i dont i just was interested to know if anyone was in to it as my dad has always had a flutter an my OH is the same! tis nice they have something in common! and i had that soldier of fortune on satday or was it sunday anyways it won! whoo!

My last horse was an ex race horse, National Hunt, he is retired now he had too many injuries from his racing days!

I like a bet but know how much I can afford to lose if that makes sense! Grew up with racing as my Grandad has watched it since I cant remember when! My OH gambles as do alot of his mates, he gets carried away and it can be worrying so have to keep an eye on it.

Cant beat a day at the races if you get nice weather!

They really are beautiful creatures especially thoroughbreds, love them, change your mind about buying one as they constantly drain you of any cash!

As for the gambling, yeah like you say great when you win but wins are far and few between and my OH has lost ALOT of money that could of been spent on more worth while things - like me lol!

yeah in agreement boogie!

all my mates had horses while growing up an we always used to gan to the farm to muck out etc! loved it! closest thing i have to a horse is my bunny! lol i lovet he smell of straw an hay! haha <- possibly quite strange i know!

Funnily enough I am allergic to straw and hay - mad as being as I have always had horses and worked as a groom and instructor - thats love for you lol!

Horse Racing is a great gambling business. But i am not gamble, i like watch racing. It is amazing animal with great strength.
