I see there is a horse called Seabass - one of my favourite foods - so maybe I'll put a bet on it :)

I love seabass too. And Seabass is tempting as its a lady rider - Ruby Walsh's sister:)

Woohooo. Well done Neptune Collenge. Shame I only put £1 each way on as I had 41-1 odds. :yahoo: The others I backed did not do very well though.

I didn't bet after all. By the time I got round to it, the odds on Seabass were half what they were earlier. At one point I thought he was going to win, but finally finished third.

Sadly two horses died :crying: :crying:

This is why I never watch horse racing, can't handle watching horses fall! :crying:

[Linda]

It's why I prefer the flat racing.

The Derby is on at 4.00 pm

Its Grand National day today.


Has anyone got a potential winner in mind?

[Linda]

OK so who won? I didn't see any of it.

66-1 outsider Aurora's Encore. The deafening silence as it crossed the line was hilarious!

Well done team GB for team gold in the European eventing. :gold:
