Disappointing lack of commitment when meeting fellow forumites... ...

[Odin]

Feels like every clerk is petrified of watering all of a sudden in case the rain comes and destroys the ground through the winter. Obviously I get that...

[Odin]

Find this a reasonably surprising comment in all honesty.

In the last seven years, there have been two dual winners (energumene and altior)...

For info, Henderson comments on RTV paraphrased:

Wasn't himself when saddling him up, like saddiling a lion but then fine when Nico got on....

Indeevar Blue at Ayr last year entered the chat ...

[Odin]

Thought it was a good performance as well. Looks like Challow the aim - sounds like he's more of a Bartlett than a Supreme horse...

"You...

[Odin]

Really hope these aren't a sign of things to come with WTAFs as both are garbage prices there!...

[Odin]

Thank you sir. ITV done me dirty yesterday!

The lack of penalty must be a new rule after Henderson kicked up a fuss a few...

[Odin]

Over the course of the day, those are the details I've picked up - with the caveat that I was working at the time so may have misheard something. Happy...

Yep, loses his novice status to my knowledge. Also has a winners penalty next time out.

Great post Exar, but I thought the 2m Grade 1 had only been downgraded to a Grade 2, rather than removed?

Your point about extremely limited...

[Odin]

Thank you both

[Odin]

Sorry mate, just to confirm:

He's deleted a tweet which said all was fine (i.e. there is likely to be a problem)

This.

I genuinely can't think of another logical explanation for today's comments ...

I had the Mullins battalion mapped out as:

Gaelic: Clonmel Oil, King George, Ascot Chase/DRF 2m Grade 1, Ryanair

I actually thought Fact To File made more sense - 7 lifetime runs at the age of 7. Thought he could do Tramore, DRF, Festival, but couldn't marry that...

[Odin]

Always thought one of Fact To File or Galopin would go to Tramore on New Years Day. Doesn't sound like that's gonna happen - fairly sure I read somewhere...

[Odin]

Yeah, sorry - I actually don't mind the novice ones. You can only rate them on the performance they give at the time which is based on the opposition...
