    I will try and find out some information. A friend of mine rides out at the Tizzards, not sure how privy to any whispers she will be. I will ask the question though.

    Thursday's racing thread

    This kept happening to me stick. I stopped telling him what I was backing and he still kept managing to back the same nag as me. In the end I told him I was backing something I wasn't at all and the winners came flowing back.

    Thursday's racing thread

    Yeah, just far too many entered at the moment. I was hoping there may be an interim scratchings stage and then could have a bit longer to look.

    Thursday's racing thread

    When are the next scratchings for the Tuesday at Cheltenham, starting to go over the handicaps and wondering if I should wait an extra couple of days?
