    Agreed Real, and sorry I didn't mean so much the mark I meant the weight, Tropics always seems to run his best races when racing between 9-0 and 9-2, 2/2 over C&D at Newmarket when carrying 9-2 or less, and last 5-6 wins have all been at that weight too . 2nd 2nd 5th in the 3 when carrying more over C&D.

    Getting a bit old now and always going to end up likely finding 1 or 2 too good but defo think he's got one more big race in him still to come, hopefully tomorrow at some juicy odds

    Agreed, Do think Daban could make a mockery of this though, singles and reverse forecast for me

    Good recall Swanny !! Galaxy really was a top tipster on this site and is much missed - let's hope he's alive and kicking whenever he is - top man

    Really like SHEIKHZAYEDROAD today fellas. The only one of the main protagonists that doesn't have question marks regarding his stamina. On his best form he would win this, we just haven't seen his best form recently which is a concern. At the prices I am happy to have a bet!

    I've seen a few comments in the racing media suggesting Lady Aurelia would prefer firmer going ......... have they all forgotten it was soft when she blasted to Queen Mary success? I'm sure she will be fine.

    1.55 York LANDSMAN 14/1 each-way
    They've been fiddling this horse for it's last few runs. If the handbrakes off today you'll see a big improvement. I've chanced him as an each way punt.
