I'd like to find one trainer, stable lad/lass, owner etc. who isn't bullish going into a race like the Guineas to be honest. It's like hearing people say 'he's been laid out for this' when talking about something the Wokingham Handicap when it's painfully obvious 95% of the field have been laid out for the race, yet the 'experts' still roll out the same old cliche year after year. :_|

Yes mate, left Twice Over 25 lengths behind carrying 3 stone extra - apparently, he even managed to catch a pigeon at the end of the gallops! It is all systems go for the 2000 Guineas! :P

was meant to be better than Authorized (same connections) and 10/1 for the Guineas before it had raced!
was absolutely woeful when he actually raced as a 3 year old.

Greek Well (Stoute) and Pescatorio (O'Brien) two more hype jobs who didn't quite live up to expecations! However, it must be stressed that it was more gallops gossip rather than their respective trainers who hyped them beyond belief - I think I am right in saying GW was lame when the gamble on him for the Derby began! :^0 And then O'Brien came out with something like 'Pescatorio hasn't been on the grass yet' when asked about him after he was backed into something like 20/1 for the 2000 Guineas a few years back! :0

jon b, it will easily win a small race at somewhere like Nottingham just as a warm up, make sure you get on then at antepost odds as the odds will collapse on the day - trust me on this.

I don't but keep an eye out for a colt called Snaafi Dancer trained I think by John Dunlop - it cost a serious amount of money and is burning up the gallops!

While I can confirm that Killer Instinct is working like the second coming, I have to tell you that they have an even better one called Touch N Fly. Keep your eyes peeled.

Curtain Time coming along nicely for the Derby, whilst Western Verse is the Coventry winner this year judging by his home work. Looks like Cecil is in for a good year! ;)
