    Well done Oddy, that was some race on the dirt. Union Rags is a very good horse, Kentucky Derby 2012?

    Phew - 5 yards after the post Union Rags is in front <yikes>

    Brave, brave effort from the front. Union Rags threw it away wandering about in the straight

    Congrats Oddy.

    Daddy Long Legs didn't handle the dirt at all. He was climbing down the back stretch to get away from the kick back.

    Huge ask for So You Think in the Classic.

    Now for Goldi. Come on girl.

    Did your mom bath her feet in Ice Box(es), when she had a Headache. Come on tell us which 50 to 1 shot wins the Classic. ;)

    ..and don´t hide it, if she was a professional figureskater, I take Ruler on Ice as well. :emoticon-0110-tongu

    Zen, true enough, would be embarrassing to lose to a gelded Captain Rio trained by Larry Grayson <laugh>

    So You Think backed in to just shade favouritism for the Classic on Betfair. Have they not been watching the Euro challenge fall apart on the Dirt?!

    I thought he had a chance, and he definitely does if he handles the dirt, but it is a huge if, especially on the evidence so far.

    You have to give Goldikova a massive chance here - plum draw, surely Byword is not a miler, Strong Suit out in the car park. Goldikova has nothing to do with my mum but I'm going to invest some of the winnings on her <ok>

    Evening lads. Thanks for the BC link RV, top work my friend <cheers> By the way nice to see young O'Brien ride a winner, made me think of that bloke on here who blamed him for a few defeats at York, the lad didn't do much wrong tonight... :undecided: Oddy, the money went on Goldi thankfully, obviously Sarafina didn't oblige...

    Great fight on Box Nation now as well - Ricky Burns vs Katsidis <ok> both cracking fighters, Katsidis is the brother of the young Aussie jock Stathi Katsidis who sadly died in October 2010.
