I think the royal lodge is a very weak Group 2, Don't see what farhaan has achieved to be favourite. Agree DLL has improvement in him, hard to know what to make of tenth star after last race, and wrote is following the path of treasure beach last year so wouldn't discount the Galway nursery. so I'll take a chance on Rocinate at 6's, form is possibly higher than the rest, just a worry that he mightn't want it as quick the way he has been campaigned
Think lightning pearl has good chance for the reasons you outlined, I'll take a chance with hello Glory at 14/1 who didn't get the race run to suit last time, hopefully with improvement to come. Pendragon for me at 33/1 in the big one, ran a good race in it last year when up with the pace, hopefully the better ground this year will suit him better GL |

a very good write up neill....top class stuff , i wish you well with those ....did you by any chance get a chance to look at zip tops run at newmarket on thurs ..i popped into a pub in salou and low and behold they had ruk and atr on ...wife not best pleased ....
....i thought it was all at sea and never really raced properly till the last furlong ..not suited to newmarket but one to watch if sent out before the seasons end.... |
|
By:
Sorry Galway rather than Listowl nursery, good original selections there IBP
|
|
By:
No didn't and don't have the RUK unfortunately, but I'll see if I can have a look, that's a good point about Newmarket, and the dip is there as well. It's a big vast expanse as well and some horses might find it hard to concentrate there.

i backed cry fury at goodwood and was most impressed..i friend who's opinion i respect said he fancied it for the cambridge when it was a far bigger price ....i never took a price myself .....

By:
Good to hear, I wouldn't read too much into the loss last time out myself.

By:
Backed Alanza in the Sun Chariot, think she only just does enough and the step back up to 1m is a positive, Saphrese be tough to beat but Oxx doesn't overfaze his horses so she must have a chance.
In Navan just doubles Frawley @ 2/1 and Loosen My Load @ 4/5 Off out golfing, lovely day best make the most of it, gl enjoy d racing ![]() |

.......except for the sun chariot going against u ..... proven group 1 form sways me to saphrese ... good luck with the rest of them |
|
By:
In the Royal Lodge, I've a feeling Daddy Long Legs is going to..... Fair play Neill d. You got that prediction spot on.
|
|
By:
yep early days, but I'll get most of the cash back from the lucky 15 now anyway
, if it was my last tenner, I'd be with Saphresa too fwiw, but I think it's a bit of a two horse race so i'm just chancing the other. |

By:
AOB is half using races to bring them on these days, they must be doing very little at home, they really don't seem to mind getting them beaten any more. It was something I started to notice around 09' with the likes of rip Van Winkle and Mastercraftsman, but it seems to be par for the course now, really really sympathetic.

Congrats to Ger Lyons... a truly outstanding exponent of the art of training racehorses and one of the nicest people to ever walk the face of the earth to boot.
|
|
By:
Well done again neill d and big congrats to Ger Lyons. First of many group 1's no doubt!!
|
|
By:
Cheers lads, just thought he did a nice job reminding the fellows over the water wher the best horses and the most competitive racing is.
|
|
By:
No bother to Ger to fly the flag.......Neilld......well done and stay ahead.

By:
The french filly is the one to beat in the next.........I fancy her to win easy.......Johnny needs to produce his filly on the line and the french filly will be gone for all money.
|
|
By:
^^^ you're probably right I'd say,hopefully she'll get a very French
, but I think it's a match |
|
By:
french type of ride*
|
|
By:
The french filly does look the one to beat..she has her name on this, going for a hatrick. I've did herself and Together in a straight forecast. Together loves coming second!!

By:
ye called it lads, totally outclassed em, how on earth did they get her beat in the Falmouth
|
|
By:
I thought Lemaire gave her too much to do in the Falmouth.
|
|
By:
Right lads......Lets keep the roll going.
|
|
By:
He did indeed ya, jesus the mother and father of all balls ups really as I'd say you could have done anything with her today and she would have won against that lot. Timepiece is one lucky Group 1 winner. The winner would be interesting in the BC Mile imo
|
|
By:
Alanza will probably be better next year and maybe with a more even pace being an Aga horse, despite the trips she has been campaigned at this year, but no real excuse, close enough if good enough.
|
|
By:
we'll be doing well to pick the winner of the next!
I like neill d's choice Cry Fury does look if he will will improve for the extra few furlongs. Backed Sagramor at Goodwood after he won the britannia at Ascot, Nicky Mackay said his race was out the window before the off, kicking up at the stalls. I'll go for Sagramor ew. |
