FJ Festival Yankees

#YoungAndFearless OR dumb :triumphant:

Nowt wrong with that Kev, (young and fearless, not the other bit), better than being old and scared of your shadow, plus fortune favours the brave, so go for it, good luck, let me just grab your coat tails
 
I'm tempted, but I'd be worried of letting the squad down.

Will certainly chip in and follow though
 
Mr M - it was too easy to find, page 3 of the festival forum lol.
I found mine too, didn't post that.....

Sounds like we haven't got much to live up to :devilish:

I am surprised in all honesty and would have more faith backing horses selected by some of these guys before my own selections :) regardless of last years!
 
Keep the faith Kev, anything can happen at Cheltenham mate :encouragement:

:encouragement: in all things DYOR
 
:highly_amused:It was tongue in cheek, a back handed compliment if you will.

For anyone reading, that might think the vetrans on here are about to be usurped
 
Good luck to those selected, I will await your selections and will provide input to the debate.
 
I think we'll recognise Kev if his yankee comes in, he'll be the one caught on camera running round the stand with his underpants on his head
 
Looking forward to these. :encouragement: More than happy to put my name forward but having done the Win yankee others can go ahead of me, looks like there's plenty of people up for this already
 
Will the person choosing the bet just have to pick from all of the suggested horses?

Pretty much Jono.
It's very much a discussion thread so if the manager has a view about a certain horse then he should post this so everyone can comment and if there's general agreement it can be considered.
Nothing to stop managers simply picking 4 of their own fancies but many will be having the bet so there needs to be loose agreement by all, managers decision is final though....
 
Thanks for everyone who volunteered, more interested bodies than yankees so unfortuantely a few don't get to call the shots but thanks for stepping up, there's always another yankee just round the corner !
Look forward to everyone contributing and coming up with a lifechanger or two...
