Woolie: Just in case you did not manage to see the race, here is a video clip. Orb did run an absolute stinker. The U.S. Triple Crown is really a tough one. Last one I can remember who did it was Affirmed in 1978 (ridden by Steve Cauthen, I believe). http://aol.sportingnews.com/sport/s...d=maing-grid7|main5|dl2|sec1_lnk2&pLid=315321
Unfortunately not, taking a breather from betting (till tomorrow probably, LOL), but very well done Stick, fine double. (Well, changing the subject, cannot remember a more ghastly season than this, and I've been a fan a hell of a lot longer than most. (Anyone know or heard of Wilf Heathcote, I do and have, and as a kid saw him score a few). All those 'stars'? Chuck the bloody lot out, bring back the guys loaned-out, and let them have a repeat go at the Championship League. Can't do any worse than this lot of sorry sods IMHO? Rant over, will feel better tomorrow, I'm sure!).
Look on the bright side Swanny, at least we wont be in a league next season where us and sixteen other teams know they cant win it!!!
Never a truer word, Stick, feel better already! So, we're about ready to watch the Sunday 'krimi' (Swedish) on TV. Man, they're a bloodthirsty lot. these Scandinavians!
Nice to see you're back in form Stick. Well done. Losing runs are like death - unavoidable. Fortunately we get a chance to come back from losing runs.
