Such a great old man and Long Run is one tough customer... I was worried!

Still haven't seen the replay but if you catch it and could post it that would be great.

If not I'm sure I'll find it later.

A nice start to the day...

To Kauto!

"Ruby came over to school him and Kauto was awesome, just as I'd thought he would be. He jumped six fences - the plain fence and the open ditch three times each - and he was foot perfect and looked magnificent.
"I have just put the phone down to Clive and, barring any mishaps in the next few days, Kauto lines up for the Gold Cup at Cheltenham on Friday. We are looking forward to it."

Thanks for the update, Bigs.

I'm glad the connections of Grande Crus opted for the Wednesday race instead.

Is What a Friend cross-entered in something else? Kinda hope so. Kauto Star and Long Run... I mean I don't think anyone comes close.

My lock for tomorrow with ridiculously nothing odds is of course everyones lock, Sprinter Sacre BUT my other lock (and this one should be at fair enough odds... 12/1?) is Montbazon.

Longshot for the day is White Star Line. At 20/1 now, should go higher. Hooray.

Favorite runners tomorrow (cause I know everyone cares ) are all in the same one... Binocular (winner), Hurricane Fly and my Celestial Halo (I know, I know but this is my favorite guy of the day even if he'll be last).

Oh and I like Our Mick although The Package should win that one.

Oh and David Ord! Can't wait to read his stuff!!!

Good luck to anyone playing (are you, Bigs?), and come home safe EVERYONE.

Nice pick with Cinders and Ashes, Herkie!

White Star Line was 2nd and a couple of mine were 3rd or 4th just for the sake of comedy. Basically I sucked. Glad you didn't!

Haven't watched anything yet. I never do till after...

Everyone home safe?

Sad postscript from the first two days racing as 3 horses died on Day 1 and 2 on Day 2.. I sincerely hope that is the end .

Beautiful picture, Herkie and have to say you're very brave for watching as it happens.

I can't. Never could. I will root and or bet but nover watch till until after the fact and only if I'm sure of no fallers.

Thanks for the news, Brock. I'll try to find names and add them to the angels thread or if you'd want to...

Honestly I haven't even looked at results yet for the day but did hear something about Sizing Europe, who I love, and an incident during his race.

Come home safe everyone and good luck guys.

I was planning on playing tomorrow but I think I'll sit it out... maybe Friday as well.
