Some might argue their behaviour in that sense is corrupt, and given that many now sponsor trainers you have to assume they are always ahead of the rest of us…

I think william hill give you a chance to cash a ante bet once a month, i cashed a couple last year when cashout wasnt offered, by going onto the chat..its at that point when your in the middle of the chat that you realise you have no life

Bookmaking is corrupt at times, always has been."Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

Credit to Nigel for today's result.
I nearly joked before the race that Nigel will think he has the Champion hurdle winner if he ran well.
Then he goes and wins.
And is now talking about the Champion hurdle trial at Haydock then the big one itself
You have to love him.
Would have a better chance in the stayers, but still not really.

I haven’t heard anything, but I Don’t have a good feeling about Aspire Tower well being, and have decided cash out. Extremely strange he has no entries.
Would go back in once some news of his well being or he’s entered for a race, but don’t like the vibes

County hurdle however would be right up her street
The 3 runner race was a bit of a joke as nobody injected pace in the race at all. She did win the Grade 1 novice hurdle comfortably when there was more pace in the race (would also say was Grade 1 on paper only).

Stick her in the county and watch her win i say
