I fucking hate this stupid cunting fucking dickhead code.

Brought down - it's like allowing a windmill on the 17th at Augusta. Drill Sergeant win or place would have been very fucking handy indeed and there was no indication he wasn't going to fail in at least placing. However, for the winner to be another former Johnston horse, albeit a lesser light is just so bitter a fucking pill. And as for Celestial Halo, well, my sympathies there are with Harry Skelton but does it always have to be a valiant fucking short head? Two fucking miles and it loses by less than six inches? At Cheltenham they go an extra furlong, he wins. Fuck it, an extra ten yards, he wins. The extra burden of my cash and fuck it, he loses.

I'm ahead for the day and yet I'm fucking seething. Mind you, I think a bit of that is down to the shoulder...

Fuck me, that Celestial Halo short head grated.

Who won this, btw?

just a three runner field and between them only two winners were found but for Bert who found them both it was enough to take the win, well played Bert

Bit of a bad day at the office for all of us , but I gladly accept...

Wouldn't disregard Silver By Nature in a bog at Aintree either at a pinch - wouldn't be the first multiple national winner that can dig a hoof in
