    Lord Du Mensil 16/1 is my only bet for today in the Welsh Grand National, backed him each way for this and the ground should be no problem. Optimistic that I'll get a run for my money.

    Have a good day folks, keep warm.

    FA Cup was always special because matches kicked off at the same time.
    Since they all now kick off at different times it has become a non event.
    The premier league also schedule matches during the week following the round so managers play weakened sides in the cup.

    solution for me would to keep Saturday as FA Cup day and play all replays a few days later like they used to do.

    Racing today looks very tricky - Yala Enki and Cloudy Glen each way in the Welsh National.
    There seems to be quite a move for Secret Reprieve though. Amour de Nuit can go close in the 3.30 with the claimer on board

    No replays no mate, ET, then pens to decide them, which is good imo but obviously not true to the traditional FA Cup that we all remember

    Saturday fling is an e/w Patent. Think all three should be suited by conditions and have a squeak!

    13:25 Chepstow - Yggdrasil
    15:10 Chepstow - Truckers Lodge
    15:30 Kempton...- One True King

    (Best of luck today with your bets everyone! :emoticon-0167-beer:)

    What a brilliant opener there on ITV - two horses going full pelt to the last fence both saw a stride and both flew it. Great stuff <ok>

    Interesting renewal of the Finale next with the horse tipped up by Boris/Eddie/Benoit/Whoeverhescallednow for the Triumph, Nassalam, plus Adagio who has looked decent to date and a dark horse in Houx Gris. Should be very interesting

    Great from Adagio - I was on Nassalam, so Boris will probably blame me for it losing <laugh>

    I had another COVID test on Thursday, they said I would not hear from them if it was negative, And I haven't :) Still have the cough, but I feel that I'm out of danger now. I have a hospital procedure at 8-30 tomorrow, which won't be pleasant but may be informative re one of my other problems <ok>
