2nd statement much better than the first, and maybe would have been better waiting to give a sensible one first time around.

I told better stories when I was late back to Dryad, after a Tuesday night at Pyramids!

Doubt there will be new jockeys, I'd imagine CPS will look for the jockeys to retain their rides, and mimimise any upheaval.

Not like Gordon is riding any of them.

Just seen an interview with CPS & they stated exactly that, it was their wish for the existing jockeys to be retained.

He rides live ones too?

Ouch.

Not any more.

Hollie Doyle has just won 5 on the bounce at Kempton, with one more ride to come.

Amazing.

There'll be a few run-ups for the bookies there I'd imagine.

Ha, got laid at 15/1 earlier on betfair, now 5/2 everywhere

edit.  looks like it was best priced 13/2 overnight (with Sky obv).

Ooh, so close, thought she had the six-timer there.

BREAKING: One year suspension for Gordon Elliott, with the last six months suspended. He has agreed not to attend race meetings for six months. Suspension to begin on 9 March.

Hollie has a genuine chance of becoming champion jockey this season I think. Last season Hill's got it wrong putting her in off +70 on the handicap 

10-1 seems fine.

Oisin says he's going for it again but who knows how the establishment will react to last year's happenings?

Buick only had a crack in the autumn because he was still close enough in a weird year and he was just happy to be busy again after a long injury. I don't see him doing the Friday evening Newcastle trips for eight rides in 0-55s again this time round.

Curtis's chances have not been improved by the Johnston link-up for me. I'd say that'll hamper him if anything and it may take him down south for too many festivals for him to run up the numbers.

I can see Hollie and her boyf finishing 1-2 in either order.

Thanks Mr W.

[arbboy]

Seems about right as a punishment to me for the offense.

[Marky147]

Definitely.

Misses all spring festivals, but staff don't lose out anymore than they already have.

[Marky147]

Thanks Mr W.

Good luck all who can get on!
