    I am Glad it's on the Polytrack. The straight course at Lingfield is a Joke. So Horses drawn low in that Chartwell race would have had no chance. The 'Golden Highway' just spoils the racing

    Sparky I was talking more about the fact that the characteristics of the turf course at Lingfield are about as close as you can get to Epsom - left handed, downhill turn into the finishing straight. Gives connections a good chance to gauge whether the horse may handle Epsom.

    Nothing more cringeworthy than hearing forty year old jockeys referring to trainers as "Mr" this and that...

    Nice call too by Simon Holt with Red Merlin. Not only is he a damn good commentator, he's no mean journalist/tipster either! <ok>
