    Bill stated that it wasn't fancied though, apparently it had only been at the yard for a few days. The one that ran in the maiden for the yard is one that I think will go forward and win a modest maiden/seller in the next few weeks, was green as grass that day and jock struggled to get it to go down to the start, it was clueless apparently.

    How interesting would it be to spend a day at the sales with Bill Turner finding out what he looks for in a yearling that will make it into an early type.

    I liked the juvenile that was runner up in the seller NASS. Looked a sure fire future winner.

    I don't think it was much of a race, but it should be able to pick up a race.

    RV, is it as good as the AOB thing tonight?

    <laugh> Nass - why do people think O'Briens will win first time out <whistle> do the mocking at the end of the season yeah - do you remember Peeping Fawn ?.

    This French horse is serious - seen it on RUK the other day great big horse went from winning a maiden to winning a Group 3 with ease against a couple of decent rivals (runner up beaten 3 lengths won a Grp1 next time out). He will win the English 2000 guineas

    Has AP picked his Irish National mount yet? Your Alfie Sherrin would be interesting.

    Looking at the Aintree entries GWANAKO would surely be interesting if taking his place in the Foxhunters

    My early shout for the 1000 Guineas is PREFERENTIAL by the way. I have picked the winner in the past you know despite it not being a bumper ;-)

    Not sure Stick. He will probs be on the wrong one anyways <ok> Good old Gwanako I love him. Is Chapo not running ?.

    MON PARRAIN and ZARKANDAR looks the best two at Aintree imo

    Mon Parrain? Again?

    Chapo was said to be missing Aintree when they spoke of him at Cheltenham on the loud speaker, he was unsaddled straight after the race and overheated.

    BTW whilst talking about "Up" what was the lad doing on her? Strange ride in a small field race.

    As for the Guineas, it all depends on the ground!

    Nass <cheers>

    That Mon Parrain is a horse out of the top drawer 100% confident about that. He should get home this time at Aintree. Not sure what Nicholls is playing at running him over 3m+ <doh>. Showed enough last time out to suggest he will win at Aintree if they give him a patient ride.

    Young Jospeh hasn't had the best of weeks. He should have won on SNA and was poor again tonight.

    Thats a nice slip to be sat on fella. Best of luck.

    Start studying that Kempton juvenile NASS, I may be going so I could need a winner or two ;-)

    Mon Parrain reminds me of our favourite Nicholls horse of last season, looks great but finds zilch

    I am away for the weekend, so it will be a limited preview, suffice to say, most of those will probably go to Musselburgh for the turf maiden instead <laugh>

    Mon Parrain is a serious bridle dog who should have a wealth warning tattooed on his rump!

    Stick I hope she has trained on <ok>

    Nass which horse is that then ? I disagree about Mon Parrain defs can excuse his run last time out he had no chance of staying that distance.
