    It’s your style mate. Sorry but you don’t seem to be able to write a post without dropping in the fact that you backed this winner or that winner.
    You know your stuff and I honestly like reading your posts but please please please drop the aftertiming.

    With regards to TNO. The whole unlucky Champion Hurdle debate has been done to death. On the day he retires can we not just celebrate what a great horse he was. Wouldn’t think it was too much to ask.

    My ante-post selections are not aftertiming. They were all posted on the internet long before the races. The posts are still on the internet.

    I am new to this forum, so I can hardly Tardis the posts back in a la Dr Who. You can believe them or not, the truth is out there.

    I gave my honest appraisal of The New One's career. A horse retiring does not mean we should all get teary eyed and don rose-tinted spectacles to assess his achievements.

    The horse should probably have been retired earlier but Racing seems to be an inherently greedy sport where connections wish to drive the horses into the ground, rather than face the facts and do the honourable thing.

    Anyway, I've had enough of the cheapshots on here. I have other things on my mind, so I'll leave the jokers to get on with their catty remarks and let the horses do their talking in the Spring.

    Let me just avail you of the 606 rule. Not my rule as I am just another poster.

    Put it on here before it wins, gloat all you like. If you don’t, we don’t need to hear.

    You are so like someone who used to post on here so I will let everything else go.

    Best of luck with your more pressing matters.

    What else are you letting go?

    You, "Just another Poster". Hardly.

    You told other people to simply press the Ignore button but you can't stop poking your nose in to stir the pot.

    Pardon me for seeing my forthcoming heart operation as "More Pressing"

    What a horrible, paranoid person you are.

    Don’t you dare call me names or tell me what I am thinking.
    I genuinely wished you well as I read about your appointment on another post. You really don’t know me if you think I am a horrible person.
    Remove that chip from your shoulder.

    What else are you "Letting Go"? I don't like the inference that I have done something that needs forgiving. I am striving to be objective and give my reasoning through logical statements but I am getting plenty of derogatory statements in return.

    Fair enough, some of my ante-post winners were not posted here. I simply was not a member of the forum at the time. That does not mean that they didn't happen and it's relevant because people have said here that ante-post betting is a mug's game.

    Fair enough, the message I get here is that this forum is largely a winning one and does not need any input from me.

    Moderators, please delete my account. I will share my thinking elsewhere.

    Bye bye and best of luck.

    No apology for the name calling then?

    Funnily I had a bet last week that this would happen at 18/1. Followers in clover

    Absolute BS there was never any 18/1 on offer for this.
