“A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries."

I have finished grinding my teeth, and I sort of accept Frankie’s apology with his admission on Sunday, that he should have come 2nd. Saturday was a bit of a blur and my eye definitely came off the ball, as I was also running a near-£1k Sweepstake that was effectively paying 17/2 to the winner with 2/1 about 2nd. Doing it on Zoom and finding a fair and incontrovertible methodology for drawing a series of random numbers was not easy. By then the qualifying had started in Austria for the Formula 1 and Tyrell Hatton was doing his best to stymie me, by playing in-and-out in Detroit.

Sunday came and went in a bit of a blur and my opinion of Max Verstappen soared when he decided he didn’t need to show his solidarity with BLMUK, an organisation that intends to be “guided by a commitment to dismantling imperialism, capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy and the state structures that disproportionately harm black people in Britain and around the world’.  Like Max however, I found it heartbreaking to realise the terrible damage done to Lewis, who has so obviously been held back throughout his career and never been given any chances by the capitalist, white supremacists at Mercedes or indeed by any of the other sponsors, teams, sports bodies and the Principality of Monte Carlo where he is a kitchen porter.

As predicted Lewis lost – and overall the results weren’t quite as bad as I feared – and here they are.

Thursday – Sunday: The Rocket Mortgage Classic: Tyrell Hatton 16/1  +5 – Kevin Na 40/1 -2 Total +3

Annual domain registrations, site hosting, software licences, form guides, research costs and a host of other minor and but not inconsequential outgoings are the burden for all website owners.

Even the smallest donation can make the difference between the Off and On switch.

It’s not just that once in a while we actually prove accurate, and you possibly make a bit of pocket money, but occasionally, we might perhaps suggest a view that could possibly change someone’s mind. For the better.

That’s a lot of Maybes and Possiblies, but sometimes we have to try and change a plan or encourage them to move a mountain, and if that means we make you smile, or shout with anger, or shake with laughter, then Huzzah!

That’s your donation that did that. Thank You.
