    Universal a typical Mark Johnston horse, tough and battle hardened. As for Noble Mission <doh> He'll be called even more names now! Will never be Group 1 class!

    Aye mate - but it was ours to win and we couldn't. We'd had Craig Dawson on loan but had to send him back after the last fixture, I thought we'd miss him, and my brother who was at the match said that we did.

    I didn't take too much notice of the other results once I knew Bolton's fate - did Barnsley survive?

    Roared on Universal thinking I'd backed him and had put him in the league. I hadn't <laugh>

    Right I've been swayed by that bit of rain to lump on Dawn Approach - here's hoping I won't be cursing the failure of another champion 2YO to win the Guineas <bites nails>

    Very impressive, won going away. You'd have to think he will follow in his father's footsteps this season ......................

    Lovely win for Dawn Approach. Put the race to bed very quickly. Would love to see him go for the Epsom Derby.

    Amazing that was Jim Bolger's first winner of the 2,000 Guineas despite having trained five Dewhurst winners! Very simply, if Dawn Approach stays the Derby trip he wins!
