And really enjoyed all the comms welcome to our New American Commentator You are both brilliant and add great atmosphere to the races Great job boys. But wait till u have to say this course's name. It's a little welsh jumps course. Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch  been to the train station the sign is about a mile long U haven't been over here scouting/buying our race horses, I'm sure u bought that Jimmy Dean from a little welsh point to point handler. Me and Gray had our Eyes on that horse. The ex owner told me some Irish fella came over with a briefcase full of money, he said he was buying it for some one called McManus.

Gray Is there a max amount of runs in the rules or is it just through choice

 Re: League Weekly reaction
Average day on the flat, Sandow claimed 5th in the craven. Just can't get close enough to the main protagonists with his hold up style of racing, really doesn't suit the league. 5th in the Guineas will be the best we can hope for. Same with Just Another Day (8th) in the Brockelsby, just has to come from too far back.
Glad to get my first winner on the NH side with Masculine Emotion in the Juvenile, quite fortuitous the only front runner in the race got an easy lead and just held on. Probably not going to be able to replicate that in a Triumph hurdle field.

 Re: League Weekly reaction
My Grand national Weights Black Coffee 2 Runs 130 (Owner Not one bit Happy) Kerreseyne 1 Run 130 (Owner Furious and had a HUGE BF) Colombian Coffee 1 run 118 (Owner quite happy)  Obviously only 2 from 3 Can run will have to see what CC gets after his next run prob next week but can have fun for rest of the season with one of them and if they do well run off top weight in GN and give the other best chance. Is Rule 3 runs before the national or 2?

My aim is to get all runners in the national within 20 lengths of each other! Won't have a runner this year but looking forward to hosting the National Weights Lunch before telling you all I've taken the pleasure of filling everyone's saddles with 12st of lead!

Delighted 3 winners today Cleopatra again ran a strong race in 3rd in the Juvenile and is on form one of the top Juve's out there RACE OF THE SEASON what a battle down the straight between Pomme Tiepy & KERRESEYNE it was a war and a dead heat was a fair result some race JIMMY DEANwow wow wow how impressive was he winning by over 4 lengths he must like Tipperary on the button most of the way and went clear and is back in contention for the Champion Bumper. BLACK COFFEE won the 4m2 maiden chase well (Owners not happy) looks like i have 3 contenders for the national now And 2 won this week U were a bit unlucky today Paul with George but theres alwayz another day, anyway how are u bud?

Is Rule 3 runs before the national or 2? It's going to pay to have high rated horses because if all 30 trainers have a runner then there's only place for 10 other horses. My horses are rated high 130-128 but I'd rather aim them for the Moore's race at Cheltenham anyway. The Grand National is a lottery so I'm not that fussed.
