Good wishes to JT.

My tv fund stands at €34.13 so I need a few 20-1 winners today.

Best of luck to JT.  Sounds serious, but hopefully things will turn out OK.

8 handicaps so far, winner returned with SPs of of 28/1, 16/1, 33/1, 25/1, 25/1, 50/1, 16/1, 14/1.

The best idea I had all week was to concentrate on the Grade Ones, although I went and broke my own rule in the Kim Muir and backed Romanesco.

Hope JT makes a full recovery. Probably the top amateur over the last 10-15 years.

Haven't followed the juveniles that much but I would instinctively look to take on any Irish runners.

I wouldn't have backed Romanesco because in the 62 handicap chases at the festival since 1997, not one 7-y-o or older carrying 11-0 or more (including many fancied runners) had won. Until yesterday, when this stat put me off backing Same Difference, which I fancied!

Best wishes to JT.

Oh, so what you're saying is that they're the only WINNERS you've backed. That's a fish of a different colour.

They were "the only other horses I backd" yes. hence why I said only other horses I backed along with Bobs Worth.
