    Did they, which horse was withdrawn because of pus in a foot then? They said it wasn't a major problem but too close to the fez, was a high profile one, thought it was TN
    It was Willoughby court with an infected foot.

      • I just finished my walk around the course with Ruby.
        Reckons this is a very minor issue and he should be fine to race. A good farrier can pierce a small hole and draw out the pus and the horse would be good to go. He would be very positive of Altior running.

        Decided on Douvan as hes the only horse capable of beating Min. He couldnt see Min turning arounf the supreme form. "Douvan is Douvan" he said.

          I didn't know you had one... I could have given you loads of questions

          Cheers for that KSS! Excellent.

          I believe that to be 100% the truth.

          Douvan is just a better horse than Min.

          Must be a real slap in the face for the Min fans that have said he's better than Douvan

          A horse with an "unbeaten" season, gets bypassed for a horse off for 365 days. Actions speak louder than words!

          Then again, if Min beats Douvan fair and square aI'll just crawl under a rock.

              I know!

              Makes me wonder what else I've missed.

              That is brilliant though. Incredibly jealous.

              • My Prediction:

                Special Tiara goes off like a nutter, the other sit back 10l behind. all still going well 4 furlongs out but special is starting to come back to the field, 3 furlongs out Ruby keeps looking down & then pulls up Douvan.. 2f out Politologue gets found out to be not that good and starts dropping away, Altior & Min kicks on, 1f out Min is 2l up and starts pulling away as Altior really doesn't like the heavy his foot his a bit sore and he only beat a lot of rubbish last year and wished it was the same kind of horses this year, Rudy is sitting on the side line crying as they put the crown on MIN.

                It's my fairy tale and I'm sticking to it.. But I will find Kev's rock and ask him if I can borrow it if I am wrong
