    First Mohican in the opener, then Compton in the second. Young Willie Tristan Davies is an interesting booking.
    Can't oppose Ryan Moore in the Musidora and then a tricky sprint at 3.15 Can't decide between Maarek and Society Rock

    I have to admit i thought traffic problems would catch First Mohican out there, but he showed a good turn of foot to leave them there... Easy as in the end...<ok>

    Well done if you backed him...<cracker><applause>

    I'm pleased for those of you that stuck by FIRST MOHICAN. I was very disappointed after his last run last year, as I know how highly the yard think of him.

    Blimey,that was a popular winner on the forum...well done all who were on.

    What a thought to see him going hurdling with Alan King.

    Very sporting of the exuberant Mr Ponsonby.

    Superb start, a definite example of the group horse in a handicap.

    Thanks again Princess for ensuring we have all adopted this horse from last year, it keeps paying out.

    Not sure about the owners comments about sending him hurdling, that just sounds absurd to me.

    One up, three to go!

    Nice win by FM, but agree with jockey criticism.
