Ended up with a lot of favourites at the BC myself!

Golden Pal Flightline
Nest
Nations Pride
Love Reigns
Annopolis

Top four all favourites. Annopolis the only one at a reasonable price now. Keen to take on the UK horses at the top of the market in the mile this year.

Agreed, I like Ivar for it at quite a big price. He seems to love keeneland and was very unlucky in his last run and just came a bit too late
 
I really like modern games for the mile

He's thrived the two times he's run in North America and will have been trained with this race in mind all year

He absolutely battered ivar at woodbine

If getting a clear run I think he will be incredibly hard to bear in what looks a weak enough race

Ivar is a Keeneland specialist, so i'd discard that run for him

Yes , I watched the Coral preview show last night . - In The Know . -had Mark Johnston - i.t.v. .racecaller.
Rachel Candelora - racing t.v. ?? and simon Claire from Coral.
I'd say overall , they were against a fair few of the british runners ., but not all of them.
Also mentioned some big priced horses. ... c z rocket - 6-30 sat., hurricane j- 9-00.fri ?.
and one of them said Cyberknife to win 5-10 sat and next years Classic. ??.
Best of Luck anyway and enjoy. !.
 
I was wary when WW said when they held love reigns up she seemed to do better last time out but these American sprinters just ping the gates so quick, from that draw can’t understand holding her back.

Never in the race after that.

Yeah, I knew it was over after the first furlong
 
Not going very well for my bets so far !!. :disgust:. It can only get Better. !!:cheerful:.

They went an absolutely suicidal gallop, she simply couldn't keep up

Meanwhile buick was dead last on a 6f horse and took advantage of the pace collapse

Anything ridden handy had zero chance they went so fast unfortunately

The form of that race can be put in the bin as far as I'm concerned

they covered the first 2f in something ludicrous like 21.5 seconds which says it all
 
Tonight's effort is . Echo Zulu ............ 3-50.- 2nd.
.............................. Cyberknife ........... 5-10.- 2nd.
.............................. Kimari .................. 6-30.- u/p.
.............................. Malathatt ............. 7-55.- 1st :triumphant:.
.................................................. ............................ plus Golden Pal - 4-29.and Life is good - 9-40. continued from last nights muti .
Best of Luck ....:smile-new:.

Some good wins for Appleby and O'Brien yesterday. Surprisingly dominant.

Shocker from Love Reigns.

Might stick with the home stuff and Art Power today. :glee:
 
Few cans of Budvar purchased for later

My arse will be positioned firmly on the sofa from now until 9:50

Hopefully celebrating some winners not drowning my sorrows
 
Some E/W long shots for today.

Hector Berrios has two rides today. If his horses are on song, he might just be able to finish with a strong late charge and grab a place.

Super Ocho R7

Blue Stripe R9

Also in the Distaff I've done a Curlin combination tricast Clairiere, Malathaat and Nest

Chain Of Love R3

Campanelle R4

Flotus R4

Moira R6

Good luck Fat Jockeys :tan:

Yeah

Serious bad luck for those of us who were on golden pal and art power

The first beer has been opened ahead of schedule

Currently crafting a shrine to charlie Appleby hoping he can get me a winner with modern games or nations pride

In buick and Appleby we trust

Aye, the brutal side of the flat game. Nothing worse than not getting any sort of run for your money.

Just playing an Annopolis and Nations Pride double now! I'm done :beguiled:​​​​​​
 
Plenty of people talking up Life is Good later so chancing Law professor at a big price here
