With Skybet going 5 places in the next at Donny I'll have a go with ADMIRALTY ARCH although I do fancy Spiritual Lady but she is too short.
 
Can we have it separated out?

Ron and I took an active decision to limit the number of "off topic" threads (as this is a horse racing board) and a number of these were rationalised into the "discuss anything except ....................." thread. As the shares / stock market thread was only sporadically used we decided merge it. Because the search function is still broken, finding threads which have not been posted on for some time is very onerous, hence the desire to bundle as many off-topic threads under the "discuss anything except" thread, which has regular contributions and is always near the top of the thread list.

Ok thanks
 
Not sure where they dumped it Morky to be honest. I had some news to share recently but could not find it.
That's a shame as you have given good info in the past and I would still like to hear from you. Perhaps I could get my email address to you via some method?

Hello, all. Fair card ‘oooooooooooooooop’ at Doncaster and I would expect old boy Sir Michael to do rather, and I do mean rather, well this afternoon with ABINGDON (3.05) and POET’S WORD (4.10).

Both appear highly progressive individuals and after 2 Listed successes I take the former to step up to Group 2 level with aplomb here. Abingdon did it really well at York, last time, and today’s step up in distance should bring about even more improvement. She looks a really classy filly to my eye. The latter also did it very well, on his previous racecourse appearance, this time at ‘Glorious’ Gooders. He has been raised 10 lbs for that win but the form looks very, very solid as the easily brushed aside 3rd and 4th have won since. Appears somewhat similar to the barn’s Stargazer in that he could in time progress to Group heats. Although, I say although, let’s hope Poet’s Word has more luck in running than that one did at the weekend.

Good luck all.

Stoutey still not the force of old Barney?

He needs a flag bearer.

Give him the right ammo and the old boy still knows how to fire it. Boom boom and all that.

Yep, he could do with a flag bearer. Earlier in the term it was hoped that Exosphere could be such an animal but I see he’s just been sold out of the barn to race in Australia.

Could his next such horse be one that is currently unraced. The Frankel filly MORI. Out of Midday the whisper is that she’s polling a lot of attention.
