    Yeah will be watching I think it'll be another easy night. I'm actually more interested in seeing Shannon Briggs on the undercard, see whether his fists can match his mouth and set up a fight with Haye later in the year

    Yep but we rode our luck and got through. As Jimmy Greaves used to say "It's a funny old game" (actually with his cockney accent he used to say "it's a fanny old game" <laugh> "ho-ho you kill me Greavsie")

    Anyone know who might be showing the La Barka from Auteuil today? Can't see coverage on either RUK or ATR.

    Ron do you have a French live stream for us??

    15:55 Auteuil - Le Grand Luce e/w

    (As already mentioned above, looking for something at decent odds for my Saturday bet. Have to admit though, a real outsider against the mighty armada from Ireland and the UK? So,16/1 available in a few places at time of writing).

    Mate you know full well if he goes in today that I'm gonna tell you all he should have been kept over hurdles and would have won a Champion <laugh>

    I'm backing him and Simonsig, not hugely though because I think our jumps horses can do funny things in these French races. Must be the wine they feed them on arrival or something!

    I've backed Blue De Vega for the Derby this week at Prices around 70s on the exchanges.

    I cannot remember such an open Derby, and this horse to me looks like he wants a mile and a quarter when I watch his running style.

    I'd be hoping for a running on 3rd today and then for them to take a punt on the extra distance at Epsom. Lope De Vega is a sire I really respect and there is stamina on he dam side.
