    Have you ever seen riders as limited as he and his retired brother?

    It suddenly dawned on me that Supreme Arkle might have crept in as Boris Fenster? He spoke a few words of Deutsch, I believe, and Herr Fenster would probably appeal to him? Thought once SA had sneaked in as Shergar, but KS told us once he had around ten cats and a dog; SA never admitted to that...............Hmmmm.
    Anyway, friendly

    Just had word from one of my Darley pals that PROOFREADER is expected to go well tonight in the 8.40 at Newmarket. Currently 16s with William Hill, but in to 9s with others.

    Huge moment for Maarek now in terms of the draw tomorrow. C'mon the lower numbers! I highlighted Global Village last night at 12s but didn't have a bet and he's a stupid price at 5s and he is also highly drawn. Two against the field are Atlantic Sport 25/1 & Thunderball 33/1

    Jamesie is one I retain faith in and I think he will handle the ground and relish the trip. Desperately unlucky not to have won the last twice.

    Global Village might win but you'd surely need your head examining to be backing him at 4/1 in a 30 runner Royal Ascot handicap . . . ?!

    Atlantic Sport 3rd.

    1st home was low numbers side. 2nd, 3rd and 4th were stand side and 5th was far side. Doesn't seem a huge disparity for the draw. Good news!

    You think that racing stands side helped or hindered him? Very unlucky not to win alright!
