To what extent are Ballydoyle/Coolmore Dart Throwers ?

well if they are just darts throwers,they are throwing them like phil taylor

its all to do with the breathing imo , big lungs and the fix 'their' asthma . all legally of course

I really do think they plan their entries in meticulous detail especially so for their group class horses...Coolmore seems to be a brilliantly run operation with huge attention given to detail.

War Envoy is the best mile handicapper he's ever trained though.......

I would hazard a guess that any horse named BALLYDOYLE would be a classic prospect in their opinion, no matter what he does today.

thats what one of the owners hinted at yesterday

The problem i have with the race is that Ballydoyle is racing against colts as her main opposition...Despite the fillies allowance i'm not sure that she'll be good enough unless she's made considerable improvement.My heart says back her,my head says just watch the race.

I'm pleased they are not throwing knives at me.

When a pot is for the taking then take it, any decent 1m4f horse will easily stay 2miles.

War Front is a strange one, but then if you get a horse in your hands who you think is good but becomes rated 105 or less, then it would be rude not to try a handicap.

the 80s was the golden era for darts;eric bristow,john lowe,bob anderson,john part,cliff lazerenko,keith deller,ceri morgan who had an idiosyncratc throwing style,bobby george to name just a few.

dexys midnight runners even had a hit single about jockey wilson.

When you have so many top class horses to pick from you can afford to drop some of them in class. If you only have one miler rated over 100, there is always a temptation to run in a Group race.

throwing darts at races are the boys in blue and especially the boys in red

eric bristow wore a red shirt

This horse was probably having a prep run for The Gold Cup next year
