    I just love the fact Quel that everyone on these forums watches and gleans info from bumpers. A few years ago they were regarded with disdain by most punters.
    The youngsters that are on here like RV and TC, ROTO etc all watch them looking for future info. Pretty good they are at it too.

    If it's on it's a massive no bet all day at Punchy. I've already lost a hundred quid backing Zaidpour only for that fiddler Mullins to declare him a non runner.

    I got that tweet as well. He's brilliant.

    Bumpers are my favourite races from a punting perspective alongside small field Irish graded chases and hurdles. The Cantilon pick yesterday was inspired but I bet it was as much due to his record in bumpers as it was the breeding etc.

    The game's got so boring I've come on here. If we don't get the drama of penalties after all this I'll feel cheated

    Good luck with her. Everything is telling me she'll win but I don't like her price so just watching it without an active bet.

    The game's certainly enough to send you to sleep. Both sides scared of losing rather than aiming to win. You don't want Bayern Oddy? The whole of Germany would stop and watch if they got to the final at their own place.

    Can't beat a novice hurdle as a betting prospect in my eyes.

    Champions League Final with Chelsea and Munich.

    Love to be in the marketing department brain storming session of the major sponsor's tomorrow morning..!

    Be hard to sell a guaranteed diazepam substitute.

    Seriously though,it would be boring if the best team/entity won all the time and we all love to cheer for the underdog...but,if one mentions Frankel getting beaten...it;s to the gallows,do not pass go!

    Strange how detachment works and the desire to join a movement without dissension...to glory hunt without fear of contradiction..(manu fans were farmed in test tubes for this for years)..

    I hope Frankel succumbs this year to an underdog...we are a nation that traditionally supports the unforseen at Wimbledon,Open Championship,Cup Final etc without a tangible affiliation...why is my desire any less?

    I hope Frankel loses to a legitimate pretender.

    The King is (may be) dead...long live the King!

    <whistle>
