    Certainly not mal. We all value her input. I think with her young family and work she started to have less time for the forum. It would be great to hear from her again

    Don't understand him running on soft ground. I did suggest him as a long shot for the Arc if he was ready and the ground came up fast. Hope he is OK

    Some very nice novice hurdlers on show at Chepstow today and whilst Paul Nicholls will rightly grab the headlines I must say I was VERY taken by Soaring Glory. A very good bumper horse, he hurdled fluently and put the race to bed in a matter of strides at the business end. Wouldn't surprise me if he went on to become the best horse we have seen at Chepstow today.

    What did you make of McFabulous? Be nice to see a Persian War winner go on to great things.

    Oddy, ignore Stick, he’s been on the vimto at the golf club again.

    McFabulous wouldn’t be a stayers hurdler for me and he worries me with his technique but he’s a mighty individual and one that should make up to a top class horse.

    id be wary of the form today though, I’m not a fan of Courtanbould as a graded horse, I think that race was mediocre for the grade apart from the winner.

    Vimto <laugh> <ok>

    I really did like Soaring Glory though - in fact I might contemplate entering a 10 to follow comp just to have him in it

    Hopefully a lucky last for me with Bermejo at Chepstow. Was supported a bit when pulled up in a class 3 at Uttoxeter last time out. Down in class today. A gamble was landed yesterday at Exeter with this trainer/jockey combo. Bermejo often runs into the money when competing in class 4 or 5 so could reach a place at least...

    The only thing I would say is he won in a decent time on the snaff today. Bigger tests await of course.

    Evening all.
    I've a question that I'm hoping the forum can help with. I think I'm right in thinking some/one of the members used to work in a betting shop, so maybe able to help.
    Does anyone know if shops offer cash out options on multiples? Let's say i had a 4 horse acca on and 3 had come in, could I walk in and ask them if they would offer me a cash out sum? I know its common online.
    (Not in the position now, just wondering)
    Thanks

    20:15 Kempton - Selsey Sizzler

    (Said I wouldn't mess with these evening meetings but this one caught my eye. Still a maiden but gradually improving and has the form to run well in this event. 8/1 best price at time of writing.)
