    Boris Boris has that loss made you wobble? has your confidence fallen away?

    You have forgot to add your tag...... or have they stopped calling you?

    i dont tag every post <ok> and no my confidence is sky high, it was the right lay, alot of the times Gatewood is not winning this race, was unlucky that buick was on the crest of a wave and that the best horse in the race blew it by not settling

    Thats why they call me Boris Fenster

    Gatewood. Maybe a Group horse in a handicap (Well so connections said). My brother-in-law will be happy. I gave him Gatewood and Newfangled.



    Unfortunately I also gave him Noble Mission and Elusive Kate, then replaced EK with Cardigan, who almost won the 4.25.

    Gatewood is a plodder, Group 3 at very best.

    I covered myself with gatewood at 11, I am beeling at losing the 100% lay record though, was starting to think I was invincible.

    Invincible, no. Insufferable, possibly.

    Boris, I genuinely hope you are just on the wind-up mate, because to consistently have an excuse is a ****ing dangerous thing in this sport, especially where gambling is involved. So all joking aside, I hope you stay sensible whatever you choose to say or do.

    On to the Queens Vase, I fancy PERRENIAL is a very interesting horse at the trip and on this ground. His comeback this season looked poor at first but Stipulate has since franked the form very very well. Perrenial then stepped up in trip and improved when an excellent 1 3/4 length 3rd to Michaelangelo, a horse I believe will go on to excellent things this year (St Leger hint here) and I think the slower ground will hopefully stop him being outpaced. I worry about Michael Hills in a stamina-laden race and hard finish though of course.

    What you talking about TopClass? what excuses have I made apart from that last race, everyone with eyes seen Mijhaar going down to post and then refusing to settle?
