@LauraKingsays This has become a platform that really feeds on showing you click bait and rage bait drama to farm engagement. Definitely not as fun or truly social as it once was

@StephenMillar1 Hey Stephen, a nice morning here indeed, turf a go!

[Henry Dembski @HenryDembski]

@ashley_mailloux @LDMcPherson @SPNnation74 Few I like today race 3 Imperial War, faced better, claimed by high % trainer Sire was a fast one and Dam won 275k. Long Shot? Race 5 Can’t Argue that. Improving since claim for top J/T, adding blinks. Good Luck!

@tarmacadam7 My god, that’s a time commitment

[Doug McPherson @LDMcPherson]

Nine race card referred to as a marathon; the European mind cannot comprehend a North American Super Saturday-type card

[At The Races @AtTheRaces]

We have a marathon card from @Southwell_Races this evening and @LeonnaMayor was trackside to preview her fancies...

Join us for all nine races from 4.10pm - live on @SkySportsRacing!

[Doug McPherson @LDMcPherson]

Another excellent effort from MEW N ME to be a charging third by 3/4 lengths behind two Casse entrants; very proud of this pint-sized filly and the season she’s having

[Doug McPherson @LDMcPherson]

Rest in Peace to Nathan and congrats to the team on a lovely win

[Robert Geller @WoodbineGeller]

Sol de Verano @Jockey_ReyesLR sprouts the wings of an angel in the nightcap to soar home a winner as @WoodbineTB remembers trainer Nathan Squires.
