16:15 Hexham - Cloudy Dawn (Could go well in this weak-looking affair? 13/2 with Coral will have a wee dabble methinks).
Good afty gents... A couple that like i today, and both from Fontwell... 3.15 - Fountain Flypast, 5/2 Ran well lto, but unseated his rider when well in contention, that being his first run after a break. So i can see him improving better for that run... 4.25 - Rey Nacarado, 11/4 Charlie Longsden is well in form at the moment and brings Rey Nacarado back out for his first run since march. Has won before over the hurdles on reappearance and i think will take all to win this... Good luck to all who have a play today... ps- 'Hey, i'lll have a babycham...' Wasnt that the catch phrase for that drink back in the 80's...??? Didnt know it was still going...
Not backing Absolutelyfantastic in the opener at Gowran Park because the price isn't what I expected. I will be backing ReyNacarado though in the 4.25 though at 3/1
Anybody else had that when a horse's name puts a song in your head? 2.35 Gowran "and you'll be doing the Boxer Beat, Boxer Beat" - god I'm showing my age
Oddy - as long as you dont get out your doc martins and start slamming your feet on tables, doing the Boxer beat then i think your over it...!!!
Just had to google the year red, it was 1983 . I remember hearing it on the bus down to Highbury for the semi-final of the cup against Brighton
Boxer Beat,Babycham,Doc Martins....we're going all retro today. Red,I don't remember the "Hey,I'll have a babycham...."..advertising line...you sure it's not your own!...
Half of the Newmarket racing community has just walked past my office en route to Tattersalls for Michael Jarvis' wake. RIP
Thx Oddy... He needed every bit of the 2m2f and a bit... Mr Harmoosh pushed him all the way... <phew>
Dex - Yeah ive got a drink problem... Them Babycham bottles arnt very big... you can soon down a dozen of em before you know it... hic...!!! <Laugh>
Red...me too although I haven't had anything to drink since last night! Nice winner at Fonty,she gave it a good ride tbf after the unseating LTO.
I liked the look of Oceana Gold this morning, but im changing my mind now... I like the Hobbs runner Exalto... Oh well ive done my money... Lets hope...
