  • Bryony Frost will miss the Grand National meeting next month with a broken collarbone

    Thoughts with Bryony and the ITV Racing family - how will they cope?!?!
  • Ed Chamberlain was quoted as saying 'Amazing'.

    Mind you he says that about everything.

    He is like a puppy at times.

    Ed's a great guy though - I actually gave him his first chance in the industry over 20 years ago (might even be 25).

  • Miranda, runs in the 4.15 at Wincanton tomorrow, Nicholls has his eye on a valuable race at Cheltenham in April, so she needs to do the business tomorrow, currently 13/8 with Bob’s lot
  • Good luck tomorrow Steve and hope you get to Cheltenham next month

    All the best @northstandsteve
    Cheering her on.

  • Race won by Commanche Red. 
    Should have predicted that!!! :grimace:
  • she was pulled up never looked like she was travelling, be interesting to see what Harry Cobden says, as Nicholls thought she would be better on the better ground.
  • Hope all is well with the horse Steve
  • Apparently she is fine and Cobden said the ground was too quick for her so he looked after her.
  • I'm off to uttoxeter tomorrow. Primarily it seems for a day of boozing, though I might dabble as well. Any tips?

    Only been to the horses once before, Newcastle, and found that overhearing elderly Irish people was a good tip, but not something I want to rely on!
  • Fran Berry has been forced to retire on Doctor's advice following his bad fall in January. 
  • That said, not too much takes my fancy today. Should be some good racing in the Grade 1s but both Klassical Dream and Min are too short (easily taken on by Quick Grabim and Un De Sceaux respectively though imo).
  • Klassical dream, min and delta work looks like the mug punters bet today always been a graveyard for punters so when I tend to stay clear of 
  • I fancy Getabird to turn Delta Work and A Plus Tard over

    Well would you look at that
  • Min busted the treble good old ruby saving the bookies as per, unbelievably I have never won a bet in the Mullins/Walsh/ricci combo 

    although fair play to uds - that was some performance. 
  • Ruby Walsh announces his retirement.
  • to bow out on your terms at 39 and winning all he has won fair play - not his fault and maybe its false hype but the ricci/mullins/walsh set up has gone on for too long. mug punters faults really, and maybe other jockeys do not get as many top rides as him but for me i can count numerous big falls on clear favourites. 
  • 00 seven yesterday was an unreal bet couldn't believe the price 18/1 on a horse being sent over with nico! only had £2.50 ew on it but better than a kick in the balls
  • defi de seul and josies orders double today looks a good bet - duc des geniveres although an arkle winner that is one of the weakest arkles i had seen for a very long time.

    Thought his prize money would of been higher than that.
