Racing this weekend

[Clodagh]

Oh well. 50p down.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

What about 3.36 Ascot?

 

[Smitty]

I lost 20p. Was he last or was it the other one I did!

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

Lhomme Presse is a very pretty horse, could see him in a show ring

 

[Maddie Moo]

I’m sticking with L’Homme Presse.

 

[teapot]

Only four in a Grade 1 at Ascot

 

[Clodagh]

I really want Harry Cobden to win the championship but I’ve gone for l’Homme Presse.

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

I think Pic has been given too big a lead

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Well done Pic D'orhy

 

[Clodagh]

Pic D’Orhy totally deserved that. Lovely,

 

[teapot]

(Ascot, the course where the following cars are Aston Martins...)

Great ride by Harry C!

 

[Smitty]

Wow!

 

[humblepie]

I love the style of horse Venetia goes for. Proper types.

 

[Chiffy]

Great afternoon’s racing, two winners for Harry! Hurrah!
Sorry Apple Away wasnt so impressive this time.

 

[Clodagh]

I’m £1.50 ish down on the day, but very enjoyable.
My boss at the pub has a share in Kits Coty who was in the 4.50 at Wincanton. She was last, but they needed hi viz to be seen!

 

[Clodagh]

Poor old Peking Opera was out on his feet there. I’m glad he got up, I think he was just exhausted.

 

[Smitty]

I'm not watching the 4 mile chase.

 

[Clodagh]

My boy was a non runner in the Adonis. I’m quite relieved.

 

[Clodagh]

I'm not watching the 4 mile chase.

I hate 4 miles chases at the best of times.

 

[Clodagh]

I did see the finish, didn’t look too awful actually.

 

[Smitty]

So do I, however, just saw end of it and they did seem to be finishing well. Glad it's over though.

To be truthful, I am a crap shareholder in a racehorse. The one I have about 4000th of a share in has only run once this year and that suits me .

 

[Maddie Moo]

It was a good finish! The ground looked quite decent there and they went a really sensible pace, sometimes they start off like they’re going around a 2 miler . There was one faller but they were up straight away and chasing after the others and one unseat in the final straight.

Don’t even speak to me Ryanair day!

 

[Clodagh]

Isn’t Pembroke beautiful.

 

[Smitty]

I take it SS is running. Are you going?

 

[Smitty]

Yes he is very handsome, and rangy

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

So close to having 3/3 in the 7

 

[Clodagh]

I take it SS is running. Are you going?

If I get a badge (very unlikely). If I don’t I’m going to stress on the sofa.

 

[Smitty]

Haven't been to Cheltenham for about 18 years. We always went up Tues or Weds. I have tickets for Taunton's free day on Monday instead - not quite the quality but then ...

I was tempted by that, were you at Taunton last week?
