Not to make this into the baseball thread, but 1 run needed to tie, Big Dumper in next, Rodriguez swinging at ball 4 is just hilariously painful and I needed to share that
 
Would like to think

Mets ta Ceinture (Lyon 2.22) will be very difficult to beat if reproducing her form of her last run @ EVS.

Have played Dream Shadow - Uttox 12.25 @ 11/4 in a roll up tomorrow

Was debating taking 20/21 T3 but have gone a touch greedy

Form was franked today and Fergal running @ 21% strike rate last 14 days

I stayed up all night.

Absolutely heart breaking.
 
Jamada 5/6 in the opener at Plumpton look perfect roll up material today, used with Fact to File (Ryanair) to create a near 11/2 shot....
 
Using Chuggy in the 3:02 at Warwick tomorrow in a roll up or two

Skelton home track and I think this is one which will reel off a few wins on the bounce this year. Won first time over fences LTO first run of the season after not trying over hurdles so had a mark of 100 and is up to 106 here and hit the line hard.

Breeding is very nice, half brother to both The New Lion and Kateira so Skelton knows how to train the family.
 
Il Etait Temps 'should' be winning the 2:57 Clonmel today and give a little 2/5 boost to any price. Main rival in the betting is Gentleman De Mee though he is a much better horse in the New Year. His record in the 2nd half of the year reads: 52U46257 (0/8) as opposed to 6/16 in the first 6 months which also includes his top 8 RPRs. 3rd in the betting is Intense Raffles, though this trip is surely on the short side and his season will be geared to getting his handicap mark down for another tilt at the National you feel.

Il Etait Temps showed he stayed well at Aintree and he has a fantastic record when fresh. Cheltenham doesn't seem to be his track, his record away from there outside his juvenile season (When it all felt like getting experience) reads 1212121111 with his only defeats coming against Gaelic Warrior and Facile Vega (twice). His record first time up again away from juvenile year reads 111 so it would be disappointing if he wasn't fit enough to take this.
 
I reckon it'll be tough going for him. He may still win but they've had a lot of rain there and it's over further than he likes. He's no certainty.

His 2nd best run according to RPR came over 2 1/2m on soft ground at Aintree. Soft ground would hardly help Gentleman De Mee either. In fact Intense Raffles, if wound up for his first start could well prove to be the biggest danger in my book if getting an uncontested lead.

A little easier than I thought!! 😂

Absolutely bolted up didn't he.
 
Wouldn't be surprised if he turned up in the king George to be honest

Going Tingle Creek. Ate the Sandown track last season. Think he'll send Jonbon down the Ryanair route.
