so the winner of the Dante is not even entered in the Derby it makes the Epsom Derby Trial look pretty strong though. Cracksman to start favourite despite not running today ?
Look at the results last few days, been saying it for ages, York is a lottery track, used to be the best track in Europe and a guaranteed cert meeting, now its a mug benefit.
16:55 Salisbury - Intimately (Needs to recapture some of last season's form. 7f distance probably just right for him).
Ill be amazed if Churchill turns up, 1.01 St James Palace imo. I agree about the winner running at Chester, Mirage Dancer looks a class above.
They might fire him in because this isn't great but most likely avoid it. Cliffs of moher ahead of him for me. Halfcooked I thought. Not much between them though.
Spare a thought for young apprentice jockey Rossa Ryan today at Salisbury. In Division 1 of the apprentice handicap (16:55) he was beaten a short-head on Danecase, and in Division 2 (17:25) again nailed, this time by just a head on Lucky Louie. That's tough.
Put forward for a nominee to be one of the modern 7 wonders of the world Edward. A beautiful spot, what more do ya want ??? Say it in an Irish accent 100 times and you will come around
