Pic: “Mr Ashford’s EASTER STORY.”
“I’m hoping an Easter egg is on it’s way, possibly to a Mr
Ashford or even Mr Ashforth. “
“EASTER already? I know it is
because Waitross sent me an Easter card. I’m hoping that an Easter egg is on
it’s way, possibly for Mr Ashcroft or Mr Ashworth.
“It’s a strange thing, Easter. As
you know, Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the paschal full moon is
different from the actual full moon and moves around a lot, creating havoc with
the production of racing fixtures and Easter eggs.
“You’d have thought that if Jesus
was born on a particular day, December 25th he’d have died and been
resurrected on particular days too, but he seems to have risen again on various
dates, from March 22 to April 25.
“You never know when he is going to
pop up. I hope that isn’t blasphemous, probably unlike the boy at my school who
used to walk around with his arms spread out, saying “What a way to spend
Easter.”
JMC The Life & Times of Jesus Christ. The shocking cruelty burdened upon and suffered by Jesus. How far have we come since? Not far in the cruelty stakes. The punishment stakes.
The four gospels report that Jesus was crucified by Pontius Pilate, who governed Roman Judea from 26 to 36 AD/CE .
Isaac Newton was one of the first astronomers to estimate the date of the crucifixion and suggested Friday, April 3, 34 AD/CE.[40][76] In 1990 astronomer Bradley E. Schaefer computed the date as Friday, April 3, 33 AD/CE.[77] In 1991, John Pratt stated that Newton's method was sound, but included a minor error at the end. Pratt suggested the year 33 AD/CE as the answer.[40] Using the completely different approach of a lunar eclipse model, Humphreys and Waddington arrived at the conclusion that Friday, April 3, 33 AD/CE was the date of the crucifixion.[78][41][79]

Published on 20 May 2012
“I don’t envy Paul Bittar if he’s
still leading the BHA in 2038, let alone 2285, because in 2038 Easter Sunday
will be on April 25 and in 2285 on March 22. My advice is to resign in 2037,
before Easter gets out of hand.
JMC The life and times of Paul Bittar
Bittar, 42, was born in Wagga Wagga, which is famous in racing as the birthplace
of legendary jockey Scobie Breasley. He is the second Australian to take charge
of the day-to-day running of British racing. Almost a decade ago, Greg Nichols
stepped into the same role when the controlling body was operating under the
name of the British Horseracing Board.
The stumbling block for Paul Bittar as is same for most of the others who regulate and govern British Horseracing is their 'Bloodhorse Illiteracy' . Paul does not belong in the Equus Zone. He does not know how to carry a whip, leave alone use one. To attempt even to advise others on the subject. A no, no, no. Advisors to deligate within the Equus Zone

“With Easter such a moveable feast,
it’s difficult to know when you can expect an Easter egg.
“To be on the safe side, it’s best
to keep buying those small ones, wrapped in multi-coloured foil, with bright
yellow centres, that sit on newsagents’ counters the whole year round.

The History of Easter Eggs.
“They’re sickly sweet and the
wrapper sticks to the egg then to your
fingers but, sometimes, it’s a case of any egg in a storm.
“As you’ll remember if you were at Cheltenham for the
Gold Cup in 1929 or 1930, or at Aintree for the 1929 Grand National, Easter
Hero was one of the all-time great chasers.
“He strolled home in both Gold Cups
and at Aintree he beat 64 rivals when carrying 12st 7lb. Unfortunately, there
was a record 65th rival, the 100-1 winner Gregalach. There’s always
something, isn’t there?
“There are plenty of horses in
training named Easter something and you’d have thought at least one of them
would be racing this weekend but none of them are.
“Instead, there are 22 horses, none
of them with any connection to Easter (apart from LEVITATE), Contesting the
William Hill Lincoln, as they were going to last Saturday until the weather
forecaster stepped in.
“I offered my thoughts on the race
last week and it’s not my fault if you didn’t read them. As our teachers used
to say, I’m not going to tell you again.
“Anyway, there’s the Dubai World
Cup to consider, a splendid race which I thought I’d cracked until they
abandoned dirt in favour of Tapeta – an altogether trickier proposition from an
American perspective.
“How would the mighty CIGAR, winner
of the inaugural running of the World Cup in 1996, have fared on Tapeta?
“Last year Bob Baffert had
a heart attack in Dubai a few days before his GAME ON DUDE finished 12th
of 13 in the World Cup, so perhaps it’s not surprising this year he’s left it
to Bill Mott, Dale Romans and the once English Graham Motion to fly the US
flag.
" I expect Mott's ROYAL DELTA to fly it better this time
than she did last time. So a little each-way on ROYAL DELTA, followed by the
most enormous lay bet on RED CADEAUX, at 25-1; £4,000 to lose £100,000, shall
we say?
" RED CADEAUX is a terrific racehorse, high class and
versatile, at distances from 12 furlongs to 18 furlongs but 10 furlongs is a
step too far, by which I mean not far enough. Ed Dunlop's great servant will
run respectably but there's no way he'll win.

28-03-2013 Red Cadeaux gets Stall 2 for Dubai World Cup
“I didn’t have many options left so I went for stall two as I thought it would be better on the inside than way out wide – I’m not too worried though as I have world class jockey, Gerald Mosse, in charge of the whole show” -Ed
"If he does, I suggest the Indian approach and rioting until
the stewards declare RED CADEAUX a non-runner. It's an interesting idea, as is
the Cypriot approach to bank deposits, which has attracted a lot of criticism
but has some merit. If the British banks had refused access to our money, and
taken some of it as a sort of service charge, think how much healthier most of
our betting records would look.
"Whatever happens at Meydan, I do hope I get one of those
Easter eggs, preferably with Smarties or chocolate drops in them, and loose,
not in a packet. We can dream."
J Margaret Clarke Turfcall Comment
Yes Yes Yes RED CADEAUX (second) 28-1 made a race of it with ANIMAL KINGDOM (Winner).
RED CADEAUX's trainer Ed Dunlop interviewed by Ch4 Emma Spencer shortly after the race, white with shock and excitement all at the same time.
