Ron - I tend to avoid going back to Lambourn on the Open Days as it is so crowded. But they are great for the village - it's just a shame that as...
Oh dear. So I'm a curmudgeonly anti-Irish doom- merchant! On each of those: Curmudgeon - GUILTY! (just ask my wife, friends and work...
I was born in Lambourn, lindentree, and lived there until I went to London to make my fortune (not!). Family are still there so I go back quite a...
You're too clever for me Ron - but believe me that's no compliment.
I broadly agree with you dancingbrave - it really depends what you mean by superstar. First and foremost it was a great race today between two...
Agree with you on Await the Dawn, famous, and it would be a great shame if his campaign is compromised by stud considerations. Many horses are...
Some great talking points today. What more did Highland Castle have to do to get disqualified? I know you more or less have to put a tomohawk in...
I'm also a big fan of Grand Crus, Shergar. He is a very fluent hurdler - that is one of his great strengths. He jumped the brush hurdles well at...
2.00 San - Pastoral Player - £50 win 2.35 San - Toolain - £25 ew

I was actually very impressed with Goldikova at Royal Ascot. Canford Cliffs is a great horse imo and she stuck it out really well. So I would...
Very impressed with Rutherford's acrobatics at Perth. Pleased to see he was OK.
Love the Singapore story Filon D'or. Kind of backs up and scuppers my maxim at the same time! I just became frustrated at the number of times I...
Thanks for that beef. I see AOB filled the five places between 8th and 12th. Not quite Dickenson's Famous Five but still a good effort!
I won't dispute any of that Ron, especially the point on welfare. If a horse is so unsuited to the going it should not be running and I often...
Of course it is not Irish-bashing famous! It's just AOB-bashing.
Good point famous. It's good to be proved right and I don't really blame you for milking it.
