    Unoriginal but I think it could be another good day for the record trainer from Clonsutton..... Also think PN will have his first winner today so it's a L15 on

    Back In Focus
    Pont Alexandre
    Unioniste
    Abbey Lane

    Be lucky....

    Got to feel for Nina there... and those with Rival Dest on their side...

    Back In Focus was always going to win once Tofino started treading water... Good start to the day with the racing though... I LOVE IT... WE ALL LOVE IT...!!!!

    Unlucky Dex, almost landed one at a nice price. We should have been on the forecast, those 2 did seem a long way clear in hindsight.

    Hopefully the money now comes for Boston Bob and there'll be a price on Unioniste.

    Nice winner George...<ok>

    Had Tofino backed e/w with PP at 9's and also did him straight with Corals at 8/1 for the refunded £10 bet...good offer that.

    Mick Fitzgerald thinks Rivage may have won...not for me but great to see him get back up..would have been placed at best.

    Where on earth did Back In Focus sprout wings from to win the opener! Thought the mistake he made three out was going to cost him the race. Rival D'Estruval might've won if he didn't fall two out.

    Lots of punters must have Back In Focus in multiple bets with Hurricane Fly, Quevega and Sprinter Sacre.
