THE OFFICIAL PLACEPOT COMP CHIT - CHAT THREAD

kinell I came close to winning it last year until that sort fell off my 33/1 horse in the winning straight. There weren't even any fences left.

ANY TROLLS TRYING TO POST THEIR SELECTIONS WILL BE IGNORED

Good luck with ya bets pumpy

I'm working all week and just having Friday off.

I'm recording the racing and watching it when I get home, I'm hoping not to look at/hear any of the results but I don't think I have the willpower!

In 1989 I was living in an easy going shared flat. T

The VCR lived on the floor under the telly. Gold Cup Day I set the timer in the morning and went to work. Successfully avoided results and arrived home to enjoy the action. Flatmate had hoovered the TV room - first time in five years anyone apart from me had touched the blessed hoover - and managed to bump the timer switch to off.

On a par with 'I won't tell you the United v City result, but a goal would have made it exciting.'

After feeling sick with nerves for the last few days, I am now feeling amazingly calm and relaxed

Afternoon Pumpy.

Are there any notable absences from the placepot comp?

I can't think that anyone would forget.

45 runners, that's nit bad.

Hope SF and Delightful haven't forgotten

No scratching

All the best pumps and sf over the next 4 days..alot of work,time and effort. We do appreciate it.

Lets get ready to rumble....Good luck y'all

Thank you, Pumpy.

Good luck eveyone.

Thanks for sharing, MMH

A good start to the first race. That's a relief.

I got some points there for coming third, but I would rather have had no points and for Annie Power not to have had that horrible fall.

Thank goodness she and the other horse are fine.

Incredible scenes really. What drama. It looked all over. Annie Power, bidding to land an incredible four-timer for Mullins and Walsh, a bookie-bashing juggernaut of the highest order, falls at the last when clear and cruising. You could feel the place about to explode when she approached the last as 50,000 racegoers, many, plenty, most, with Mullins accas riding on Annie Power, held their collective breath. I've never heard a crowd groan like it. From a possible sustained roar to what seems like near silence. She's up, she's fine. And Glen's Melody,also trained by Mullins, won the race by the way.

blogger from on course... blogs the drama..

Thanks Makybe, and   even better end of the day for you

I got off to a very bad start not just on here but also with my bets for today,  that last race at Cheltenham though put things back to right.
