Always Dusty Carpet - never been beaten.

Maybe Creosote as it's good other fences.

I'm pleased to report £5 @ 25/1 on Pineau De Re!
I did have £10 on Long Run as well, but glory days.

The bookie in Leamington said I was the only winner he had paid out on!

Mine too! The running of this barbaric event and the goings on at Villa Park made for a pretty depressing afternoon sports wise
