sup George? Problems with tinternet? Dunno if you spotted it - there was a shout for King's Trail in the 9pm at Dundalk. I'm hoping it can save me from a bad day!
Reebs got a new job away from home and where i am living there's no internet so I've been itching to get on here since Tuesday haha. Back for the weekend now though . Managed to see the first 4 races at Cheltenham today too
Just watched the replays from Cheltenham. Cracking days racing as always. Thought Dynaste did it very well, looked like a reincarnation of Grands Crus. Not sure we saw the best of Fingal Bay today and TBH I think he already wants further. Couldn't believe that Mullins horse in the x-country - clattered nearly every fence but still hosed up. Well done ROTO on Swing Bill - I also had him in the tipping comp so that kept me in touch with the leaders. Cracking weekends racing coming up. loving it
Evening Oddy - agreed about the weekends racing, and looking forward to see what Unaccompanied can do on Sunday. I don't expect her to beat the Hurricane, but hope she runs well and that they don't thrash her chasing a lost cause. I'm sure one day the stables collective penny will drop and they'll find her a good race where she DOES have a chance!
All about Go Native for me on Sunday Reebs - had an e/w nibble at 25s for the champion hurdle. Difficult to tell from flat races but I think he could come back better than ever
I've done really well out of her I must say ................... and she is still so young. I'd be looking at the flat cup races with her

Good day out at Chelts though my investments were a bit like Arsenal - look good enough and promised much for a long way but ultimately failed to deliver. Dynaste was impressive in the opener though I really liked the look of Unioniste. Only 4 yo, jumped well and will be very useful in time I've no doubt. Big unit too. Old boy Hello Bud run a smashing race first time out in the x country before tiring late on. I'm not that arsed with this type of race usually but going into the middle of the course makes it a fine spectacle. I was stood at the first fence and as they came over first time Davy Russell let out a massive yeeehah to much amusement. He then had the crack with the crowd on the next 2 occasions they jumped the fence though well detached from the rest. I was astonished that he ended up staying on into 4th. So a great day as ever but average financial return. But still beats the absolute **** out of working on a Friday!
