Oh Yeah lots of shit goes on....been reading again about Barney Curly and some of the stunts he would pull,and the
work and planning that went into them...fuckin hell could could over throw Governments easier... :lol:
I’ve never heard of him but it always makes me wonder when ya see the likes of a jockey coming off a horse in a flat race.
Barney Curley .
His book is the one of the best I’ve ever read .

This is just one of the stories.

Yeah sounded it mate and always nice to hear of someone getting one over the bookies :lol:

Didn’t know he died. Only just heard of his existence so to me he was less than a week old :lol:

I rarely read racing now. Fully convinced it’s bent and gave up gambling (except the grand National) a few years back now coz it was becoming a problem

Yeah mate , you always knew in his later training days when he was going to have it off .
If the money came late and Declan Murphy was up you knew it would win .
Proper job jockey .
