    I was just thinking Gordon Elliot could go through the card at Down Royal but he hasn't got one in the 80-102 handicap hurdle - probably hasn't got one in the yard rated low enough for the race <laugh>

    Interesting that Paddy Power have Mogul 5/1 for next year's Derby but they go 3/1 for the Futurity at Newcastle this evening. Surely if you think the horse a champ in the making the 3/1 right here and now is more appealing than waiting until next June for only 2 points bigger?

    All the money is for runaway winner last time out Kinross but although he could be anything he seems skinny at 11/8 up in class on a surface he has not raced on before. Mogul didn't look that special last time but he should appreciate a test of stamina and considering he was 1/2 for this race when it was due to be run at Doncaster, 3/1 looks big by comparison, even with the exciting Kinross now in the mix. Kinross was 6/1 when betting first opened on this race, so anyone taking that will be on good terms with themselves now.

    I'll stick a fiver on Mogul at 3/1 for something to watch this evening.

    Easy for Coeur Sublime - we could be looking at a very strong crop of juveniles from last season coming into open company this season. Plenty to look forward to <ok>

    Sam Spinner wins again, shows how much of an engine he has as his jumping isn't great. Today he was jumping right, and once more, I will be looking to take him on again next time out.

    Nicely done by Sam Spinner but might be happier going right-handed next time? Maybe the Kauto Star Novices Chase on Boxing Day?

    Nordano was very impressive at Chepstow under a brilliant Bryony ride. Hopefully a repeat performance here.

    Good to see Tom George having a good couple of days - could be a yard to follow this winter after a pretty miserable 2018-2019 season.

    They always manage it - 5 minutes between the off at Newmarket and Down Royal and Newmarket now 3 minutes over. At least Down Royal are holding.

    Breeders Cup DAY 1 tonight

    8.12 Kimari - 2nd at Royal Ascot, 2 wins since, great chance
    8.52 Arizona - Royal Ascot winner - defeated only by the great Pinatubo in the Dewhurst
    10.12 Daahyeh - has done very little wrong, still maybe underrated.
