Interconnected seems to have moved from Dan Skelton to Phil Kirby. Going to have to win a good few Catterick handicaps to make a dent in that ?620k...Comment

Listening to the Nick Luck podcast this morning conjured some thoughts and made me recall the Tuesday of this year's Festival (well...tangentially) http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-...l92q2lymc2usrlComment

Given that Skelton won less than ?5k running around Huntingdon, Bangor and Uttoxeter, I imagine that a Catterick handicap win would be welcome.Originally posted by Atlantic Viking View PostComment

Racecourses and Bookmakers have made a complete mess of British Racing's finances and our on-course experience.Originally posted by Bayoffreedom View Post

I know I'm a doom monger on the subject, but I've never more acutely felt that racing is on a path to obsolesce. But with far less external pressure than I presumed would bring it about.

Agreed robithOriginally posted by robith View Post
Those controlling racing (not the neutered BHA) are self-serving groups, thinking about today, only, with no plans for tomorrow.
I absolutely hate to think it, but.....
I wouldnt be surprised if the sport we love ends up in the same financial state, and becomes.....
Greyhound Racing 2.0.
Then the racecourse owners/groups may have to start selling the land off for housing in some places.
I hope I'm wrong and those parties can get their acts together quickly.Last edited by Saxon Warrior; 22 July 2022, 09:32 PM."Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".Comment

Anyone's 365 account constantly going to traders for approval? Wonder if my account has been flagged or something.Comment

I had it for the first time the other day when putting on an antepost treble, then again for another, but not for a double. Stake/liability was typical for my account.Originally posted by HoldenTheReins View PostComment

i generally find referred to a trader is the beginning of the end for an account, if you really value it i would leave it alone for a while until you drop of the radar, maybe have a few nonsense punts on greyhounds or slotsComment

When do the individual race threads usually start to appear? As someone who joined the forum early last season, the forum was already in full flow by the time i joined. TIAComment

Going though the old threads most were started in Oct about the time of Chepstow's 1st (2 day) NH meeting.Comment

It's been discussed before but I'd be very much against individual threads for any but the open championship races until at least Christmas. Last season, the amount of duplication on the various novice threads was eye-watering and, in the end, I didn't bother reading them.
A individual thread for Champion Hurdle, Stayers Hurdle, Champion Chase, Ryanair, Gold Cup plus a single thread for all novice and juvenile hurdles, another for all novice chases, another for the Bumper and one for all handicaps is absolutely all that is needed until 2023.Comment
