He wasn't perfect, he made mistakes. But he was genuine. He had the best interests of the club at heart, and gave us a plethora of successful teams that we should have been thankful for.

There you go lads. Bryan has posted

Copy him and you won't go far wrong :)

FFS, why did I not listen?  >:(

Nice one bryanodand and LFCStephen, only ones to get that in the first I think.

Hopefully a sign of things to come for Colin Tizzard though, with me on Paddleyourowncanoe at a big price in the next.

The Arkle has historically thrown a few Gold Cup winners up, he certainly doesn’t lack for pace and will only be 5 next season so I’d keep him over 2 miles for now if he were mine.

If he were mine, I’d run him in the 2 1/2 mile Novice Chase at next years Festival

A really high scoring day comes to an end with loads of Fav's winning and placing.  Best of the lot though was OldFordie who scored 95 points.

4 winners and 2 x seconds with a Might Bite NAP made up his haul.  Nicely done Fordie.

36 players in total entered and not much separates the top and lower/mid table so still all very much to play for.

Here are today's scores and leaderboard. Any queries give me a shout and lets get those picks in for tomorrows racing :)
