    Not really, but this was the day of attivo's first Daily Racing Thread in his trademark style.

    Here's a question. In all this time, how many days has attivo missed?

    Whatever the answer, it is some achievement. Well done mate. <applause>

    Is that date in your personal archives of your not606 postings?

    His effort is amazing- well done Attivo and thanks.

    Talking of effort, how would people feel if we dropped a couple of 'Under The Spotlight' articles when the National Hunt starts like we did a couple of years back?

    Or just a 10 to follow thread?

    I don't think I have tipped a winner since the Stickwise daily tip was curtailed!
    Top work Attivo and nice to see it is not taken for granted.

    It is top work and dedication, thank you and long may it continue Attivo! As others have said, if you get to a racecourse on the same day as me, you have a pint waiting for you (and Stick/Oddy can tell you how rare a drink from me is!!!)

    Attivo seems to have been raising the daily thread longer than HM the Queen has been on her perch ... so we should have an Attivo 'celebration day' .... and it feels like this is it .. and I would guess 2 days missed Ron ? ... the Attivo Day plus the SBC Luncherama Awards should be enshrined in Not606 history as UK holidays ... many thanks Attivo - much appreciated and ale is waiting in Chester for you !!!

    I'd echo the appreciation - it really is some effort.

    As for Toppy's comment, I would have thought that the more threads about specific horses or yards the better - and if some smart arse now takes that as a cue to do an individual thread about every horse currently entered in the Cambridgeshire they'll get a cyber clip round the ear!

    Fantastic work attivo and thankfully the murmurs of discontent subsided!

    Stickwise I concur and am poorer for it! <grr>

    To think, I got you a drink at Chelts and you met Stick (I think that's who you are attempting to describe) on the same day!!!

    I don't think attivo has missed many days at all, but just looking back over the last 12 months it looks like 7 days have been missed apart from today. These being.

    15th 2015 July Ron
    30th June 2015 You See
    25th Jan 2015 Top Class
    4th jan 2015 BeeforSalmon
    9th Oct 2014 OddDog
    27th & 29th Sep 2014 OddDog

    A very impressive record by attivo and may he keep it going.

    I don't think David Pipe would be sending 2 horses on a near 920 mile round trip to Perth if he didn't have much of a chance of a winner. However surely he should be looking at a double.

    7.10 BORDER BREAKER 11/4
    7.40 SKYLANDER 11/4

    Singles and a 13/1 double
