By:

Pricewise has tipped The Mourne Rambler. Sorry, OP, if that's jinxed it.
|

By:
Stormin was able to pick a few chips from a punter's bag he was put so far over the rail on Rhinestone Cowboy,not a chance it wouldn't have been turned around these days.
|
|
By:
Punchestown, that's exactly how I remember it, absolute miscarriage of justice
Ramruna, probably a jinx but I'm not on it (yet) so no problem for me |
|
By:
There was a much worse one in the stayers hurdle anyone remember the one I mean ?
|
|
By:
Rose Ravine and Crimson Embers I would say ? Or possibly Avro Anson and Balasani?
|
|
By:
The first one second again perhaps as they were both owned by the same person made a difference,as punchestown said they were taking chips this one was in the Guinness village.
|
|
By:
I can never remember which one won I do remember that I backed the one that didn’t which is probably why I still think about it.
|
|
By:
I think Rose Ravine was FPTP and kept the race.
|
|
By:
Probably the worst stewards decision I can remember. Though luckily not the most expensive for me.
|
|
By:
I was actually at Exeter around 20 years ago there was one at least equally as bad where the winner kept it I can’t remember the names of the horses involved it was a Friday and one was a grey.
|
|
By:
Crimson Embers won the Stayer's the next year.
Won it easy. |
|
By:
Was hill of Slane in the race Penzance ?
|
|
By:
The stayers down the years has more than held its own there’s been some great races and some great winners the thing that annoys most at Cheltenham is the false starts mine is when the press/ pundits call the ryanair the feature race of Thursday never has never will be ,
|
|
By:
1982 He was 2ND when Crimson Embers won.
|
|
By:
82 was there year jonjo was leading jockey at the meeting
How many winners? |
|
By:
The not there
|
|
By:
I guess 1 may be 2,countback?
|
|
By:
Correct Penzance 1 winner won on placed horses
Can you imagine laying him as he was favourite and after 17 races he hadn’t road a winner with just the county hurdle to go you would be licking your chops ,then bang in he pops with path of peace. There very few things you can be certain of in racing but a leading rider with one winner could only ever happen again if the last 3 days were abandoned. |
|
By:
Hill Of Slane looked up and says he was trained by K R Burke.
I take it that's the Karl Burke of today? |
|
By:
I would be astonished if it was the same one Penzance
|
|
By:
I should have the sporting life from that day bit short of time tonight but I’ll look tomorrow
|
|
By:
Got the life in front of me now Penzance

Just noticed there was a 645am inspection due to the soaking conditions
Pictures of a young David Nicholson on the front page I never remember him been young. |

By:
Bookmakers advertising the prices of horses in the centre pages that’s a distant memory

By:
Alan Jarvis?,Burkes father in law.
|
|
By:
That’s correct Penzance Karl would have been in his late teens at the time of the 82 festival.
|
|
By:
Cheers,
sure I see Burke by his name in his form. Must've got it wrong . GL @ Cheltenham. |
|
By:
Himself,Ryan Moore,Oisin Murphy and Johnny Murtagh still trying to get out of there.
