    I would have thought a slow pace would've suited F&G. He's the one with top middle distance form and speed to match. He did seem to quicken the straight, but couldn't sustain it. Perhaps he just didn't fancy it in the rain.

    Forgot myself, great ride by Frankie, really thought the second had him. ROTO, early pace slow and yours just did not settle?
    RV, never had a bet either thank goodness, would not have got the winner, for sure.
    Anyone know what happened to Bridgefield yesterday? Think something was badly wrong with him, hope he is OK....................

    I was at Sandown that day - he won 4 races all through going to the other side of the track. You would have thought the other jockeys would have cottoned on really <doh>

    I wouldn't be surprised if Frankie gets a holiday for his whip use on Colour Vision - I'm sure I could see a mark on his quarters.

    I see Adam Kirby has been referred for his whip use too, up to 60 days if found guilty.

    Suzi Perry - the woman who told everyone that Yeats won 3 Gold Cups yesterday <doh> Mind I quite like the fashion as it shows you the true extent of the mental health problems facing the UK these days.
