    From racingpost.com live news feed:

    Normandy Barriere is trained by Nigel Tinkler in our first. He said: "He'll come on for the run but is in good form although I'm a bit concerned about the dip."

    Indeed ...

    Fabre sends over the tastey sounding Pamlemousese in 3.35 at 7/2. Fabre loves to plunder Nmt and a she was a smart winner recently at Chantilly so id expect a decent run here.

    Most commonly used quote at newmarket... will come on for the run... why bother saying that? Its basically a ready made excuse for when they flop.

    It's to keep owners happy with a shocking run isn't it?

    I remember a few years ago backing an AOB hotpot in the 2000 GNS and, after the horse trailed in fifth, he came out with "We think he'll come on for the run". FFS man it's a classic, get him fit and ready to run in it <doh>

    End of rant. Sorry.

    Say what you want about the ITV team but Hoiles has an eye for a horse. He may not be the greatest commentator but his comments on how a horse looks are worth listening to.

    Good to see the Craven meeting back on the box

    Roly Poly ran no sort of race. A flame was extinguished. In fact last year's 2yo form got a battering there.
