Come on Kimberely Monday,Vaal sand Tuesday,Sprint crazy Wednesday,Vaal Yuk Thursday,PE looks half decent Friday then a boring looking "showcase" card at the BigT Saturday..

Is this part of the master plan to chase away the invaders from Austrailia and Veitnam?

Turner Classic Movies will be getting tuned in tomorrow..

Rant over sorry for the negativity...

Tremendous win by CINNAMON SUGAR at the Vaal. When I noticed it been backed I had my £2.00 each way on.

Hibs you still think I'm smoking something funny when I said Cape Racing the strongest in the country....Far better than up here in Gauteng.

Hibs I will be absolutely honest in my assessment of horseracing in SA..it SUCKS...I dont even look at the results of the races my horses run in anymore ..in fact I dont even read the odd email I get from the stables to let you know your horse is running..all I do is make sure the trainers get paid on time so the poor horse has food.

oscar come on Bud - it seems like everyday more and more guys like you and me who love this game are just going through the motions - it's been a trying year for many of us - maybe the thing to do is to try and remember a good day at the course to rekindle the excitment - I feel just like you do it seems but I hope you get what you deserve and have a nice string of winners or a really good piss-up with good company in the box

Mr H, sure it was either you or Oscar that posted that you hated going to the stables these days, seing horses tied up in cramped stables all day?

Well seen some nice snaps of Justin Snaith taking some of his string to the beach for a splash about and thought if only this was viable for all horses ...

Hibs and Mr H..what used to be a wonderful sport and passion for me has been kicked outa me so hard ..there are many in the game I have tremendous respect for but the few that take without giving do such a good job of it makes one sit back and say when and how do I get out with dignity and your head held high.

Like you Oscar, I have grown tired on the bullshit, lies, deception etc that passes for a sport that I held close to my heart. This is my last crop of runners, having halved my horses in training in the last 6 months. No 2 or 3 year olds and once the current crop retire that is it for me.
