Anybody off racing over the festive period or got anything they fancy running?

Im getting up in 5.5 hours to go from Preston to Kempton for 2 days then hopefully Chepstow if its on or Newbury if not.

The King George is the best bit of xmas for me and this years looks a cracker.

Had a bet on Silviniano Conti in the King George at Kempton.

Well picked sir,I had a sneaking suspicion hed win so I sensibly backed Dynaste instead!
One win,one place and a thumping hangover are all Ive got to show for yesterday.
I'll give it an hour then back to the course for day 2.

For the sake of the thread that im sure is no more than a personal diary-

Day 2 at Kempton went very well with a free 50 bet offer from a tinternet bookie helping towards a handsome daily profit.

Day 3 took me to Chepstow for an impossible Welsh national card,a healthy loss insued,this was where the planned racing ended.

Day 4/today/ started at 02.15 this morning for an alarm call to drive from Chepstow to Holyhead,this seemed like a good idea at 20.00 in the hotel bar.
A ferry to Dublin and a day at Leopardstown followed with a wonderful win for Hurricane fly n a small profit for me.

Tomorrow sees me marooned in a countrywith no racing so a stupidly long drive to another country is planned for an evening greyhound meeting in Londonderry.
The next day another stupidly long drive for new years eve in Punchestown will round off a pb 6 days on the trot-maybe.
If there are any Irish phers fancy a pint while im in tour please get in touch.
