Nelson beat something by 3 lengths, Saxton Warrior beat the same thing by 3 lengths, Roaring Lion beat Nelson by a neck.

All bullshit anyway, wonder if my dream will come true ( Roaring Lion winning ), Atzeni will make it 5 in a row, O'Brien will beat the record (Think his best is Seahenge still), or Bolger will ruin the party for all. Interesting race

Also i'm a big big big fan of this new non runner penalty system, good to not see so many on a saturday, gets ****ing tiresome doing horses that then become non runners on the day, or countless times 16 runners then there's a non runner to make it not 1,2,3,4 swear bookies pay them. A lot better regulated now, some are genuine i know, but trainers seriously take the piss sometimes

Not betting, but really do think the Japanese-bred Saxon Warrior has an obviously excellent favourite's chance in the Racing Post Trophy Stakes (3:25 Doncaster). His Papa, Deep Impact, was a fine racehorse, and is now proving to be an outstanding sire.

Cheltenham 3.10pm Double Ws 6/1 each way

Lovely.....the jumps season is starting proper today for me.. As Wooly highlighted the selection looked very classy at the festival last season and i see likely improvement with a second season over fences. Previous run should put him right for this. Ground will suit..
 
What a fantastic race that was at Cheltenham - an aggressive front runner, bounding over his fences in front of the packed enclosures and I found myself saying "**** off Le Prezien" as it would have been so unfair if Foxtail Hill had been beaten. Lovely ride by STD.

This is what we have been missing - brilliant, exhilarating stuff <cheers>

That was shocking...almost too bad to be true...perhaps they want to keep the horses mark down for the festival. Strange!!
 
Didn't back it but thank fek he's now got that record. Maybe they will stop banging on about it now

Great achievement of course, but it hardly matches up to discovering penicillin or inventing the potato!
 
Bravo Aidan, a tremendous achievement. Saxon Warrior gave a really gutsy performance over a distance that is patently his minimum one, surely? <applause>

Looks a very good renewal of the Racing Post. Verbal Dexterity is tempting at the prices with G1 form in the book but it would be a slightly disappointing result in terms of next years Derby if he won and you have to worry about him missing the Dewhurst, think he handled the ground better than most in the National stakes as well. The Pentagon is a nice horse but the form doesnt look up to this now and apparently he had a slight setback, he probably wants firm ground and hes went a big walk in the market since the betting opened. Roaring Lion has done nothing wrong in 3 runs, he has a US pedigree though and hes not going to win the Derby, he just scraped home in the Royal Lodge from Nelson who would be here if that form was good enough, expect him to run a big race without being good enough to win. Loxley and Gabr are both maiden winners with potential but have a mountain to climb and if there is one lurking at a price I think it will be Chilean. His form doesnt look good enough but I was impressed by the way he won at Haydock and that little prick Atzeni has some record in this race, can see him riding this one very quiet and picking up some of the pieces late on. Saxon Warrior looks a class above I think and a serious Derby horse, easy maiden win from an unpromising position first time out and then showed the type of gears in the Beresford that I dont think anything else in this race has displayed, take the 6/4 and the 10/1 for the Derby.

1. Saxon Warrior
2. Roaring Lion
3. Chilean

Backed Staxton a few times this season and he looks to have a decent chance again in the first at 6/1.

One my uncle is involved in is running in race 5 at Santa Anita, Irish Freedom. 24 people are flying over from the east coast to Santa Anita despite another horse in the syndicate running in a more valuable race elsewhere so I think they are expecting to be getting their pictures taken after the race.
