  1. Great ride by Laura Pearson on Sparks Fly . They made sure She didn`t get a soft lead on the front but She just sat 4th pulled the horse out and burnt them off with a telling turn of foot . Well done to all involved especially in staying loyal to the Jockey . Commiserations to all concerned with Tiffany in the German Group one , looked to have it in the bag , but the winner seemed to come from nowhere .
  2. Must agree , but my policy on Sundays is to ignore British Racing and stick to France . Always guaranteed decent racing . A good few Listed races at Saint Cloud tomorrow .
  3. Like the look of all 4 home teams in sundays premier league games . 4 trebles and acca .
  4. Permed your top 3 in the 205 and 315 with Chianti Classico and 2 others in the big race . 3 times 3 times 3 = 27 i point trebles . Took prices winning treble paid 340 points on price taken . Thanks very much , your ratings are superb .
  5. Preston , Cheltenham and Liverpool Treble . ..........Plymouth and Carlisle couldn`t beat anyone at the moment and the ref will undoubtably send off an Arsenal player for some trivial offence or other .
  6. Why dont more people send their horses to Owen Burrows ? He must have the biggest percentage of Group winners from such a small string of horses around , who has He upset to not get owners knocking His door down to put their horses in His care ?
  7. After years of low drawn horses winning at this meeting , first 3 in sprint drawn 16 , 17 and 20 . Backed 2 in the Balmoral both drawn low.......nightmare .
  8. EW Treble 120 Trawlerman 155 Kinross 435 State Actor...........all well known mud lovers . Last year the first 4 home in the Balmoral were all drawn low , so apart from State Actor , Bopedro is a possible bet as well .
  9. Me and some of the people in the betting shops see this every day and there is never an inquiry into any of it . There was one on Sunday had 3 runs and never beaten a horse .It was backed into 3-1 in its first handicap , but thankfully ran like a drain but someone somewhere thought they new something , but either way you would have the connections in for an explanation .
  10. First thoughts for the Arc this weekend . Still think Al Riffa is the one after it`s demolition job in the German Group 1 last time . Look De Vega worries me though . All it`s wins were from the rear with a telling turn of foot .The Arc trial when it was well beaten , it made the running , was never touched with the whip and faded out of contention .Looks for all the world they just treated that race as a glorified racecourse gallop , will be backing both on the day if not before .
  11. Going for Godwinson in the Cambridgeshire loves the soft and well drawn . The one i can`t have at any price is Roi De France , watched the Yarmouth race a couple of times and at no point did it look like it would win . In the perfect position all race and when the gap came didn`t quicken , in fact others in the race were finishing better . Think it`s just the Gosden factor making it so short . (Prepares to be shot down in flames as it bolts in ) !
  12. So nothing in the Arc trials today to put me off my long time fancy for the race in Al Riffa . It blitzed the field on its first try at 12f in Germany , in a race that has produced Arc winners in the past .
  13. Fully agree . He has so many horses going for the same prizes and you can tell by the Jockey bookings He has no idea which horse is the best , but huge congratulations to Sean Levey on his first classic , much deserved .Also brilliant ride from Tom Marquand on Economics on Saturday , kept August Rodin hemmed in and didn`t let any of the O`Brien horses get first run as all the other jockeys seem to do .
  14. Been watching all the replays of the previous outings of the St Leger field and You Got To Me appeals at the prices . All it`s best work at 12f comes in the last furlong , it runs more like a stayer than a horse with a turn of foot , looked an EW steal , but now we are down to the dreaded 7 runners , will still have a bit on at the 6-1 available .
  15. Just a thought on this weekends racing . Back in March on the first Saturday of the flat season Montaasib won the listed sprint and Charyn won the listed mile . Races usually that go to horses who their trainers know can`t quite hack it at group level . Now 5 and a bit months later they are both Group 1 winners . In all my years of watching racing i have never known the like !
