Day 3!!

What's everyone looking forward to?! Without Cue Card and Rock on Ruby running I've got to try to win back the money I lost on them! Hope I have a better day than today!
 
I'm down £4 after today so hoping for some luck tomorrow too.

Also hope EKW has some luck :biggrin3:

Cheers Teapot!

RP predicter has Tap Night to be 2nd and Clondaw Knight to be 4th - I would happily take that any day of the week! Or if they switched places!

Safe out, safe in is more what I am hoping for!

I am about to head out on the town - hmmm! I'm not much one for going out! But I will be up and out to watch the gallops tomorrow!
 
Good luck EKW!

I'm working from home tomorrow so hopefully will get to see some telly coverage.

Have been enjoying 'The Morning Line' (lucky I can make up my work time at the other end of the day!) Love seeing the horses having a leg stretch and hearing RW's onboard commentary.
 
GOOD LUCK EKW! I've got a few £ on Clondaw Knight, hope they both come home safe and sound- please post some pics!!
 
I can't believe the Kim Muir is still so open, this is the race for me!
Taking Masters Hill as my win bet, and hedge the others.
Clare has nice pale cream coat, lets hope it stays clean.
 
Anyone not on Vatour?
JP McManus is not seeming very optimistic , but I have have got his horse Colour Squadron in a forecast, he looks terrific.
Venetia's horse too buzzy, two handlers.
Rich Richie [Vatour] optimistic, who wouldn't be, lets hope there are no incidents

Got my bets on for today as my friend manage to win £130 from a £5 bet yesterday!! Obviously one of my bets is for Andrew Nicholson in the charity race, go Mr Sticky Bum on Golden Jubilee! My other 2 are Apache Stronghold up now and Saphir Du Rheu later on.
 
Wow he made that look SO easy! Most impressive winner so far? Vautour...wow...what a horse! I had Apache Stronghold e/w, thought he looked so well in the paddock.
 
I also had Apache EW so pleased with that small return! Vantour certainly did make that look easy, how many lengths in front was he? A lot! Finished looking fresh and well, head up, ears pricked, a lovely horse and ridden superbly!
 
Scarily easy! What a weapon!

Mixture of France, the sales and the Irish Point to Point fields. Harold Kirk is the agent involved in most of Willies and buys some excellent horses. Faugheen's first win was a point over 3 miles...you'd have to wonder will they go chasing
