Skeltons costing punters fortunes at Aintree

thay dont have winners at top meeting basil

Yep, just what I was going to type. Just ignore their horses at festival meetings.

Fair comments lads, certainly havent picked their legs up today despite having a few fancied runners.

Possibly the winner storm.

Le Milos bound to win.

Stable in form stable out of form ffs it happens

Won big 3m2f race at Newbury; stamina not absolutely guaranteed but he's of great interest

The new deckie

Not sure why he was going for the big one at the last when 10L down

probably he didn't know either..

Mind blowing what was going on from 2 out

Not sure why he was going for the big one at the last when 10L down

Agree madness

That is Skelton though to gung ho for my liking.

outsider fusain 40/1 doubled prize money with that fall

3rd:
£12,732.00

2nd paid 25k

Done his h'cap no damage and picked up a nice return which is what the clown on the faller should have done

skelton and jamie moore...dead heat for fewest brain cells

The system never fails

Thank you

Exactly Muff. Other runners didnt pick their feet up then this gags up. Unreal.

A jockey is only as good or bad as their last ride.

Murphys Law. Lol

Hopeless those Skeltons,aren’t they ?

You dismiss Harry Skelton at your peril ! .... Nice one !

Great threads these   

What a price. Beginning to like that aeroplane celebration.

Another one for the system

am lol with the post i put up this morning

Respect for mentioning that post Jackboo 

You gotta laugh Jackboo. Looks like the Skelton plan was to not bother on the first two days, but then to throw the kitchen sink at Grand Natiional Saturday. We live and learn mate.

I cant moan, Ive enjoyed the racing at Aintree and seeing Davy Russell win a couple of races as his swansong is well deserved and great to watch, even better Im a tiny bit in front after backing all the wrong Skelton horses.

dan , dan , DAN

Horrible mob. 'Given the ammunition etc etc ' as per Fitzy. Did she not have the ammunition in the first race?

Vile owt feet.
