What is your view on this fellow......will he stay....got the weekender this week and pedigree expert Martin Stevens gives us the lowdown on Fame and Glory regarding pedigree and his chances of staying this extreme distance.....his dam a Shirley Heights mare won over 7f and a mile at 2yrs........having read F+G's pedigree there is every chance he will stay.....But whats in it for F+G.....Group 1 winner ? With his undoubted class his trainer must surely believe that he will stay.....otherwise no need to go this route.......banker or blowout ........biggest bet of the meeting 4me.........BANKER

Given the doubts over Rite of Passage's participation, I'm of the opinion that 5/2 F&G is a gift of a price.

I am on Fame & Glory at 100/30 and would be very happy to see Rite Of Passage come out what is the problem with Rite of Passage?

Think Weld just said they've had some niggling problems with him lately, make training less than straightforward. It's between the two of them imo.

Any more thoughts here?

Who's the Mrs F Hay who is part owner? Have Coolmore sold a portion or was she always there? She's bought into Cape Blanco as well, hasn't she... As **** and Cape Blanco are rated lower than some other Coolemore stars are they looking to develop a greater Jumps precence with the likes of him? Suppose So you think will be sent back down under to be their headline stud once he's proven himself Grp 1 in Europe...

ANYWAY... to the matter at hand? What is going to DEF be placed in this at a price? I'm looking to get a juicy place yankee/accumulator with:

Twice over (behind SYT)
Dubawi Gold (hehind Frankel)
Geordieland - IF it turns up and is still same force - behind ****

Any thoughts on a good priced fourth for the mix - no handicaps just group races of close weights so I know the horse is running to ability, in it to win it etc

dreamt last night that geordieland won, honest

Somerset what about Jacqueline quest for 4th selection at a price, disappointed in a conditions race last time but is surely better than that, and in an open looking Windsor Forest Stakes could go close imo.

Fascinating suggestion... WONDERED where she'd gone... is it still owned by the same poor soul who lost the 1000g because Queally steered like a drunk driver that day? Was a harsh decision...

Interesting Jockey booking as well... Don't think I'll make her my fourth in the yankee as too many questions but as an each way bet in that race it's a great call - joint 2nd rated, gets the ground she needs (judging by dam's Saddlers Wells line and slow time in the Guinneas that day)...  staggered someone hasn't stepped in and made him an offer he cannot refuse, actually: grp 1 placed, out of rock of gibraltar and a Saddlers Wells bred mare...   must be a nice French or Irish Group 1 on soft ground waiting to be nabbed for her and lovely acquisition for a breeding outfit... let's hope Johnny M gets a tune out of her - owner is due some luck.

Yeah just seen Johhny was booked to ride, must be worth an interest.
