...... Wincanton Today ......

Best of luck today,

hi mate,
     enjoy the week, i can tell you that the hobbs horse in capitaine race was expected to win lto..(ran out)but nicholls runner in the first has always been the subject of good reports..movewiththetimes,hes trying to win with everything, and is even sending 7 up to perth this week?

It's a steal 2.55
shaped well last time over hurdles after a break. This trip will better than the 3miles he tried last few times over hurdles and should be in the money at least.

Lime Street 3.30
Ran well in first handicap last time and looks like he will be suited by extra couple of furlongs in a weak race.

Enjoy your trip workrider

Memes Horse @ 5 on here is worth a bet and Domello mo for the icing on the cake ..

Had a very interesting day yesterday , got invited into the owners and trainers , how do I do it I hear you ask . Knew my fate re Antiphony early , owners were sitting at the next table and were far from hopefull , met a wonderful lady later on , she sat down and we had the most wonderfull chat , she is Harry Cobdens Grandmother and a first cousin to Paul Barber ,she was telling me Harry was having a lot of seconds and she was hoping his luck would change ,the lad only goes and bangs in a double .A delightfull lady and full of interest in her grandson .Off to N. A . till later.

I'd say Harry Cobdens grandmother won't forget you for a while, I can imagine her turning round to her friends when you left and saying " thank god that little Irish pest is after fukking off"

It's ironic, Wonks lambasts me for posting on here when allegedly on holiday (27 degrees meant I could only be on holiday) and duly proceeds to give us a blow by blow account of his sad, solitary sojurn around the UK.

Any craic at the Travelodge Hotel bar last night Wonks, or did you retire early with a copy of the Beano?

If you put out a shout on the HR forum you might get a meet up with some random head banger.

Looking forward to the next installment.

#idilliyclifestyle

i think you're secretly jealous of workrider ozy because he actually has a life when all you have to look forward to each day is a visit from your carer.

how do I do it I hear you ask

genuine

funny story in the Daily Mail today from Wincanton yesterday:

Stewards took the unprecedented step of interviewing a racegoer who was strutting around with a sweeping brush between his legs and banging two coconut shells shouting "giddyup". As said racegoer explained that he wouldn't be returning any time soon they cautioned him as to his responsibilities when older people were present.

RA, Racing UK spotted him down by the last fence.

oz whats wrong with visiting 4 courses in the uk that you have never been too? if you love racing its a great break? and one most of us would like to do? but just because you like big brother does not mean others do?

great stuff wr..followed you in..

Im joining in the holiday thread as im in mozambique and its 32 degrees

Staggered at R. A. , I know now what it stands for Right ****....

To think he comes on here all holier than thou ,berating others for childishness , a prime example of a right billy hunt and a stuck up ponce is R.A.Hole.

Whats up, Wonks?

Lumpy mattress at the Premier Inn?  I knew that Lenny Henry was a wrong 'un.

Others may be childish but Ozymandius like Angela Merkel and her predecessor are childless,tis that that renders them dangerous.

Workrider likes racing,goes racing and here is picking up where he left off with winners.

Wonks I will be in the owners and trainers at Lingfield on Wednesday if you care to join me?

Thanks for the offer Mrcombustible but I am due to visit Taunton tomorrow evening . Going to take a day off and go to the seaside ,heading to Swanage were I spent sometime as a child, childhood memories and all that.

Good to see you pick a few nice winners workrider,enjoy the rest of your trip,

Royal Academy = Snap= Ozymandius= Mincer =Callitascuit= Tobywong
Isnt that what people say on here when somebody says something about them that they dont like.

some cretins in that list alrite

Dan, a good description of myself, yes intolerant, and certainly not interested in current affairs, but angry i disagree with. An inability to suffer fools is constantly being mixed up with supposed anger. This perceived anger is always directed at a complete and utter fool, of which there are quite a few on here regularly.

The Rock will be gutted that he missed out on today's roll call cacophony of repeditive insults issued by Enoch, a lovable, well balanced, educated, open-minded, tolerant, progressive and thoroughly pleasant OAP.  Bless

Some may think you are doing this deliberately,not me its just your inability to follow simple threads.

The reason " The Rock " isint on the roll call is he wasn't on Mincers list,'twas that list I was responding to.

Oh, 'twas it?  'Tis Fascinating.  And der was meself tinking ya was just havin' da random rant.

No one has a problem with wonks going racing wether it be in Ireland the uk or Timbuktu,
It's the constant "pay attention to me"sh!te he comes out with,
Any other normal racing enthusiast  just goes about their racing without the need to give a tutorial of the day's events on here.
Nobody cares.

Thats exactly it, cheltenham roar sums it up perfectly. Nobody cares, and comments like "how do i do it you ask " dont really help.

mincer chelts,
plenty posted from aintree or the festival. niether of you moaned then? if your not interested dont post about it..?

Do you know what Tony , you are right,you are 100% spot on.
That is the catalyst for me to draw up a list of people that i have absolutely no interest in what they say or ever will say for that matter.
So i am going to block anybody who i think will never ever make a worthwhile comment of any consequence, and anybody who will never ever post something that may help me in a positive way.
So in no particular order

That's because there isn't any to see mincer11 but I'm glad I can see yours as you are always good for a laugh.....Oh and just the 60 or so Grade 1 race wins for Fitzgerald and Henderson combined, including Cheltenham Festival races like the Arkle, Cathcart, Champion Hurdle, Coral Cup Hurdle, the Gold Cup, Queen Mother, RSA Chase, Ryanair Chase, Stayers' Hurdle, Triumph Hurdle, as well as Fiztgeral himself winning other top races like the Martell Aintree Hurdle, Bula Hurdle, Christmas Hurdle, Cleeve Hurdle, the Grand National, the King George, Martell Cup Chase, P@ddy P0wer Gold Cup, Racing Post Chase, Tingle Creek and the T0te Gold Trophy, with many of those races being won more than once.

Shall we also just forget that two of those so called Henderson "journeyman" jockeys have won the Cheltenham Gold Cup, one of them has won the Betfair Chase and the King George twice, the Mildmay of Flete at the Cheltenham Festival, the Becher Handicap Chase and Topham Chase too, with the other "journeyman" being able to add a Queen Mother to his Cheltenham Gold Cup win, as well as a Coral Cup and a Supreme Novices' Hurdle, plus several other grade race wins, with both of those "journeymen" having limited opportunities up until now.

I'll play along with you though and pretend that you can't actually see my messages and say that's a pity then, as if you could you wouldn't continuously make such an @rse of yourself and isn't it annoying when the facts get in the way of your nonsense arguments eh? Grin

i love it when mincie seethes...a truly sad individual.

I,d say you will have a few stories with Mozambique Padlock,sounds interesting.
Not a bad neck of the woods where you are Workrider,hope you have some luck and enjoy the racing anyway.
For the day that it is Mincer,Glanmire wouldn't be the worst spot if you knew someone,an early start and short drive you could watch the horses in Pilmore or Garryvoe and off out and do the Ballycotton cliff walk then.
Twould be grand.

Workrider, you quote ima mazed post on another thread, this amazed character should not under any circumstances be allowed roam around with half normal people let alone post his outrageous thoughts/ramblings on any public forum.
Amazed writes paragraphs of utter muck stating nothing in them as you can see from the above post that you put up.
I myself have blocked him long ago as all he is doing is taking up space on a thread page, which if you read them for long enough you will see why.

agree with gemini

You amaze me Racingqueen,agreeing with Gemini01 contradictory post.

He first states that Ima Mazed shouldn't be allowed post because his thoughts are outrageous yet you know Gemini couldn't identify these disgraceful thoughts.
He then states he writes paragraphs of utter muck stating nothing in them,if there is nothing in them how are they so outrageous.

Gemini01 main gripe is his posts are long and he seems to get into spats with Mincer.

Mincer hates him because he defends at great length Kieran Fallon.

For me he makes valid points but his forensic style upsets those gentlemen that can't hack long posts.

PA,
Mozambique !...what about WR's childhood memories and all that of Swanage - the hometown of John Cleese's Fawlty Towers character Basil Fawlty

Padlock is one of the sounder ones here,very different and no Santa Ponsa.
Sure i remember hearing fierce stories about tetse(?) flies, i think they are down around there,know nothin about the place.

The Gathering

A play of one act

Dramatis Personae:

Dan: a part-time farmer with strong political allegiances who has retired from the Department of Agriculture and now spends his days gambling and howling at the moon. Never misses a day’s racing within 100 kms of his pastoral retreat in Tipperary.

Lester: named after the jockey’s first Derby win in 1954 and a retired lad from Mick O’Toole’s stable on the Curragh. A keen race-goer thanks to his retirement pass from the Turf Club and a self-professed expert on all matters racing. Considered politics but his family dissuaded him on the basis that he was “too honest” for that game. More recently has a part-time job with Horse Racing Ireland whereby he offers feedback to the authorities on punters’ facilities at all major race fixtures. Writes a blog called “Course Confidential” that caused some controversy in 2014 on what many saw as an over-emphasis on toilet facilities.

Agnes: our hapless barmaid

A scene from a rural Irish racecourse not far from the Devil’s Bit:

Agnes: Well hello, Dan, how are you? shure Thurles wouldn’t be held without ya. You just missed Michael Lowry and his hangers on-he’s got a runner in the first.

Dan: Hello Agnes. It’s nice to see your familiar face here and don’t tell Mick you saw me or he’ll have me payin’ his tab (guffaws). Now, girl, I’ll have the usual ball a’malt and a pint. A good lubrication to skin those bookies although it won’t be from Lowry’s nag Icecoldindy.

Agnes: I’ve never seen such a small crowd. That television money is a godsend. My uncle is a happy man I can tell ya!

Dan: Good girl! You can’t bate a drop of Paddy – givus a quick top-up – and I must say you’re lookin’ fair well today. If I was ten years younger yer husband would be in trouble.

Agnes: Ah now Dan, get on with ya.......

She shuffles off to sell a ham sandwich to a bookie’s runner

Suddenly, Dan senses a presence at his shoulder......................

Lester: Ahem, ahem! Excuse me sir, this is a little forward of me but by any chance are you a Betfair Irish Forum member, by any chance going under the name of “wildmanfromborneo”?

Dan peers around suspiciously at the small little fella invading his space wearing a denim jacket and thinks “oh dear god, what have we got here?”

Lester: I know we’ve had a few missed appointments but if you are the same Wildmanfromborneo it would be one of the proudest moments of my life to meet you at last. Barmaid! Can you get this man a drink please......it looks as if he’s drinking whiskey, why don’t you give him a large one to help us celebrate. I’ll have a Britvic orange or a Cidona, whatever’s handy.

Dan: That’s very kind of you eh.....eh.....

Lester: Lester, Sir

Dan: Lester (good grief, he thinks)...Lester, thats very kind of you but I’m afraid you’re making a bad mistake here. I don’t know anything about this Betfair business and I’ve no idea what you’re talking about. I’m actually waiting for my good friend, the local politician Michael Lowry – I’m sure you know of him? – and he’s due shortly. In fact, we have a runner in the first together.

Lester: Oh! I’m very sorry Sir, I was sure I had finally met a man who has supported me through thick and thin for years. It’s a funny world when you have never met one of your best friends, y’know?

Dan: God, look at that! The horses are just in the ring for the first. I better get out to talk to Arthur Moore and see what’s expected here. You know these trainers, about as forthcoming as a Special Branch garda, hahaha. Agnes, would you mind minding my pint, I’ll be back later?

Lester: (clearly crestfallen) I’m very sorry to have bothered you, Sir. Wait until I tell the wife, she was so looking forward to seeing the selfie (followed by a small deprecating laugh). It’s our standing joke before I catch the train.

Dan: well, I hope you find your “friend” soon. He sounds like an interesting man.

Agnes clears away the empty glasses, puts the pint under the counter. Dan adjusts his Crombie, dons his Trilby and makes his way to the parade ring hoping it won’t be noticed he doesn’t enter. Lester hangs around for a few moments and decides he’ll have a deuce on the Athur Moore runner. Suddenly a small little grin creases his weathered, tanned skin and he thinks “wait until I tell the lads on the Irish Forum!” The day mightn’t be a failure after all.

That's a lot of effort put in to creating a piece that is ultimately quite dull.

R.A Hole, as the bould Mincer would say what a crock of **** . Whatever you do Brendan, don't give up the day job or you'll starve...
