It was brilliant to see Rewilding turn SYT over today, mainly because I had a few quid ew on Rewilding, but also for the way O'Brien uses his pacemakers. He's wasting a good horse in Jan Vermeer, once a derby favourite, and very good horse yet O'Brien's decided to use him as a pacemaker. Sooner he loses his obsession with the pacemaker the better.
Why the fook would you send a horse to race in a G1 contest when it isn't 100%, that shows a massive error and also a massive disrespect to the rest of the field so get the fook in Frankie!!

Seconded.
Was tempted to play Cape Dollar in the last on the reasoning that Stoute has very fun runners, and when he sends them they normally do well like mentioned a few time son this thread. Decided against it so no doubt it's going to hack up now.

Hopefully.
I've had a good day regardless, two winners and a second. Got two in the last, Dollar being one of them, so hopefully it'll go in.

Went up to Ascot yesterday - great day, though rather spoilt by no winners
A few observations - Peslier put up 2lbs over on Goldikova, and got beat a short-looking length. The accepted weight to distance equivalent for a mile race is 2lbs = 1 length... Having said that, Canford Cliffs was impressive, and I'd take it to beat Frankel should they both line up in the Sussex.
As for today, Dettori gets a nine day ban for thrashing the living poop out of Rewilding in winning by a neck. Not sure that this makes the result acceptable, myself.

Was looking for abit of value in the race with Shumoos being a short but worthy fav I think I have found it in the Hannon runner, she's won two races already before her second birthday, last seen winning at odds of 1/4 as expected she won on the bit bar a slight nudge, the horse she beat that day was Dijarvo who has since won a Listed race over in France, she would need to improve again but see why she couldn't place or chase home the fav here.
Short head the other way and it would of been spot on
Rain continues to come down and the forecast for the next 2 days is not too good. Only remaining part of a pisspoor patent is Holberg @ 10s, though the ground looks to be going against him and in favour of my saver Manighar @14s. Fallon seemed quite confident about him earlier.
Nothing else of interest atm for the rest of the meeting, though if the ground is genuinely soft come saturday, then Cavalryman becomes interesting for the Hardwicke.
