God I hate this thread and love it in equal measures.
My heart goes in my mouth every time I see a new post. And right now because of the previous Easysland post it's got me particularly jumpy.
On the other hand having a fast heads up to get out of a position is solid gold.Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more I sweat, the luckier I get.

Champion Bumper winner Ferny Hollow will miss this season's Cheltenham Festival after connections revealed he has suffered a suspected stress fracture.
Ferny Hollow had been second favourite at a general 10-1 for the opening race of the festival, the Sky Bet Supreme Novices' Hurdle, behind Royal Bond winner Ballyadam, who like Ferny Hollow runs in the colours of Cheveley Park Stud. He was also prominent in the ante-post market for the Ballymore Novices' Hurdle as a 14-1 shot.
Trained by Ireland's champion trainer Willie Mullins, the five-year-old led home stablemate Appreciate It in last season's Champion Bumper and made a winning start over hurdles at Gowran Park last month, beating the highly touted Bob Olinger – a bloodless winner at Navan on Friday – by a length.
Chris Richardson, managing director of Cheveley Park Stud, told Racing TV: "Ferny Hollow has a suspected stress fracture behind. Although nothing is immediately visible on his x-rays, that is often the case with a stress fracture and so we're treating it as such.
"Sadly, he will miss the Cheltenham Festival. We hope he might be able to make it back for Punchestown, but we will have to see. It's very frustrating but he's very special, so we're being conservative with him.""Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".
