywhere and can forgive his KG run too

    A bit after the event, but I arrived home from Cheltenham late last night. It was my fiftieth birthday on Saturday and big crowd of us were there to bare witness what was the best race I've seen there for many a year but unfortunately it wil be ingrained on my memory for all the wrong reasons. Many clouds what a warrior thistlecrack had him beat but he came back for more and wasn't being beaten. I had thistlecrack in a treble and was gutted when he lost but we do a little thing where everyone chucks in a nicker and someone is nominated for a secret bet and it was my turn and I did many clouds. We were unaware of the tragedy that unfolded at the top of the hill but word spread and an atmosphere of gloom appeared over the course for the rest of the afternoon. Wel anyway we won £250 and I was decided we wouldn't spend it in the pub after but donate it to a horse charity in memory of many clouds.
    On the races, I wasn't impressed with un de sceaux I thought uxiczandire ran a blinder. I had a couple of winner foxtail hill and wholestone and you knowwhatimeanarie confirmed he is the real deal.
