          I was at Wetherby a couple of weeks ago and prices on course there were on a par with Cheltenhma, Sandown, Ascot and other major tracks, surprised me that....

              Discussions underway for a 9 race card with the Clarence House on at Trials day. However, Gary Moore isn't happy and said he wouldnt be happy with that and probably wouldnt have a runner in it

                Would be a good prep for UDS if they do move it? ... can see him shortening for both races even if he wins at 1/2 without Ar Mad for both races at the festival... One to get on before he runs?

                              If I were you Ryan, I'd get there for when the gates open. Plenty to go and see before the racing starts.
