    Yes you stuck up for her at all times Ron.

    With the failure of Al Kazeem as a stallion will Treve's sire return to Sandringham, or was Motivator sold to the French?

    Treve should why she is a great wow and I don't think it was cause the other 19 didn't run there race its because she was that good

    Very well done Ron. You stuck to the filly through thick and thin. When we started to doubt her form this time in, you saw the reality we all missed. <ok>

    Yes, well done Ron. I might have backed her myself*, but she was racecard no.8 in a French race, and I've got a huit-allergy.

    *NB this is a wicked and barefaced lie. I never considered backing her - I was with Ectot, whose jockey seemed unaware that there was a race going on which might require his attention.

    Well, Rainer, your allergy is obviously caused by something you ate (God! <doh>). I would normally recommend glutenfreies Brot, but I would not wish this on my worst enemy; it is ghastly stuff!
