    How the hell was Nichols Canyon 4/5 with Stan James earlier on, looked at monster price against a 4 year old mare <yikes>

    Some performance to do it that easily. World Hurdle beckons unless the Ricci superstars don't be back for March.

    Most interesting bumper horse seen this season yet in the last SAMCRO. No betting proposition today obviously but can't wait to see this monster roll. Cost a kings ransom after his point win when he easily beat the Tizzard horse who beat Laser Light yesterday so already seeing his point win was exceptional. This could be a monster lads, sit back and enjoy <cheers>

    Hardly enjoyable but won well enough. Poor ol Des Scahill got the short straw for commentary today.

    Well, 3rd is certainly better than 4th, so I'll take that!

    Samcro done that as easy as could be expected, (from what I saw)! He's going to be some horse over the winter, they've bought a right one there.

    You mightn't be alone there Chan, quarter race viewing isn't for me either! Hope the course done the decent thing and refunded patrons 75% of their admission to reflect the viewing situ ;)

    Des is a joke, least today he had good reason to make half it up for bantz...

    That's a kattanga-boom CHIEF - marvellous tipping <applause>

    I'd heard you were in the running for a top job in The Donald's cabinet (minister for digging) but it looks like you chosen the Turkish dig - has Erdogan made you an offer you couldn't refuse?

    ive got that Erdogan in my pocket oddy,i just keep him laughing by mentioning w Churchill.but seriously mate,its difficult finding the winners these days--I think this stupid matched betting has clouded my normal thinking.its getting harder to gain free bets---all the pesky students doing it have made bookies tighten their belts.

    Spot on Stick. If you look beyond football these islands have some outstanding sportsmen/women. The SPOTY shortlist will take some getting on to for sure.

    Football Chan? Joke innit mate! All the football idols on these shores these days are South Americans arent they?

    Hamilton might give him a run for his money if pulls the F1 title out of the bag, Although both have a huge anti-lobby!

    It's the soap opera around it all that leaves me cold. Footballer gets pissed in hotel, will this manager shake hands with that manager? There's a whole radio station (Talk ****e) dedicated to perpetuating this utter bollox.

    Brilliant. Contender for ‘post of the year’.

    On this subject Tom Segal wrote the other day that if Annie Power was in any other barn then in 2017 she’d be going for her 4th Champion Hurdle win – as she didn’t run in ’14 due to the trainer wanting to win it with Hurricane Fly and she didn’t run in ’15 due to him depending on Faugheen. He cites ’14 as the pivotal year because had she ran in it then (and he says she would have won easily) they would have been unable to re-route the defending Champ in ’15 and would have 'switched' Faugheen instead.
