I gave it a solid time but not what I might have expected. Does the proximity of Wimbledon Hawkeye arouse any doubt about your figure?https://community.betfair.com/horse_antepost/go/thread/view/94098/31851495/nunthorpe-stakes-group-1?post_id=564232485#564232485We'll have to agree to differ on that Figgis.

Both will need to improve a bit to become possible Guineas winners. TLIW's future will probably be over 12f though and he'd only need to improve a chttps://community.betfair.com/horse_antepost/go/thread/view/94098/31851495/nunthorpe-stakes-group-1?post_id=564232477#564232477Aomori City had been my top but was surpassed a couple of pounds by The Lion In Winter the other day.
