Addiction to horse racing .............

if you find yourself staying up til 4am for a 4 furlong claimer from Charlestown then sir you have a problem

Jose Montano, you da man

FR---the whole idea of this forum was that people who like/love/are addicted to horse racing, could chat to people of a like mind about intesting things from the past and present.
And in fairness many do, and there are some intelligent and very knowledgable forumites-----sadly at the other end of the intellectual spectrum, there are folks on here whose only interest is of a "destructive" nature, and they can really deter serious discussions, with personal attacks, and abusive language.
Just as bad are the "snipers", who just hang around looking to make "sarky" comments.

Anyway, try originating an interesting thread, and I'm sure you will get some interaction with the decent guys on here--GL

One has to differentiate between being addicted to horse racing and being addicted to BETTING on horse racing.
This is primarily a gambling site, and that is why some of the forumites are as you describe.

I hope this is of assistance.

I bet Im not!

If you spend more than 1 hour a day here you have serious issues

mange I will not be drawn into what people should and should not do with their lives and I will not post to satisfy those that have been less fortunate than you, I and others

What I will say is this....Handicapped or not....There are much better things that can be done with a day than to be here for long

A lot of posters are self excluded and have pub bans, no man is an island.
