    Also we all know Gordon has always spoken of Envoi Allen in reverential terms, and still is,.....maybe, just maybe, he could go back.

    I am just happy to have the thought in my head for now, and leave it there.

    I just don’t see it happening, it would make cheveley look weak and possibly damage their relationship with hdb who would surely feel used by them should that happen.

    One of those four will possibly get injured or eklat could end up a national horse if not good enough. He could easily run three in the gold cup

      How about if Cheveley decided to send back all 8 of the horses they took away from Gordon?

        What would be the point?
        Like I said it makes them look weak and potentially ruins their relationship with Henry who already trains for them. They’ve made their decision I’d be shocked if they went back on it as much as I would like envoi to return to Gordon’s. Would they remove sir gerhard from willie’s too? I can’t see those two wanting to be used like a cheap holiday hotel.

            No but there's a big multi-yard one not a million miles from you this Sunday: https://www.maltonopenday.co.uk/

            Will be almost exclusively flat horses mind, so probably not what you were looking for!

            Edit: This might be of use. Brought up loads when I put in my postcode. Seems to be just for the next week or so though and loads are full.
            National Racehorse Week celebrates racehorse and lets you see first-hand the love, care and attention that goes into looking after them.

                  Only emails I get is when they are promoting something or a free bet has been credited onto the account.

                    On 'My Account' then 'Preferences' you can change it to not receive any emails on 365. You can remove these under 'My Details' on PP as well

                        I just had to look up Jilly Why Stormez. It feels a bit random so you must either be connected, or had some kind of punt and a large win?

                          Was going out with a girl called Jilly at the time Jilly Why ran & won at Chester. She won at decent odds so always followed her after that.

                              • I see Galvin has his first entry of the season in the Kerry National on the 22nd Sep. Has top weight so probably unlikely to run. Some familiar names in the race.
