    Nice work Flying Bantam.

    Elliott with another monster in a bumper, that was a very talking performance from Gerri Colombe, beating another point winner impressively. Spoiled for choice that yard are, almsot got too many good ones, fair play to the lads in the big yards, some operation to handle all of that.

    Don't expect me to repeat that each week! My best week by far for a while, had a tasty treble too.
    Eileendover looks some talent, only a 4 year old and hasn't been asked a question yet. Maybe the Mares Bumper at Aintree rather than Cheltenham? Wherever she runs I'll be backing her.

    That's more or less what she said. Stated she isn't a fan of Cheltenham and maybe Aintree was where she would go, I suppose if they are to look after her, it would be the wiser choice perhaps, given the flatter track etc.

    So then, team, do we now feel that Nicky is back in form?!? Normal service resumed and all that??? 4 out of his last 6 runners have obliged.

    After a brief discussion via private messaging, we the forum have decided that it had to be 6 wins from 6 to be deemed to be back in form. We wrote at length to the man himself, and whilst we cannot divulge the information mentioned, the crux of the matter was that he MUST TRY HARDER.

    Hope the carrots are not being too thinly sliced at home ol'chap, take care.

    Do agree that 4 out of 6 does indicate standards are slipping. But maybe its you the forum who expect too much of Nicky???

    He may improve on that figure of 67% though as on Monday (if the meets go ahead) the forum’s favourite trainer could be set to hand Dame de Compaignee her fencing bow and Santini’s little half-sister her debut. Exciting times.

    Haven’t had the thickly sliced carrots for almost 3 years now. Have moved jobs and the food is much more blander (although that’s somewhat obsolete, as well, what with everyone working from home at the moment).

    Just read that Ardlethen & Espion were both fatally injured when brought down at the last, a tragic incident. Add Mohaayed and it's a poor day for the sport. Thoughts with all connected to the 3 horses. RIP.
