    Yes you can modify your own posts but if someone quotes your original posts using the reply mode I do not believe that changing the original post will affect that. Correct me if I am wrong. I can easily change one of mine and see if it changes it where someone has replied to me.
    I also believed that when you changed your own post it shows when you changed it....or else anyone could cheat in competitions!

    As it stands we are saying that fusion changed his own post after he was made to look totally ****ing stupid.

    Tony Martin was fined and jockey Patrick McGuigan banned retrospectively after the running of Pyromaniac at Killarney yesterday evening. The stewards were not happy with the effort shown by jockey and horse and also suspended the horse for 42 days meaning he's ruled out of his targets at Galway.

    That's one handicap Martin won't be winning. Stewards starting to wise up....

    Also for OddDog. Hidden Cyclone will be entered in the Amateur handicap, The Galway hurdle and the Plate at the festival.

    Paddy Mullins quoted as saying "he rode like a 4 year old and needed that run and should improve a lot for it"

    Cheers Mick, I have been as honest as I possibly could be about him. Fingers crossed he runs to his best form today but we are slightly concerned.
    It seems that the gamble of the race is NEW ABBEY ANGEL....LOL. That beast is 5lb higher than when it won here in February but the yards gambles don't often go astray. God I hope it doesn't beat us!

    Morning, team. I’m sat with a tear in my eye at the min, I’m afraid. And it’s not because the steward has put too much T in my mid-morning GnT. It’s Mr Cameron’s last day in office. The end of an era. On behalf of everyone, and I do mean everyone, on the forum may I say, ‘Thank you, Mr Cameron, for your outstanding service and dedication to duty. You are leaving Number 10 but you will forever remain in our hearts. The very best to you and the lovely, and I do mean lovely, Sam.’ Who knows what the future may (pun intended) hold but I will say that after 13 years of despair, Mr Cameron, you brought hope and after 13 years of darkness you shined a light.

    Nothing for me and I’m sure my regular readers will be supportive of me flying the ‘no bet’ banner at half-mast today.

    Good luck with Buzz though, chaps.

    Purely because there is absolutely nothing wrong with his work mate.
    We are only going to find out if his "attitude" has changed by running him today and as its a track and surface he has run well on before we will get to find out what is going on with him.

    Definitely like the look of The Way You Dance, 1.45 at Uttoxeter.
    Also like the chances of Sciarra, 2.25 at Lingfield

    Good Luck to all.

    Hope today's outing for Buzz is informative, Stick.
    Sorry to read of your not too pleasant trip to Chester.

    As long as he comes home safe/sound is all that matters mate. Win or lose today hopefully you will find out a little more about him in preparation for his next race. He and Squire WILL win you races. Yourself and the other guys on here give exceptional info/tips/selections but you don't tell me that I should put my life savings on, I only put on what I can afford to lose. I don't contribute much if anything really as I don't get info only pure guesses but I do love sponging yours and other peoples selections for good reason. Once again the forum has been banging out the winners of late including the last couple of days so thankyou to you all, keep em coming and Stick take no notice of what others think or say.

    All the best with Buzz today Guy's
    LadCrooks :bandit: are the worst of a bad lot mate!

    Hugh Taylor(ATR), who I also follow has gone for Gabster in the race, hence the money for her 13/2 into 7/2.
    "GABSTER is still a maiden, but she has plenty of form on an artificial surface that suggests she’s better than a class 6 performer, and she should make her presence felt dropped to 0-60 grade for the first time in the 1m2f handicap at Lingfield (5.15).
    She ran well behind Tenzing Norgay, who had won his previous start by five lengths, despite being stuck behind the two remaining horses in the race round the home bend, over 1m4f here two outings ago, and her three previous efforts when runner-up all also read well in the context of this race.
    She didn’t cut much ice on soft ground in a 0-75 event last time, but the return to a synthetic surface and the drop to a 0-60 event might see her in a different light."

    Win singles on each & R/F for me
    Good Luck

    Just had a small ew double on Buzz and Squire. No price on Paddy's for Squire yet so just SP for that one.

    And on a completely different subject I'm extremely happy to see the back of David Cameron but not too pleased to see Theresa May in charge. Hope she proves me wrong but my future job security just got a lot less secure with her in charge

    Best of luck with Buzz today. I have already backed POWER UP in the race but may have a little saver on Buzz. Let's hope he comes back safe and sound and does you proud!

    One other I like the look of at Lingfield is GIVE US A BELLE (e/w) in the 3.35 whilst tonight, at Sandown, it's all bout OLYMPIC RUNNER for me in the first.

    Oddie, a genuine and I will add sincere question in light of an exchange we are both aware of.

    Does the second part of your answer to Stick's question apply to all forum posters equally? and what do you consider unacceptable ?

    I don't think an exchange with regard this question should hi-jack the daily thread so please feel free to PM me your reply if you would like to.
