    Ooops.... Just saw this again...

    My horsey is my favourite horsey at the moment... :p

    I always liked Denman - my kind of horse - great attitude, and always felt he'd look after whoever was in the saddle.

    On the flat, I think Sea the Stars was a once-in-a-lifetime horse for owner/trainer/punter alike. I really loved his attitude

    Kicking King and Rooster Booster also caught my eye...

    Can't really think too straight at the moment, so I've left out lots...

    Lol Convert, I hope you are in alaska, otherwise you sir are a loon!

    Mine are Denman, Sea The Stars, Monets Garden and Logh Derg - battlers with personality and burning will to win.

    Oh and Galikova if she wins the Arc, a lot of ny friends are on her after ignoring me about Zarkava at 7/1 and Sea The Stars at 14/1.

    I liked Henrythenavigator. Also loved a grey hurdler by the name of Serabad. Don't know what happened him.


    Getting my results tomorrow.

    My favorite horses have to be the one and only Yeats what a horse he was, spine tingling stuff winning his 3rd Gold Cup and even more so his 4th but it was the win in 2005 Coronation Stakes for me when Fallon gave him a great ride and plus the fact i'd doubled him up with Eswarah in the Oaks:D

    Sergeant Cecil was another fav of mine. Big Bucks is another who is a great battler and always just does enough. As was said Sea the Stars was a phenomenon along with the great Zarkava and i think Frankel is on his way to greatness too his Guinea's win will always stick just unbelievable there are actually so many i could mention but Yeats is my No.1;)

    Trinity

    There's a racing club in TCD? I've never seen/heard of them!

    Was in at the Fresher's week at lunchtime today... It seemed completely dead. Most disappointing! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    In the main square where the socs/clubs are?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,339 ✭✭✭convert


    Yep, in Front Square. It was really quiet compared with other years; I wasn't being hassled to join clubs as I wandered around, and it was actually really easy to move about. Plus the layout of the stands wasn't great - it was a little all over the place, I thought, which meant it was too easy to miss some of the stands.
