Looks like the slightly later start paid off for Gordon at Fairyhouse over the weekend, coming away with 7 winners and narrowly denied it being 8 by Marine Nationale.

It will be interesting to see how that now carries over for the Christmas period and then on to the Spring festivals.

A question I may have asked before but I can't remember.

Is there a race at the festival you've never had a winner in?

I have never backed the winner of the Coral Cup

What a depressing way to spend my Monday lunch break!
RSA, Stayer's and County Hurdle for me although there are far too many races that I thought I hadn't won only to find something from 7 years ago that I may have backed :eagerness:
 
Has anyone heard anything about Barry The Butcher? Stable tour said they were looking to start him off around the end of November, doesn't have any entries that i've seen yet.

The Grand Annual, the race has given me many sleepless nights over the years.
0-35.

Also never managed the winner of the now defunct 2m 4f Novice Handicap Chase.

But I stop short of any wrist slitting thoughts by reminding myself that I will have backed several winners of Festival races that many in here won’t have heard of, including a 3m 4f handicap hurdle that I don’t think they’ve run for 30 years…

Also the Grand Annual for me. I’ve backed a few winners in the race, just in the wrong year :biggrin-new:
 
I thought I was on the longest come-down ever, jesus christ, good to be back:watermelon:
 
It's still showing code for me when trying to load the page but think we're back:indecisiveness:
 
Two of the only three websites I use had some considerable downtime this weekend (Hattrick online football manager the other). Thank God for BBC news or I'd have had to talk to the wife.
