Cheers ritchie, Thumb up you're still allowed a pop at the RU Six Nations if you want one.

Cheltenham Festival in March - there are 28 races scheduled, so make any changes you want before the first race on the first day

OK all, I've done my homework and I'm still in need of updates from AmChaff and jjamez for the football at least by end of play today and Rugby League by Thursday (even though it finishes in October) please.

Thankyou everyone else. I've still a few gaps to fill myself.

thanks jjamez Thumb up

PS - Cheltenham it's the number of horses that win that are not Irish trained that I'm after, not the trainer, unless you only want to count Balding's winners?

Might be the only non-Irish trainer at the meeting for all I know. Whistle

Speedway Grand Prix is an individual event running across the Summer, not a team event - https://www.fimspeedway.com/sgp/riders

Cheers, theo, it's got to be Ireland for the 6 Nations eggcatching tournament. And how did you manage to get the time to do all the research to set this up? It took me over an hour to get my answers together. Well done!!!

You've got the odd hour or two to fill when your retired and folk are offering you work as a "Consultant" that never actually materialises ritchie. Thanks for joining in. Thumb up

Just waiting for AmChaff to decide if she's still got the will to live and a couple of corrections on jjamez's homework now. I've even filled in the gaps in my predictions.
