    That's even worse Nass!
    I don't think Quelly is of limited ability. I think he's quite good, he just hasn't the racing brain of his predecessors and Cecil was at a time of life when he wanted the kind of man Quelly is: which I think is to Quelly's credit.

    Cheers Ron glad that someone saw it. A mere 10/1 return rightly pales into total insignificance on here compared with some of the tipsters but I'm f**king bouncing I tell you. Just from what I've heard from my yard sources Ron, they all think the world of him hence why he was smashed on both runs before today. 12f was always the plan and if anyone's in a position to know!!

    Well done GGW.

    You weren't the only one on Hillstar. I didn't go lumpy though like I think you may have.

    Layed my JUST the Judge bet off. Too testy. **** draw. No chance. I still think Big Break needs softer to be seen at her best.

    Well that win on Hillstar is going to see me have a little play here afterall. Sky Lantern has a horrible draw but she won the Guineas nicely seemingly in charge at the end and she has good form behind the best 3yo filly in Europe, Hot Snap, when the race wasn't run to suit in the Nell Gwyn. I'll play her on the nose.

    <cheers> Bob and well done to you. He was considered a Derby horse ;) . Lumpy for Ascot week perhaps but I'm small stakes all week. This week isn't my idea of a good chance to make money, so many unexposed types and trappy handicaps. My av. stake is a fraction of what I'm staking at Cheltenham

    Well done GGW. No doubt who was the best filly after that. Easy.

    Sky Lantern is some filly winning both the 1,000 Guineas and a very competitive Coronation.

    The French form is very confusing. Which filly/mare/colt/horse is the best miler in France at present?

    Well done George, hot stuff! I picked wrong one of course, although Maureen did well but 4th of 17 in a non-handicap don't pay the milkman!
