Just for starters

Top Novice hurdler. Is there a more exciting prospect in this sphere than Samco. We won't know until he's raced against On The Blind Side

Sprinting. Will Australian champ Redzel come over to Ascot to take on our best

Winx history? Winx is on 22 consecutive wins. Can she achieve, or even surpass, the legendary Black Caviar who holds a record of 25 consecutive wins?

Frankie Dettori. Will he have to choose between Enable and Cracksman if they should compete in the same race(s)? If so, which one will he choose?

Will Faugheen race again?

Can Frankel get an English classic winner?

Isnt Samcro going chasing after a season novice hurdling? Looking forward to seeing him though.

Cant see Frankie deserting Enable.

Faugheen - think its the end sadly.
 
I'll see your Samcro and raise you Apple's Shakira <ok> Pleeeeeeeeeeze send her to the Supreme JP

This time last year Native River had already won the Hennessy and Welsh National, he would go on to take the Denman Chase and finish a fine 3rd in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. This year he will (hopefully) head to the festival a fresh horse and can take steeplechasing's blue riband.

Agree with the above. Samcro looks very very exciting, Faugheen looks done and can not beat the champ. Native River for the GC i can see that. Frankie and that dilemma...spin a coin.
Will Stick train on and provide anothet year of bumper winners?

Samcro will always be a favourite purely because of Sons of Anarchy!

That was probably over most heads Chelsea, but my favourite TV series ever and I include Deadwood in that.

Explanation: Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Originals

If you never saw it then check out the box sets on Netflix or whatever you have ... 7 seasons of excellence <ok>

Edited for accuracy!

Think Samcro comes from Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original - loved that show. Up there with Breaking Bad and WestWorld <cheers>

Predictions:

Faugheen to bolt up in the Champ Hurdle, Min to win the Champ Chase and the ‘forgotten’ horse Our Duke to win the GC. Apples Shakira to win everything!!

Happy 2018 all!!
 
Five weeks of Saturday night ecstasy in the company of TinTin, Gilou and Laure!

<laugh> Stick is no 2-year-old, and has 'trained-on' for many years now. His bumper winners, and other successes, will continue, for sure.
 
Goodness me, I doubt that, Cyc! <yikes>

Note to Reebok: For once in my life kept the lemonade to a minimum this festive season; feel much better for it today!

Apples Shakira is seemingly in everything bar the Boat Race. It’s madness even trying to predict where that operation will send an animal so I think all anyone can do is guess until final decs time. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Henderson, the forum’s favourite Lieutenant, will have absolutely zero input so don’t ‘zone in’ on anything he says re the matter between now and mid-March. And don’t just concentrate on who they currently have in the relevant races, re a clue where Apples Shakira could go, as they are oft inclined to purchase a wodge of fancied horses between now and the Festival – so the final string could differ, I say differ, from the current squad.

Don’t forget though, team, that the operation do have history re sending an exceptional 4YO to the Supreme – Binocular back in the day.
