    Here's the big one boys. Gonna side with the favourite in this one too with the weight advantage which i think will be decisive though no bets today so watching for interest only.

    Afternoon, people. Nothing for me today although Mr Henderson's Key To The West (4.25 Warwick) cost a fortune and it will be hugely disappointing if he doesn't commence his career with a resounding victory. Current odds-on quotes are though hardly, and I do mean hardly, appealing.

    Very disappointed that both Montbazon and Mr Henderson's Mossley have been taken out of their engagements a Huntingdon tomorrow. They both urgently need to take their next steps towards the Festival. Hopefully, though both will run soon.

    I like Harry Redknapp's assertion that he is being accused of being bent because of his cockney accent <laugh>

    RV: <laugh> You know, should mention that I reckon Mr. Dexter is a real gentleman. The other day I thanked him for wishing all Chinese members a Happy Chinese New Year. He never even told me to FO. Maybe he forgot?.................................


    Hmmmmmm, that Irish race just finished was a question of jockeyship, wouldn't you agree?

    Don't think you can look to much into that race. Farcical pace throughout

    That was a terrible race. Walsh stole that. If the pace had been on, I think she'd have beaten him.

    Small Field + Ruby Walsh = Winner.

    Farcical pace but VLV never looked like getting there. Decent enough effort from Zaidpour giving weight.
