    aintree,3 00: OLD ROAN CHASE

    well,what can you say about CLOUDY DREAM? another "nearly horse"?surely,yes,but hes a big peoples favourite,maybe just because of that,i dont know.have to say,i am also a big fan of him,and he probably didnt get the credit he deserves so much,so far in his career,but has been often mixing it with the best,so maybe his new surroundings will do him good.big shout today.

    I put Flying Angel up on Friday for this when he was around the 8/1 mark. Goes well fresh, likes the ground and track and hopefully he can rediscover the for which won him the Manifesto a couple of years ago.

    Will probably finish last <laugh>

    FRODON for me. Been given the chubby ones obligatory wind op. Only 4lb above his highest win mark and none of theses look well treated. The class act in the race for me, small bet only,

    Yes, I think a few on here thought that way at times. I know it's some kind of "Fun from the Black Forest" with the gentleman, but it is of course impossible to give tip after tip after tip, and expect to show a profit at the end of the day. He has done it occasionally, I know, but it is a forlorn task IMHO? Heck, for myself, I give a single tip just rarely now, and I cannot remember the last winner I gave, think last one was months ago, and no one noticed of course, they were so shocked. <laugh>

    If Nicholls keeps clapping the weight on he'll need a wind-op himself <yikes>

    As I recall you went on a decent run a while back, I think I had to back one to stop the run <laugh>

    CLOUDY DREAM put in a poor round of jumping there today, never got into a decent rhythm and in fact did exceptionally well to finish so close.

    <laugh> God. that must have been years ago, Stick, but it is nice that you remembered it. The run was of course stopped by the writer, no one else can be blamed! :emoticon-0100-smile

    I'd never compare something as beautiful and powerful as a horse to that bell-end <laugh>

    Best of luck mate, the lovely one does have her string in good order. I actually like REIGNING SUPREME today and very nearly put it in the POTY,

    Great to see a Foxtrot horse turning over a Nicholls 1/8 shot! In good style too!

    Nicely done by Ruby there.Will throw a few coppers on Kalinisi Og in the fillies flat race 3/1, she might just have to much for these especially with the steep finish in mind.

    I looked at her earlier, cheap buyback at the sales and interesting that Patrick preferred to go to Wexford.

    Couple of quid on MISS CEDILE at Galway and BRIERY EXPRESS at Aintree
