    I've gone for Our Power 25/1 ew

    On a nice weight of 10 stone, had won it's last 2 races and put away for this race.

    Good luck!

    Going to be a delay for sure,

    Looks like some of the protestors have maybe tied themselves to fences, looks like they might have come from inside the course too.

    This behaviour is great for the horses isn't it.

    I'd have left the ones tied to the fence, might have had some sense knocked into them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,555 ✭✭✭Augme


    How well the horses are looked after. Gordon Elliot says hello. 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,719 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    AP is having none of it 🤣



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,719 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Ignoring the morons themselves, they did tell the Coppers that this was their plan, so their is little excuse for the Merseyside Constabulary not to have put an extensive outer cordon away from the course.

    No he isn’t. I’d say the director was hoping that he didn’t use a swear word.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,699 ✭✭✭thecretinhop


    De locals having none of it epic!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,297 ✭✭✭Count Dracula


    I hope they get the shight bet out of them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    This will be a massive cheer when it gets underway.

    Just hope that there are no protestors that manage to make it on during the race.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,719 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Disaster with the huge number of loose mounts



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,698 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Jesus loose horses are causing havoc.



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,754 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Oh that was nasty! 🙁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,719 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Paddy Power won't have 6 to pay out on at this rate.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,908 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Corach Rambler.


    Looked through card 20 times, never even saw it, now that I look at its form it was obvious,

    Saw it, heard about it - ITV mentioned the handicap advantage a few times considering the weights were out before the win at Cheltenham.

    Still didn't touch it lol

    Some run to get a favourite around and home there, a very messy race in the first half.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,007 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,908 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    I never saw it, in fact I thought the commentator was making a mistake every time he mentioned it in race, as to me there was no horse of that name in race 😅.. and I looked at card for ages, and he would have to be a pick, if picking 6 to compete for victory, so I messed up .



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,754 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    I hope all jockeys and horses are okay. 🤞



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,084 ✭✭✭enricoh


    Who got sixth? Picked 9 yokes between the family none in the top 5 anyway! My 2 went at the first fence!

    Rarely watch horse racing but have to say that was a hard watch...don't agree with what the protesters did but you can see why they do it...surely something has to be done about the grand national...hopefully no horses or jockeys were injured...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,350 ✭✭✭Jeff2


    One horse dead at the first jump .

    I don't understand why they have the high jumps.

    Few weeks ago a horse jumped fine but another horse clipped that horses left front foot just after a jump and that was it. Horse dead.
