    Race fell apart but Aerial still did it well. I don't think GQ stays.


    Oddy, you have had one winner, I might as well throw the towel in now <laugh> My first one was given a prep for its holidays in Dubai.

    Picked Dark Glacier in the next at Newcastle for the comp - bit worried about the money for South Leinster though, especially as Dan's fat northern jocks seem to have tipped it up

    Incredible Toppy <applause>

    I could moan about the penalty on mine but I don't think he would have caught the winner - hosed up

    Must admit to being quite sad seeing Ceilidh House running on the sand these days. I remember her hosing up on debut, looked really special and I backed her in both the Oaks Trial and at Epson but ultimately she is a soft ground horse. Be nice to see her get her head in front today

    Thisa Lingfield heat is very tricky. This is not adrenaline rushing to me or anything but I have taken Mantoba at 40/1 e.w. Has always shown ability, especially at 2. This is the first crack at 10f and the way he shaped last time suggested it would suit. Might be able to make the frame.

    Lumped on Big Buck's here. I think the 1/3 is far too big.

    Time for the best horse in training <ok>

    I used to find him boring 2 season ago but you just have to marvel at how he brushes rival after rival aside with contemptuous ease. Magnificant horse.
