    Evening all, it's been a very long time and can see things have changed a lot around here. I may be coming temporarily out of retirement for next week and then back into hiding.

    Hi all,

    Hope all is well and everyone has had a good past couple of months.

    Been a busy couple of months for me and I've found that I can still enjoy Horse racing without a bet and have been putting time back into studying selections.

    Won't be posting everyday as before but will put selections up as and when I can. Stakes will be put up as before but are just virtual stakes as such.

    Today's Selections:

    14:00 Haydock - No Hassle Hoff @ 6.00 (Bet365 - 3 Places)
    15:25 Ascot - Red Starlight @ 4.00 (Bet365 - 3 Places)
    15:40 Lingfield - Eirene @ 8.50 (Bet365 - 3 Places)
    16:00 Ascot - George Of Hearts @ 15.00 (Bet365 - 5 Places)
    17:05 Naas - Blairmayne @ 7.50 (Bet365 - 4 Places)
    17:15 Nottingham - Gleeful @ 6.50 (Bet365 - 3 Places)

    Stakes:

    No Hassle Hoff - £50 Win
    Red Starlight - £70 Win
    Eirene - £30 Win
    George Of Hearts - £15 Each Way
    Blairmayne - £40 Win

    Thanks all, I'm doing really well. House is nearly sold, 6/7 weeks until completion so exciting times.

    Came 5th in the end. Always the way with a good each way that it misses out by one place. From watching the race, it's got a winning race in it soon.
  • The Unknown / TU123
    All the best Steve. Great person and no doubt that you will beat this and get back on the road to good health.

    Hi all,

    Was going to check in yesterday and offer my well wishes but was caught up in the festivities. Thank you for the kind words, it's really appreciated and touching. Some great, genuine people on here and wish you all nothing but success and good fortunes in everything that you do.

    Unfortunately, I will not be coming back on a regular basis (That also includes for Cheltenham). It's bizarre, my willpower is unbeliveable aside from with gambling. Kicked alcohol and the desire has completely gone and with everything else I give up the desire goes immediately. Not the case with gambling. I can go a few weeks/months where I'm steady but then I want to go crazy and bet everything away and more than I've got. I've enjoyed some absolutely unbelieveable times but the lows are far more devestating and severe. I'm enjoying watching racing every so often these days without having an interest and enjoying more of what I want to do such as walking and got back into writing (My memoirs won't be published anytime soon).

    I've taken the hard decision of seperating with my long term partner of nearly 9 years a few weeks back, the hardest thing I've ever had to do considering everything she's done for me the past several years and she's been an absolute rock but it was no longer working. We've come to an agreement financially once the house is sold but I'll be happy paying all my debts off and everything else she can have.

    2019 is going to be a great year and I'm sure I'll lurk on the board every couple of months to see what's happening but there's plenty of good tipsters on here and good judges so it's fine hands and Mugz will continue to lead this great ship.

    I'll leave you all with one last winning post below (give some of the winnings to a good cause if you can):

    12:30 Chepstow - Kingsplace
    13:50 Leopardstown - Daly Tiger
    14:00 Wolverhampton - Scrafton
    14:15 Wetherby - Forest Bihan
    14:50 Chepstow - Kansas City Chief
    15:00 Leopardstown Polidam

    Hope you and everyone close to you has a great end to 2018 and may 2019 be a year full of prosperity and happiness for you all.

    Can't disagree with anything you've said. Can't see this country getting better anytime soon. Want to start a family one day as well but hard to envisage a bright future for the young ones now.
  • MJ's Selections 17/18


    If I can get one of these Lucky bets to hit then yes definitely.

    I've got a cousin starting a Jockey apprenticeship in Newmarket in October/November so hopefully have another good avenue for some tips. Will definitely let everyone know as and when I hear anything from him.

    All good thanks, not a massive fan of the flat at the best of times and been that busy at work not really had a chance to put the usual hours of studying in. In the process of selling our house as well and moving sticks to the countryside.
