    I think they may take that Horse out in the morning, I cannot see it being allowed to run over a mile on proper soft going.

    Best of luck if it does run however.

    Cloudscape back in a handicap at Newmarket, he ran too bad to be true last time and this looks a gilt edged opportunity to get back on track.

    Can't believe no one has mentioned yet but today is the day we see the most expensive horse of 2012 Hydrogen eagerly making his first racecourse appearance costing a massive 250,000 2 years ago. He is currently 66/1 for the derby but doubt he will make it there I have had a small I mean very small e/w on him for it incase he cruises up today but he is currently friendless at the moment and is drifting out in the betting currently 4/1. Let's hope he lives up to the hype. No bet for me in this race but will be eagerly watching it at 3.05 today

    Bought by David Redvers for 2.5 million guineas (£2.625m) at Tattersalls 2012, Hydrogen is by Galileo out of a mare by Arc winner Saumarez. he missed two débuts last year, one due to a leg injury and another due to a dirty scope. Believed to be a well above average 12f type. He is up against Wonderstruck, a Sea The Stars filly out of mare by the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner Alysheba. That looks a tough one but if he wins impressively, in a fastish time, who knows; his Derby price would tumble that's for sure. If he doesn't win then I can't see him even running in the Derby.

    Saab Almanal wasn't disgraced in the Dante. I think he'll appreciate the step up in trip with a few extra runs under his belt I think he'll see off the two.

    Ron, WONDERSTRUCK is out of Bordighera, making her a half-sister to GRANDERA and GEORGE WASHINGTON. It would be interesting to see if she shares their quirky temperament as well as ability.

    Hydrogen might be one for the Leger if anything, starting out at 1m4 a week before the Derby you would think either he has had problems or he has not shown the speed of a Derby horse.

    They will be doing well to make him an attractive enough stallion to get their 2.5m back I think.

    Interesting to see what he does with all the talk about him for so long.

    He ran a nice enough race Ron, you would be happy if you hadnt paid 2.5m for him! Spencer hardly touched him and he should leave that behind next time. Odds on he will probably turn out like most of the good lookers who break sales records and not live up to it on the track but we will learn more next time.

    As a three-parts brother to a Derby winner Hydrogen will almost be guaranteed a place at stud somewhere in the world, even if he fails to win - colts with far lesser pedigrees have gone to stud. He did suffer a few setbacks at 2, a tendon injury I believe followed by a dirty scope.

    Ron, some trainers are happy to chuck their nice fillies in against the colts at maiden level as they'll get the weight allowance.
