    What are you spouting on about?

    I would still back MTOY every day of the week against her over 2 miles, he was absolutely legless in that race.

    I didn't see your post, in her yard I would have Annie Power and Apples Jade ahead of her, Limini and Min are open to improvement too and that is without looking across the water.

    Here are my earlier comments about her:

    I thought she was capable of much better than she showed in the Mares and this was my reasoning to take her on with a much classier animal at a bigger price, I had already backed him when some mentioned Nickys negative review.

    Awful, awful, awful is my summary of my Punchestown, feel free to go find where I posted a winner because I can't think of one.

    Hope this clarifies.

    Myself and akelly obviously gave some thought to MTOY running 2 tough races after a 2 year lay off...hence our fancy for VVM.
    AP was already a given in posts as the top mare in NH...did you bother to read the replies properly?
    Apples Jade I would certainly have to agree on...Min though? as has been pointed out, not a mare.
    All that is beside the point though, you were over the top in writing off VVM against MTOY and hadn't the balls to come on after and take your medicine.

    That post is all well and good but VVM is still the 2nd best mare around. Min is not a mare either.

    Always had him pegged as a she!!

    Which of Apples Jade or Annie Power would she beat?


    Apples jade.

    Got the 8/1 on Hold Court tomorrow returning from a break seriously handicapped he is unreliable though and he must work very well because he is often backed off the boards

    You never once mentioned it, until now, funny that. Akelly did but a couple of posts later stated MTOY should be favourite even though VVM was getting weight off him, odd posting.

    I think you need to read the posts again, where did I say Annie Power wasnt the best mare? Once I saw your posts I replied with two mares better than her. Funny now after the race and after I should be taking medicine you agree that Apples Jade and Annie Power are better than VVM

    I wasn't the only one who thought she would get hammered. Are you from the 1920s? Take my medicine.

    So I thought MTOY would trash her, he never went a yard and was clearly knackered and there is medicine to be had?

    As stated Annie and Apples would destroy her and if she races MTOY again i would still back him, just cause he was tired doesnt make me wrong.

    To say apples jade would destroy her makes you look a bit foolish.

    On him myself. Hopefully the ground dries another bit. Forecast dry at least. Has to be more of a 6-1 shot if it dries out

    I've given up with him. Apparently if you say a horse will destroy another and it gets beaten by that other....it still doesn't mean your wrong.

    He will get the mile no problem I think and will go on to be a top class miler at that

    Limato always struck me as a ball of speed. Serious animal but not sure about a mile. Sure we will see anyway.

    It's too scripted.. Seen something online during the week that the producers made up the after story of the lesbian date a from week 2..

    Ya haha. I watched it and it said they went out and had a great night. My sister was watching it a few days later and I was in the room and it said something different I thought I was losing my mind. Changed the ending or something after the one gave out online about it

    Yeah it was due to one of the participants complaining, saying that it never happened, so they went back and changed it.

    It's scripted in pieces but other than that it's all legit. It's become a guilty pleasure of mine now.
