The Sport of Kings & Equine Matters šŸ

Also, just watched the race we were on about. :eek:

Are you saying the horse got up again and jumped the last fence??[/quote]

Yeah he got up and raced on, scrambled over the last and came to a stop near the winning line, with one of those fractures where you think the leg will surely come off altogether. Dreadful scenes.

I saw SS catch a fella in Clonmel with ā€œHeads I win, tails you loseā€ he had your mans 50 his pocket before the coin hit the counter. there was war!

I just put it into that bag of mine, Runty. You know the one with ā€˜Swagā€™ written on it. I donā€™t like to blow my own trumpet but I had a bag of sand I took off Harry The Dog in there too.

[quote=ā€œSHANNONSIDER**ā€]Have you ever seen the Cincinnati Kid, Dunph?

Iā€™m a bit like the Lancy character only better looking.[/quote]

Canā€™t say iā€™ve ever seen it SS**ā€¦

I can only imagine the scenes in the stands as that poor creature came trundling along.*

Iā€™d like to think that SS* was gentleman enough to remove his blazer and place it over the eyes of the nearest woman or child at this momentā€¦

How do you survive in polite company without having seen seminal works like The Cincinnati Kid, Dunph?

I allowed a couple of damsels to sob uncontrollably on my shoulder, Dunph.

My fountain of knowledge on track greyhound racing and fantasty premier league soccer tends to get me out of most tight corners SS**ā€¦

Iā€™m glad you helped out the distraught ladies. Were i there iā€™d have been even more accomodating.

Are you enjoying your copy of the Sporting Press, Dunph? Even carrying that newspaper around with you will be met with nods of approval from other gentlemen of the leash.

Generally i only get to read it for about 5-10mins a day, though saying that i spent 30mins reading it after first purchasing it. Thereā€™s quite a bit to take in.

Iā€™m counting the days to next Thursady till i get my hands on the next edition so i suppose thatā€™s a good sign.

When iā€™m next at a greyhound meeting, iā€™ll consider leaving it dangling out of the arse pocket, so that they know iā€™m a serious player.

To complete the look Iā€™d be quite willing to post you on my National Coursing Meeting wooly hat Dunph which will give you a kudos other head garments donā€™t bestow in these situations.

Which advertisement in the Sporting Press grabbed your attention most? The stud masters are very original when it comes to advertisements.

The stud advertisements took up half the paper. I suppose the one that really got my attention was an advertisment for Sean Dunphyā€™s sire Droopyā€™s Scolari. They made some very convincing arguments in favour of this specimen servicing your lucky bitch. Heā€™s produced some fine offspring in fairness to him.

Our own little mare came second in the maiden hurdle, not much work done with her is recent weeks in an effort to get her handicap mark before bringing her home to grass for a little while. We are really confused by her, sometime we think she is poor, yesterday she looked the partā€¦

Emma is looking lovely yet again today

This is going to be great. Oxx was nearly in tears there on the BBC preview.

COME ON FAME AND GLORY!!!

Stars all the way

What a horse

Some scenes there.

Hope he goes for the Breeders Cup now.

The BBC crew seemed fairly sure he will beā€¦

Well done to Sea the Stars, how he handles all this pressure is beyond me. Cool as a cucumber in the post race interview there so he was.

College Causeway and Sea the Stars in the one year-weā€™re being spoiled.
