    red - the novice chase and bumper were the 2 races that caught my eye at Huntingdon. I've also got a sneaking feeling for Hildisvini, can't say why though - just like the look of him today. In the bumper I am interested in another of Kris Kin's offspring, Empiracle. I think Kris Kin could turn in to a decent NH stallion and he has already had a couple of winners in the jumps sphere this year. Be interesting to see how Empiracle goes today.

    BTW nice little article here on horses to follow in the jumps season.

    Gordon Elliot talks about Mount Benbulben's chase debut tomorrow here. I wouldn't pick a fight with Gordon mind you.

    Two slices of Hot and Spicey Domino's pizza left over from last night and a glass of V8 juice.

    Morning chaps :)
    Joined in The Last Night plunge, albeit at a miserly 7-2.
    I have also got a sentimental ew (hoping for a resurgence of last seasons 2 wins) in the same race on Drumlang, owned by a footballing quartet.
    Tour D'Argent looks made but not at a working man's price. And even less so if you aren't working! <laugh>

    Now then Oddy, you might have found one there with Empiracle... Jeremy Scott has a 7 starts 6 win record at Huntingdon this year, so Empiracle must have a great chance on that stat alone...!!!


    On the lunch theme ive finished off the ham hock from last nights tea with hot english mustard, tomato on a granary barm... delish...!!!

    First one up for the day. ROTO's selection The Last Night...<ok>
