So a bloke who I work with who dips his toe into (part) owning horses every now and again told me a couple of weeks ago to back O O Seven in the Topham and that he was on at 16s. I didn't back it until last night when it was 10s (drifted since) but looking at the race I see no reason why we won't get a big run for our money.

Disclaimer. This is not info, I know there a few on here who get a bit precious about the use of that word. It's just a knowledgeable bloke (not me, my colleague) passing on a strong fancy that he's had a fair bit on.
 
Happily berthed in McCoy’s Corporate hospitality. If the great man shows himself I will be sure to pass on SBCs warmest wishes. The scouse lasses never disappoint wearing very little as usual. Enjoy everyone.

Nice one Chan, enjoy mate. Top man is AP, legend <ok>

Great for the Woolacotts <ok> Not so great for my 2nd place however. Power was hard at work a long way out and got him interested again, but too late.

Elephant Escapes next at Aintree :)

Does anyone else agree female jockeys in general are a lot better than men jockeys or is it just because they don't get the same amount of rides so we can't see their crap rides as much?

Because Apart from Moore on the flat and Ruby over jumps who I'd have over any jockey, I'd rather have Bryony, Katie Walsh and Rach Blackmore over any male jump jockey on my horse, and I'd rather have Nicola Currie or Josephine Gordon on any flat jockey other than maybe Danny Tudhope
 
Nice one Terrefort... Ran well from the very start, and just put it to bed once he jumped the last... Just wished i'd backed it...<doh>

Me too Red! He's one of my trackers horses but I wasn't convinced he'd stay. Proved me wrong in spades
