- Itv panel - what do you fancy:- Ruby - Willie's AP - JP's Matt - Fav Mick - Nicky's Would be lovely to have a form man on.

- Where did the creature on the far side come from? A previous race?This €50,000 contest goes the way of Mindsmadeup who stays on strongly for @Robbie_Power_ & Matthew Smith at @Galway_Races Results & free replays ➡ racingtv.com/results
00:00 - Replying to @tnewtondunnWhat abt people who started a business in the last 18 mths or so & haven't filed a return or did one for a partial yr thus a v low income for that year? What abt gig/ 0 hours workers, esp those who earnt min wage. Expected to live on 80% of that?
- Fav and 3rd fav for Grand Natl have won the 4m NH Ch. 5 of top 12 in betting ran have run in the race. The 2018 exacta was made up of 2 previous rnrs of the race. I know what you're all thinking, how come there are not more 4m amat rider novice chases?
- Keep hearing abt Pic D'Orhy in Triumph Hurdle so I got my old standard times out for Auteuil (I used to practically live there during my 5 years in France). Best racecourse on earth. Anyway, he hit an 83 on fastish gng which is 6 lengths faster than Farclas in '18. He is v good.
- Henderson wins the Champion Hurdle, Nicholls wins the Champion Chase, McManus wins the hcaps, JJ Codd wins the amateur races & Mullins wins the bumper. What a waste of my time all this speed figure crap is.
- Replying to @Lowkey0nlineI’m Welsh and I haven’t spoken to a single Welshman since who doesn’t believe Iran were much better than us. They 100% deserved to win.
- Auteuil Grand Steeple weekend in May Eurostar £120 (Friday to Monday) Hotel x 3nights £260 Entry to both days at Auteuil £13. Metro to the track each day £2 Proper effort.
- If you live in the London area, it will much cheaper to go to Auteuil for the Grand Steeplechase de Paris than to Cheltenham for a day. Train/entrance etc. Just saying.
- I put the trap 6 as a 7/2 chance. Nice to see the little'uns are learning the right stuff in school.My class hated me when they realised the answer 🤣🤣🤣
- Replying to @KeejayOV3Just meaningless theatre. “80% of the media” “10x more important” - made up & groundless numbers. A advertising exec with no obvious political values or ideals has become a celebrity panto villain who doesn’t even realise that he’s outlived his purpose, pining for recognition.
- A defence of betting on racing. Gambling by its nature isn't responsible. Its gambling. Racing has prospered & exists for most as a betting medium. Without betting racing becomes private trials, betting provides the derivative that allows people to buy an interest in the sport.
