Was on course when Defi won and was celebrating and suddenly remember the page loading "Kevin Blake say Le Richebourg is out for the season" and had a huge hello darkness my old friend moment
          hahahaha I feel ye

            Was a member called 'bitchy' a few years ago, wrote some incredible race previews, seem to remember him having one or two issues so hope he pulled through and is well.

            Old Vic may know where original members are...

                I'm afraid we may have lost Humble Pie.
                But I hope not.

                  • Can remember Tim Riggins writing that he was in a wheelchair.
                    To all our M.I.A. Jockeys. We hope your all sound and well.

                        • Re Arkle, Marsh and Ballymore I think Energumene (20/1), Asterion Forlonge (20/1) and Bob Olinger (10/1) is a decent EW bet. Pays 33/1 as a place treble and I expect all their prices to shorten significantly over the next 5 days.

                            Ah don't. I cried before watching his Queen Anne win before... that'll be too much for me at the moment. Far too emotional

                              Spent 25 mins going through and watching the clips, even i got Goosebumps watching that(flat does little for me) despite knowing exactly what was to happen. I can only imagine what social media would be like if he came along 10 years later.

                                Frankel winning the Guineas in 2011 came just after Long Run beat Kauto and Denman in that Gold Cup.

                                What an iconic couple of months for horse racing.... no wonder I got absolutely suckered in.
