I took Idle Talk £1 e.w. at 16/1, I have since changed my mind and want to do L'ami instead, but don't want to change horses in mid stream lol.

Also a friend has a 'really good feeling' about a horse named Gallant Approach and the last time he had he had such a feeling Royal Athlete romped home at 50-1, mind you this nag is out at 100-1 so it a long shot to say the least

Not so much as a penny Point Barrow fell at the first fence. Not fit for dog food. Numbersix could have stayed in the stable.

I bloody know, first time I have won nothing for literally decades and it could've been worse, when I came out of the bookies some council jobsworth was trying to get my car removed! Apparently 'your not allowed to park here on market day'
