    Unfortunately I will be on the Autobahn and so likely miss the Lexus Chase but my thoughts are that (1) Sizing John will take all the beating (2) Yorkhill is a shocking price at around 5/2 and (3) the way Henry de Bromhead’s runners are going it might be worth small e/w plays on his runners.

    But mostly that Yorkhill’s price absolutely horrible, minging, filthy disgusting is.

    Chello will like this one after the Martin shenanigans from the stable yesterday.

    Artful Artist. 1.50 Leopardstown.

    I would back it now at 9/1

    good luck.

    Interesting recruit for Ricci/Mullins making his hurdling debut today EPICURIS who was 5th behind Golden Horn in the derby and won a G1 himself currently 4/6 not a betting proposition for me but will be interesting to see how he gets on

    IMPORTANT INFORMATION ALERT
    Alex "The Curse" Hammond has tipped SIZING JOHN.



    She tipped Chatez yesterday, I wondered why it drifted so badly.

    Oddy, can I just say how much I respect/admire your pioneering modernist approach to grammar, in the sense of putting the verb at the end of the sentence.
    Will you this practice for 2018 adopting be ? And can the rest of us it copy ?

    Rainer you more than welcome are, copy to.

    If Alex Hammond can get Sizing John beat we should all be very, very afraid.

    Fairplay Percy! Well done.


    Think I'll have a wad on sizing John later, though as Stick said Alex Hammond backed it, is a worry!
