Seems to have got some in the mood,
a quick data scan shows some popularity (22.5%) for another 'triple-digit' running tomorrow.
Anyone 'hear' anything about it?

Most likely caused by eager folks who missed out on 17's BTC and seeking similar easy gains.
I.e. Likely hyperbole that will fail to materalise any further.

Seems to be some popularity for a 250/1 early tomorrow, after today's 200/1 it might well just be some wishful thinking.

Even worse - to watch people who haven't a bog just going for a piss up...

And on that note, think I'll be going on Stephens Day this year rather than the 27th as normal due to starting a new job!

And on that note... any freebies going for the 26th?

Un de Sceaux
Vautour
Douvan
Faugheen

It's close to the end of an era, but what an era.
Faugheen is the best hurdler of all time.
Un de Sceaux, one of the greats, full stop.
Vautour, majestic even in defeat. (Himself, Cue Card & Don Cossack with 2 to jump)
Douvan.. has beaten Sizing John 5 times without ever looking in trouble.
What a team of horses!

Hurricane fly a proper hardy horse to be around at the top for so long, the goat.

Ha. I like it.
Istabraq has all the Champion Hurdles no doubt.
One of my favourites. But nothing would have lived with Faugheen the day he beat Arctic Fire 15 lengths with Nicholls Canyon further begin.

Declan Murphy's Centaur is a very good read.
An old one but one i really enjoyed was Seabiscuit.
Fallon's book seems to be getting good reviews too.

Got Dave Nevisons books "A bloody good winner" and "No easy money" off Amazon for pennies..

Finished Findleys book and herself is after buying me Fallons for Xmas..

So I should be ok for a few weeks
