To be asked to write on a proffessional horse racing site... I'm scared now...

Scared or not, if you are going to write professionally, you must learn to spell professionally. It's a minimum requirement

I'll have to break the habit of a lifetime and use my spell checker...

Thank you Tabby.

It's fair to say I do know my stuff and am a stickler for statistics but writing for the big boys ???? I'm scared now.

In the main, National Hunt and Steeple Chasing, my forte but write up's for big races such as The Grand National etc. They were apparently really Impressed with my write up for The King George at Christmas here on this forum because I gave so much Information.

The first parody you did recently about FG members in the Horse Race was excellent. I'm very glad for this achievement, oscar; it's an honour to know a Member of the Press!

Thanks Anne... It's going to take more research than I already put In but at least, being my passion and working In the Industry, I hope to be of some use.

Lady J Thank You Lady J

There are many more females In the sport these days but It was once referred to as ' The Sport of Kings....Even until recently It's been a predominantly male dominated arena. Sadly there are still many misogynists out there who truly believe that a woman can't possibly know more than them about this sport...

I'm sure you have what it takes to show them other wise!

Well, I wrote an opening piece for my analysis of The Forthcoming Grand National and have had good comments.

This Is one of them.

' Hi Julie, wonderful insight, I am waiting for a bit more info on the runners. I am also delighted we have someone who has a niche for big races and meetings. I will wait for your updates with extreme interest and then consider my own preferences. Looking forward to your weekend thoughts Friday evening.
