    I had a dabble at the 7-2 Beefy. Too good to miss. Trusting Pipe that he will be trying!

    Indeed Stick lol I had to look twice at the price, it did seem very fair to me! I think we'll know our fate before the off if it starts to drift badly on the exchanges <whistle>

    It's Sunday night so we know what that means. I need three more touchdowns in the Cowboys game.

    How did you go Y'day Beefy..?...great days action in stinking weather but a good turnout...I waited until The Errigal and the BC to crank up the soup...took me a few hours to dry out!..4am job after that.

    Hi Dex! Aye had a great day! Yeah the weather was pretty stinking but we knew it was going to be like that, actually think it wasn't a bad thing as the crowds were more manageable than they have been in recent years. Ended up backing in 5 races, losing the first 3 but ended up winning the 'Paul Nicholls race' and the bumper so ended up decently after a slow start! Mt Benbulben finishing would have been nice though as I'd a decent each way one on him. Missed Ruby's winner, seems like we were about the only ones who didn't have it but we had a reasonable excuse- we were off backing Long Run in his annual first time out defeat at the time <laugh> Of course the funny thing is one of the guys we were with who'd never been at the races before ended up backing Roi du Mee in the big one!

    Very taken by Rolling Aces, I think he'd have seen off Argocat if he'd been joined. Seems a horse who it may be hard to get to the bottom off...

    How you fare up, though it sounds like you may have been one of those who spend the day in the bar rather than braving the inclement weather outside <laugh>
