I'm enjoying it although I didn't enjoy watching Pat Dobbs on the favourite, there.

I'd say that second race was more exciting than I anything I saw the Willie & Ruby show

It's quite exciting and the best races are to come.

What about the first race? The eventual third looked like it had the race won, then veered right across the track. 1.01 busted.

One man's meat is another's poison bankit. I can't stand jumps racing,so I don't watch it!

If you find Dubai boring why do you watch it?

No idea what happened at second race, but if it's better than seeing sprinter sacre regain a title and Annie win a champion hurdle then it must be off the scale.

If you backed one of the winners at 12/1 you would love it.

At least it won't be £5.20 for a pint of Guiness at Meydan. Cry

Agree with the original poster. Wouldn't be quite so bad if it was just on one channel. The all-weather is a bad enough intrusion into the jumps season as it is. How about scrapping this pile of junk and starting the Flat season after the Grand National? Let's face it the sport's leading trainer doesn't even bother too much about getting his horses fit until after the first two Classics.

Seeing Sprinter Sacre win or Annie or anything else is not worth a toss if you hav'nt backed them

I've got it on but to be honest only have one eye on it.  Results are too random to have serious bets.  Postponed is the only bet I quite fancy everything else is speculative fun.  Not a patch on Cheltenham, Aintree, Royal Ascot, Goodwood for excitement.

Excitement is all about a winning bet especially at a decent price.Thank you Ryan Moore
Dont know when I last backed a winner at Cheltenham at 11/1

Duramente gave that winner Real Steel you got 11/1 5lb and approx 1/2 beating last time.  So is Duramente a good thing in the next @ 3/1 or is the extra distance going to sink him?

The ability of the jockey to get a good prominent position early in the race seems to be important at Meydan

Pulled shoe in parade ring tried to put it back on and horse was having none of it so presume the farrier was told to pull the other front shoe off so wouldn't be too unbalanced

Running without shoes what a joke.  Still didn't harm Postponed chances.  I've heard they are going to blindfold Ice Keen in the next expect an announcement just before the off. Crazy

the amount of energy wasted without running without shoes must of been enormous.

I do try to like James Willoughby but he doing my head in, thankfully just the big one to go (Frosted for me).  I hope it don't clash with the bumper races on RUK!
