I can't say the same about others, but this year I just do not get the same buzz as previous years ie I'm not counting the days for it to arrive. If anything, I'm already thinking about 2000G at Newmarket for Pinatubo to stride his stuff.

The talk of a 5 Day Festival just irks me even more maybe I might even give the Festival a miss altogether this season; Altiorgate, the drip, drip support of leading NH trainers for the idea, and a total lack of outstanding horsey entities strutting their stuff I find underwhelming to say the least.

Bring on the Flat, and Pinatubo.

Can’t disagree more.

Best 4 days of the year. I’m there everyday for the first time staying 10 mins from the track.
I might even have a runner in the bumper.

Bring it on !! Love

Nothing better than having a direct interest, I guess. I wish you well in the bumper.

how are your horses coming along hibore ?

Hi Foyle, yes they are going well at the moment. The filly at Henderson’s is finalising her work and should be ready to run in March or more likely April. I’m going to see her in a couple of weeks and will get the latest on his festival runners.

The colt at Pipes has settled in well and he could run in a bumper in the next month...and then who knows. He’s obviously a 3 mile chaser in the making but we’ll see what happens. David likes him a lot. I’ve just had email to see him next Saturday but I’m at Cheltenham trials day so will give you more of an update when we reschedule the visit.

Impossible, true, a lot of lottery looking races but got some nice bets decent prices ante-post and looking forward to it in the main myself

In order of preference financially-wise, rooting for:

Envoi Allen
Abracadabras
Paisley Park
Benie De Dieux
Allmankind
Defi De Seuil
Tiger Roll
Maries Rock
Not So Sleepy
Cyrname

Also true, the Champion Hurdle and Gold Cup dont come up to scratch for my money but some doubles from the list above for the summer holiday! Excited

PS Got some tasty bets Pinatubo and Quadrilateral but would have to be nagging doubts they train on

Shouldn't go too far wrong with bets like 2/1 Envoi, 3/1 Paisley and 9/4 Benie, anyway

Woodmanchester is a serial liar and aftertimer , notice how he does not say which races those sections are in then aftertimes the prices.  It will get worse if you interact with him
