Why have Aiden's horses been running so poorly? I am not of the view that Steinbeck, SNA, RVW and the rest are suddenly bad horses, but they have all run miles below form. Has the stable got a bug or something? AOA ran well, but he is one of a number that have mainly just run poorly. It will be a long season for you I fear if things don't perk up a bit soon. |

I've started thinking along similar lines...
End of last year it looked like they'd sweep all before in the 3yo division and it just hasn't happened; they've been particularly poor since the Derby weekend, most not even looking like winning and being thoroughly eclipsed by Darley-bred horses. Have we a sea change on our hands or is it a blip? We all remember 2004 and poor old Spencer, I guess it just doesn't happen every year. FWIW the older horses seem fine and the 2yo's have been ok early doors... |

Heartbroken for Age of Aquarius?
The best horse won on that day. I think it's too early to call it a sea change, Ballydoyle are struggling at the moment though. Still can't see the dry spell lasting the rest of the season though, Aidan will turn it around. |

Hopefully this trend will be broken by Starspangledbanner in the Jubilee, surely O'Brien isn't going bad enough to have send this one backwards...
