Thx greg, would you believe I missed the PA with Blue Tooth :X

Good run by Star Rating - nothing had a chance on the outside today - I think he will win next time all things being equal

O heavens, after pointed Blue Toof out to us all...:X

Yip your horse ran a very good race considering, next time then...(tu)

Frodo
Can not believe you did not get that PA.

Shocking results today, in fact, it seems like the trend will continue all through the weekend.

Tomorrows card and the Scottsville card are minefields.
