    I'm not afraid of saying I love something or someone so I'll go with love.

    Balance is always a good thing
    Which is why I had half a bag of opal fruits and half a bag of chocolate eclairs, after my tea.

    I consider you to be the chief defender of all things UK based and especially the "wet wipes of seven barrows", and long may it continue. It's admirable and another word ending in able.

    Just wondered what it would take for you to sway a little, that's all.
    Was a rubbish hypothetical question anyway, apologies for that

    I'll ask you again when something really happens.
    I like opal fruits as well, although not had any for years
    Not so keen on eclairs though

    Yeah, I do like Hendo, always nice and generous with his time at the Good Friday open day every year
    I also like how he cares so much about his horses, maybe too much sometimes I guess.
    I also understand that he can frustrate at times too.

    Anyway, let’s see what happens next week or so.

        I had a packet of fruit pastilles the other day and pulled my filling out so dread to think what damage a chocolate éclair would have done !

        • Old school fruit gums. Used to weld your teeth together for days.

            Once did mine on Fangtastics. It’s the ones you least suspect.

                  Great race, if they all stand

                    That'll ensure one of, it not both, Lossiemouth & Brighterdaysahead, will end up in the Mares Hurdle then.

                      I think there are very minor fitness concerns about State Man. If I was guessing, I'd say Lossie is there in case State Man isn't fit enough come Saturday. I can't see both running. I could be, and hope I am, very wrong.

                          • Jockey bookings will be interesting, don't see how you jump off the champ if you're Paul though.

                            Wouldn't mind a lossie to lose the morgiana and win the mares hurdle bet though if it ever got priced up

                              You can normally get a "not to win" market on 365. You could bet that then roll it on to the Mares, the price for which isn't likely to change too much in the immediate aftermath.

                              • Anyone see any early prices on Morgiana then flag on here.
                                They'll be awaiting jockey bookings.
                                Can't decide if I want Paul on Lossie or not as I want the bigger price, to add to the 7-2 antepost.
