Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for March 23, 2023

there goes the betted money (borrowed from Flo) yet again

you sure it’s a horse, to begin with.

Poor Andy, lost again

Well at least Andy’s horse is plodding along. I figured it would be wheezing up the track.

Another broken dream on a broken Horse !

Andy’s info source has failed again.

The sound of loser.

On the bright side, the horse is headed in the right direction.

If you could on the loser, Andy would be a wealthy man.

I am surprised that Andy’s horse is not coughing and wheezing.

Andy is unlikely to a-plod this performance.

Plodding horses… He’ll bet them always…. [Apologies to Mick and Keith]

Its Barney Google and Spark Plug!

Never bet on a cart horse.

Did Andy pick a draft horse?

Andy follows horses that follow horses!

A thunderous aplods is heard at the racetrack today.

Umm, all the horses are running in the wrong direction.

I think that horse is plodding against him.

Andy wishes he could throw that horse in the canal

Did anyone check to see if Bing Crosby owns that horse?

At its last few workouts it was timed with a calendar instead of a stopwatch!

Don’t forget the wheezing

You win some. You lose more.

Once again, Andy picks a sure loser. (Are we sure that’s not two people in a horse costume?)

That first panel could represent the back fire of “Thunder Bolt”, an extremely gassed-up horse hepped-up on fiber.
