@batcountry1980 Those serious REM guys that have to pretend nothing after Document is any good have one of the most exhausting jobs in music

I love a lot of music, I listen to music constantly, but, personally, I know nothing else like Nightswimming by R.E.M. What that song captures, and it’s different for every listener, it does it in a way that hits harder than any other song. It’s so moving it’s a form of magic

This is how I see Q1. Probably got Xintong too low but will pay to find out and back Jones at 2/1+ in that match. Kyren at 7/4 and Allen at 11/2 both make appeal.

What am I missing about Impaire Et Passe? His form over fences is not as strong as Croke Park's (IEP has to find 5+ lengths with him as well). Are people hooked on his hurdles form last year? He could go and win, of course, but at 5/2 or 2/1, surely you just let him win?

@Handy_Andy96 His non-Leopardstown form reads 1111121111, still 7, rated 163 over hurdles, jumped very well at Limerick. Major jockey upgrade, skipped Cheltenham…

It won’t happen for non-sporting reasons but in sporting terms at the end of this season Cobden to become stable jockey at Seven Barrows would make sense. Nicholls doesn’t have any grade 1 horses and Nico surely coming to the end soon.

With some hindsight the non runner today might’ve gone close. Winner jumped well and hit the line well but mildly disappointed he didn’t beat Croke Park easier. Impaire v disappointing, never travelled. ‘Lovely ground’ re PT on RTE

I’ve managed to avoid all your moaning this week and thus find myself pleasantly surprised by how DRF decs have held up. Now, for a quick look at the Grade 1 Scilly Isles Novices’ Chase in Eng-

@danny_TLDR @adotdack @paulfergusonJTF 4 runs was fine. The dry Oct Nov just makes 5 so difficult. And non graded novices should have a place at festival. Changing the M Pipe to a novice hcap hurdle (3 runs) might’ve done it. Can you imagine the number of plots then.

Interesting change to rulings relating to lightly-raced, non-novices….. Aux Ptits Soins (Coral Cup) & Sir des Champs (Martin Pipe) a couple of examples of horses who won in recent years who would no longer be eligible.
Jake Price@JakePriceRacing

🚨 Clarity from the BHA this morning: Non-Novices WILL have to comply with the new Qualification rules. Therefore Non-Novices also require 5 runs for a Handicap Hurdle, or 4 runs for a Handicap Chase at the Festival. All qualifying runs must be made by Sunday 23rd February.
