    Thanks Scotty. Haven't seen you around these parts for a while (if ever!).

    I guess it was just a matter of time before we hit on a topic to exploit your expertise!

    I'm going for an unlikely forecast - if it comes off though, i'll pay for everyone to meet up and have a partay. :lol:

    Yes, that's how long the odds are :P

    One of mine fell at the first, another near the end and I never heard the other two mentioned.

    The forecast didn't come through... Joes Edge went early on and Kelami finished in 13th...

    My ร‚ยฃ5 ballycassidy win bet looked nailed on til she was pulled up!

    Still, I won ร‚ยฃ15 on McKelvey coming in second spot.
