    Quite like the look of Changing Times to beat Molotof here. Small dabble on the s/f.

    Incredible ride from AP Molotof jumped horribly. Runner up made one costly mistake

    Sounds like Molotof showed a nice attitude there to get back up once headed - he'll need to go to Yogi for more schooling though

    Indeed Ron...Wycombe had 200 of the 39,000 fans in attendance there...no need to remind you of the score..though I hope Wycombe do well this season for you.

    My first two picks both placed though the dividends were predictably only 1.10 even on a 5/1 shot ridden by Hayley Turner whom I notice has been jocked off for Richard Hughes in the Breeders Cup on Saturday.

    I notice they have backed my 4.30 Taunton pick into a short priced favourite now ousting Nicholls horse.

    Let's hope he delivers though no investments from me today!

    Yeah sure did was classic McCoy though becuase Molotof made more jumping errors and still managed to win it at the end so the horse showed a great attitude and in fairness the 2nd did also.

    How many times has a horse purely won a race due to the genius that is AP McCoy....we have all lost count and yet another Champion Jockeys title is on it's way !

    Which 5 horses are everyone looking forward to seeing most this coming season.....mine are Sprinter Sacre,Big Bucks,Grand Crus,Hurricane Fly and Binocular again !

    You do have to feel a little bit sorry for Dicky Johnson though - very committed and talented jockey but the perennial bridesmaid behind AP.

    Indeed OddDog.....Richard Johnson is, undoubtedly, the greatest jockey never to have been Champion...though even he never hopes that AP is injured to miss a whole season so as he can take advantage of it !

    I'm sure he will persevere and Richard Hughes has finally achieved it on the Flat ...so one season in the future who knows ?

    Graham Lee has more than held his own since switching to Flat racing and will continue to fire in the winners.

    What price Hughes makes 200 winners this season ?
