Double Schwartz was turned over by Cutlers Corner too. Punter should've listened to the bookie.

They still have me in tears. Just like my Dad was. Never grow tired of them. Never equalled for me.

That's given the Oaks betting a good rattle. Love that filly. #Precise

@KjsjField Yep, was a bit strange as Kipper held Tromos up rather than letting him stride on like he had previously. But obviously all was not well as he didn't race for Hobbs again.

@maxcouch Coincidentally, watched the Caraven only a couple of days ago, won by Lyphards Wish I think !

Champion 2yo Tromos trots up under the late Kipper Lynch in the Clarence House. Then he hosed up in the Dewhurst. Following The Minstrel this beauty was the next great white hope. Sadly it all went wrong in the Craven and he didn't race in the UK again. youtube.com/watch?v=4D398-…

@wayward_lad Had heard that his father was a fishmonger so I'd imagine it stemmed from that.

@maxcouch @MikeXloy4 My recollection is that when standing in the paddock he stood with his ankles together but feet turned out, resembling a kipper

Sad to learn of the passing of former good jockey John 'Kipper' Lynch. Highlights of his career were winning the Dewhurst on Tromos for Bruce Hobbs and the Irish Oaks on Olwyn for Ron Boss. God rest him.

@Betracingnation Walking a track is very different to half a ton of horse pounding into the turf.

Walking the new track for today, would have been a good idea.

Duty Free - Wish You Were Here (1986) RIP Judith Chalmers Many of us can remember Wish You Were Here, the holiday consumer series presented by Judith Chalmers. An episode of Duty Free with Keith Barron & Gwen Taylor had the Wish You Were Here team visiting the San Remo Hotel.😂

Tipperary GAA is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Liz Howard, a hugely respected figure whose lifelong contribution to Gaelic Games spanned playing, administration, media and leadership roles at the very highest level. tipperary.gaa.ie/liz-howard-rip

@amdracing Isn't he booked for a rematch with Minnie Hauk in the PoW? Would be great if it happened.

All very easy for Daryz in France. Exciting to see what he can do through the season.

@MikeParcej @NathanTheCaller Think Andy Crook was one who had his thumb chewed.

@NathanTheCaller Two and a half years before i became a racing fan, but remains one of the most horrific UK racecourse incidents ever. My understanding was that his normal groom Andy Crook was elsewhere that day. Ubedizzy only liked him. He took a dislike to his stand in groom. With no warning.

Ubedizzy Violence Day!

@MikeParcej I think he nibbled off thumbs in his time. I think he was banned in the UK after the Abernant and ended up doing well in Sweden.

@maxcouch Astonishing but very thankful that the groom only had minor injuries.

The teenagers at the @RacingPost now posting this clickbait to distract from the clusterf*ck they've made of the website.
