    Afternoon, troops. I’m sure, like everyone else on the forum, right now I’m mournfully lamenting re the appalling prizemoney at Newbury, this evening. Less than £31k for the entire card! Oh British racing what has become of thee!

    This eve actually sees racing at 2 of my most fave venues namely the above mentioned track in Royal Berkshire and a fixture at God’s own racecourse, Newton Abbot. Lovely to see a ‘Selling Hurdle’ back on the old agenda here and there are sure to be more plots than in an Agatha Christie novel contained therein. I must say though that the combination of the Pipe’s and a horse named after a Bond villain could be enough to see old boy Hugo Drax home. Certainly if Daddy Martin’s ‘magic fridge’ is employed there will be a lot more skulduggery than dear old 007 has ever seen!

    Nothing for me today after all that rambling but it’s interesting that Mr Henderson has kept Lieutenant Miller in Saturday’s ‘Richard Pitman’s Derby’ following yesterday’s latest entry stage. After the old boys heroics in the ‘Ascot Stakes’ if he’s brought out again so soon the hint should be taken as the only other time the horse has been turned out again within in an 11 day window he duly romped, I say duly romped, home.

    Good luck all.

    George: Usually a sad thing, but Mr.Dave C. doesn't seem to think so!

    What the heck, will put one up in this epic event - Green Lightning. Bred to stay the trip, but, other than that, not even the hosses know who's going to win this one?

    Hi Stick et al .... its really noticeable how the postings for the daily thread have fallen away ... I guess holidays may have a little to do with it but maybe it's because the majority of the contributors much prefer the NH to the Flat ... interesting to note the clear preference that most people display once Cheltenham has been and gone . I'm one of those that prefers the NH calendar to that of the Flat - NH always seems a little more 'real' to me and whilst I will have a punt on the flat it never captures my imagination as much as the jumpers does ...... What do others feel about the Daily Thread malaise ... ???

    Sole Danser in the last, think pace of race might collapse and he is a good closer who wasn't too far back in a race where the pace stood up at Bath lto. 6/1
