another total guess job , but over 350 folks read the 2.30 guessing game and they even picked the winner ,
SO cmon guys get yr guesses up pre race lets see if you can do the double ,
the tin man is one of the most dissapointing horses in training , its a maybe next time horse , it lost all signs of speed last year both in the race and at the end where in the past its always had a slight kick if this gets back to form it will be the biggest return since lazerus got from his pallet , anyone else with a view is welcome ,,, cmon get them in early

Judicial has never been in better form, gets on well with this jockey and is probably best over 6f these days. The 3lb penalty is a concern but two of the first three last year carried the penalty and had The Tin Man (and Oxted) in behind.
i have to say just for a second or two i thought the tin man will just about quicken ; just a bit unlucky a classier horse with a better kick ,
yeah, the tin man" one of the most disappointing horses in training"
won 3 gp 1's , one gp 3, and now just placed in a gp 3 aged 8...…. oh and won over £1.2 m in prize money.
the owners must be gutted …...

the horse last year was poor , it was punted and fancied a lot of times ,,, im fully aware of its record , , im glad it has been brought back to fitness its been a long and frustrating time for the trainer , there must have been a physical problem ; but the trainer seems not to actually speak to the media to explain ,

More has made it all the merrier for the multiple members of the Fred Archer Racing syndicate, who have shared the sort of ride an owner could spend millions on without coming close to thanks to their redoubtable old-stager The Tin Man.
Saturday's run in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes marked the sixth year in succession he has competed for Group 1 honours and judged on the way he stuck-on for seventh, you would not put it past the eight-year-old visiting the winner's enclosure again this season.
"He's the most magical horse to own," says Jan Hopper, who along with husband Peter signed up when Jacko Fanshawe, the effervescent wife of Newmarket trainer James Fanshawe, offered ten shares in the horse at the end of 2013.
"For a syndicate horse he's been perfect and given us the most wonderful ride," continues Hopper. "Hardly anyone in the syndicate knew anyone else before, so we've all got to know each other. We're all from different backgrounds and different parts of the country, with different experiences in ownership. Doing it together is what has made it so special."
"Claire keeps him very sweet and that's the key," he says. "He's up against a new wave of horses every year but I can still see him competing at the same level and he shows no signs of deteriorating."
Named after Fred Archer, the former champion jockey who built Pegasus Stables in the 19th century, The Tin Man is the biggest attraction bar none at the yard and much loved by all.
