Kid in bed, wood burner on, Steak n chips soon followed by sticky toffee pudding, few cans of Mulligans and the new Ricky Gervais special for me.

Beats going out standing 5 deep at the bar any day.
 
Glass of milk , custard cream and watching Jumanji for me. Never had it so good.

Just reading this. Had to stop watching RTC, entirely due to that smug runt Walsh. Am I missing much?
 
I like it when Ruby looks back over a race and takes you through it. But he gives hardly anything away about Mullins yard, and can’t remember him putting up to many winning bets pre race on Racing Uk for any race. In fact they are usually poor. I’ve not seen the recent road to Cheltenham, but previous ones he does look a bit pompous.
 
So a friend is at a wedding in Ireland and has been on a table with someone who works at Henderson yard.

Has been saying Lulamba is the banker of the festival....because KDB is out for the season and it's not been released to the public.


I know some on here have connections, is this drunken tales or is there some truth in it? Being kept until DRF isn't too different to last year so haven't been too worried about the absence yet.

Chatting shite I'd say.

Was due to run over Christmas but missed that due to an issue but is expected to be back for DRF last I heard.

Just seen the owner has tweeted a happy new year message about dreaming of the Arkle in 2026 FFS. Be really odd behaviour if he is as out.

For me Lulamba is the Banker of the meeting with or without Kopek. I was blown away by his Sandown run and if he can turn up in the same form at the Festival then he'll not be beat.

Thanks for passing on the Info though whether it be true or false. You are not to know.

Given that he's such a high profile horse, you'd imagine the only way that no word would get out is if only people very close to the horse knew he was out.

So if so many people know that it's reached some random bloke that works in Henderson yard, I dont know how there would be no rumours on here and twitter by now. So I'd guess it's just a drunken opinion being stated as if it's fact.
 
HF has been around for a very long time so I very much doubt he'd post anything on here that he didn't think was very close to the truth. Need to respect the fact he's passed this info on and said that perhaps it could be drunken talk. Take it or leave it guys.
