Well until Sunday anyway. Brilliant performance from Croatia. The Argentinians seem to have lost the ability to cheat their way to victory. Luka Modric is a little wizard. Never mind Messi or Ronaldo....
Well after last nights excitement a bit of relaxing racing. I am posting early as I need to be out handy for a dental appointment and an errand or two to run. Should be back in before the off if all...
Morning punters. Plenty of action today but the big meet starts Tuesday with Royal Ascot getting under way. With that in mind, and to keep my powder dry so to speak, minimum stakes are in order today...
A so called friend sent me a list of emojis with tenuous links to famous footballers. I am off out just now and think I have cracked about 9 of them. I will be in again later if you would care to try...
Lovely day again and some quality racing. Fancy the hooves will rattle today, so nothing too ambitious but hopefully a bit of success. El Astronaute @5/1 2.30 Musselburgh Yafta @4/1 3.05 Newmarket...
Another year another Oaks and Derby. I think all involved are going to be wet and warm. The crowd is liable to need buckets of water sluiced over them never mind the horses. Have had a little punt...
Seems like another thread went left. Still plenty going on elsewhere.. No arrests were made or anyone jailed in the making of this report. Gunmen run free whilst "protesters" are silenced with...
Morning all another action packed sporting weekend. What with the play off finals, Champions League Final, Monaco Grand Prix and some very competitive racing the length and breadth of Britain and...
My we have been lucky. Remember the last time it was like this? 1976. Remember the tunes? We all lived outside and were blinded by the light. Springsteen song covered by Manfred Mann....
Morning all. Lovely day. One to definitely keep away from the TV methinks, so get on early and get out in the sunshine. Had a look at John Gosden today and an old favourite of mine in the Lockinge....
Lol @ Nails avatar. I remember the night he was setting up the axe hammering a nail in. Now he changes them weekly. Hi Nails. You have been "barred"....
Hi Cap, just wondering whether you caught Nils Lofgren on Radio 2 safnoon. Johnny Walker show. Talking about his time in Crazy Horse and with the E Street Band. Well worth a listen on the I Player....

Has anyone else noticed the numbers of this lovely little butterfly about this year? I first noticed a few weeks ago that they were back in numbers. They used to be very common but I don't think I...
Lovely morning and some nice racing again. There was some good action at Chester this week. I did have a sneaky look and had a nice 30/1 double on Thursday with a place 4 timer, so am in funds for...
Morning all beautiful weekend in prospect. Let's see if we can make it "hot" for the wicked bookies. Guineas weekend so summer has arrived. Tricorn @8/1 1.50 Newmarket Mori @11/4 2.05 Goodwood Elarqam...
Afternoon. The "jumps" finishes today with a very nice meeting at Sandown after a cracking week in Ireland. I did not venture a bet and missed out on a John Gosden bonanza mid week. Never mind perhaps...
Morning all. A beautiful day up here, so an early start so that I can get into the garden. Missed your midweek post Ken, as I have not bothered all week. I do note though that Mick Channon seems to be...
