    No pics on ATR over the wind today! It looks an exposed area on TV also which doesn't help. I'd say it's heavy weather for the jocks and horses there today.

    Pretty certain it will be the Norfolk stakes LM. You can get 7/4 at the moment. There's a fair bit of depth to the race this year so doubt he will go off odds on but he may well be short odds against.

    Afternoon lads and lasses. I can confirm Barca and Juve will feel right at home here in Berlin tonight because it is fecking boiling hot (31°C).

    Small dabble on Flintshire to get revenge on Dolniya over the extra 2F.

    'The Derby is the People's Race?' Eh? What a load of bollocks.

    I see Gina's flogging another car competition on the Morning Line.

    Used to be Bob, many companies closing early on Derby Wednesday to allow folk to go to the races. Sponsorship, Advertising revenues and corporate greed have put paid to that years ago :(

    All this blowing of ****ing trumpets or whatever they are is nonsense and can surely only spook the horses?

    Very disappointed with Flintshire there - as expected the filly ran out of steam close home but Flintshire's bolt was shot. hmmmmmmm.

    Who backed Pethers Moon@11/1 in the Coronation Cup?!

    After Qualify being the outsider of the field winning the Oaks, wouldn't surprise me if an outsider won the Derby! But recent stats tell me it won't happen.

    Aha ................ a proper race. London Prize in the Worcester bumper. Would've been an AP McCoy steering job if he were still riding :(

    She can flog as many cars as she wants, I'll never complain. ;)

    Channel 4 just showed Slip Anchor's Derby from 30 years ago, those were the days!

    Dolniya went at a dawdle that was never going to be any good for Flintshire. That was why I left him alone today as the tourists were the only top class horses in the race. With all that money up for grabs, how come only four managed to make it to post?

    Well done to Pat Dobbs on the winner Pether’s Moon. It is not a Group 1 horse but now it is a Group 1 winner. Later in the season when the likes of Sir Michael Stoute are moaning that they cannot find a race for Telescope, somebody remind him that he could have run at Epsom.

    According to Oddschecker, you can have 7/1 King Of Rooks for the Coventry Stakes with Paddy Power or you can have 7/4 King Of Rooks for the Norfolk Stakes with Bet365, Betway, Betfair and Racebets.
