    Ha yeah - I remember being part of that FJ movement backing York myself. Not quite as good as the Kabongo Tschimamga bet. I’ll never recover from that.

    2027 The Prices on Offer

    Yeah did it well enough, wasn’t a steering job and had to be asked to win it but did it comfortably and put the race to bed nicely Great spot and cheers for getting your mate to request that @ComplyOrDie

    2027 The Prices on Offer

    Given prices being cut already and so quickly, I've had a double with Corals at 356/1 given the price of MDP vs other bookies. MyDaddyPaddy 20/1 Champion Hurdle (stand out price Coral), as low as 12s elsewhere; and TNL 16/1 Stayers Pure panic and FOMO mode already

    March ‘26 Yankee courtesy of @Quevega.

    As put up on the other thread for next season's prices, this would fall into a Category 3 per @Eggs's ranking system The New Lion 33/1 (40s just gone from 365 annoyingly) for Stayers. A risk he might go chasing, but he looked one paced in the CH, so if they do stick to hurdles, this would be...

    2027 The Prices on Offer

    I welcome being shot down like a clay pigeon and being told I’m a mentalist… But 40/1 The New Lion for Stayers? I’m aware being targeted at CH this year and how he’s been campaigned means that’ll likely go again, but winning the turners over 2m5 last year, I watched this year’s CH and just...

    I've had a fairly dire festival - too much spanked early on Willie's novices last summer which have turned out to be shit (DDM main culprit...so watch him hose up today no doubt), missed a few big prices and not paying enough attention in key months...so it'll be a miracle to get into profit...

    2026 Champion Bumper

    Gordo potentially has one who has a bloody good write up in OJA and features in the top 40. Grangeclare Park at 16s (Hill) is definitely one I’m backing. Stable tour write up below…not a full guarantee he’ll stay in bumpers for the season but good enough for me. “We like this guy, especially...

    Another Triumph dart to throw in… Howard OJA top 40… Narciso Has - 14s as an alternative to Manlaga Strangely enough was a stablemate with Manlaga. Some notable quotes: ‘the Prix Wild Monarch, a conditions hurdle for unraced horses has produced State Man, Gaelic Warrior, Sir Gino and...

    October ‘25 Yankee

    Much as I’d like to think it’s something to do with me being captain 😂… it’s more a sign, speaking on behalf of forum - that we are all sick to death of the flat and eagerly waiting for the start of the NH season. I for one was refreshing to both see the selections AND for confirmation if...

    October ‘25 Yankee

    Yep - mine has landed this morning so will do a detailed dive Good news is that Doctor du Mesnil and Mydaddypaddy both in top 40. DDM name checked for turners and MDP for either race but as expected to be one of Skelton’s top novice hurdlers Manlaga is mentioned for the Triumph as was...

    September ‘25 Yankee

    Small follow on post......the above are the final selections and are not being changed. Full disclosure though, to be on the safe side personally, I have covered the same yankee with MDP in the Turners for much smaller stakes. I couldn't live with myself if that eventuality did happen.
