    The four legged game: the R3 Forum racing thread



    Well it all kicked off last week when I started a boat race thread so not sure what to expect with this.
    What's everyone's tip for the national tomorrow?
    As much as I'd like to see Synchronised do the gold cup / national double, history is against it
    Black Apalachi each way maybe ?

    A good time for doing the shopping?

          Looks like ER is going to be busy in late july/ early august with these threads !

          Anyway, I quit while I was ahead after backing Mr Frisk who won at 16/1 way back when, so i am going to save my quid yet again.

          Good luck to all the MB nags this weekend, anyway !!

            Perhaps there should be a new category of betting on the race - like how many horses will die needlessly?

                Don't get in front of the horses?

                  Watch out for Trenton Oldfield at Beechers. He may object to the presence of millionaire amateur jockeys (who may also be the sons and grandsons of millionaires) in the race.

                    My tip is to go for a long walk in the country and hope to find some more wild garlic .........

                      I hope some Oxbridge alumnus disrupts the race. It should be banned in this day and age: I mean it discriminates against the nobs. When was the last time anyone from the varsity was allowed to enter the race, let alone win it?

                            Ooh I dunno about that. Lovely horses' doovers for the garden! Well worth stinking the car out on the journey home.

                              Probably spend the afternoon doing something elitist like going for a walk up the Dales.
