Tomorrow is Cheltenham eve. Goosebumps with excitement now folks

Yup agreed, I really need this to be on (and over)...2 nights ago I dreampt that Alex Hammond had announced that Faugheen had been withdrawn and was now going for the Grand National and last night Desert Orchid was trying to get stuck across Annie Power at the start of the Mares Hurdle.

Good luck everybody and may all your loses be small and all your winners big buggers:encouragement:
 
At least you are sleeping. My sleep goes to pot for the week before.

Could be worse... At least it was Alex Hammond, and not Alice Plunkett :D
 
I have a pal working at the tracks and says its raining today and tomorrow. Fingers crossed its only light rain and heavy rain for the Fly fans. :)

I'm in the Fly fan camp LR, I'm heavily into Faugheen but would bring a tear to my eye if HF could do it, I'm not convinced that good ground is against him, I just think he's not as inconvenienced by soft as others are
