Aintree Festival 2018

[Togo]

Started a new one after the spelling mistake in the header yesterday. Blank drawn yesterday so can only get better. Some good racing today, but a couple of large fields make it even harder to choose. Good luck if you have a go.

Well done Volts....My old favourite almost nabbed you mind, I mentioned Pleasant Company in despatches earlier. I always watch for it because it finishes like that in every race. Think I may put my "pencil" away till next weekend now. Take "She who must be obeyed" out for a bit of lunch on Monday with my winnings. We have had a sad week after our beloved dog Cassie made her exit on Tuesday, and have both been crestfallen all week. The worst being when the casket and ashes were brought back on Wednesday, and the staff at the vets sent cards and condolences. Even more galling is, just after that I was getting "hate mail" from the usual "holier than thou" right here. God willing we can do it again next year.
