Kempton this Wednesday

[Bluesky9]

I must say that were I to look at this race without bias the horse I would be very interested in is the Harry Dunlop trained D'Niro. I liked the maiden he ran in and he ran very well without ever looking as though he would win. I feel with that run under his belt he will be a cracking EW bet from a stall 1.

THE KING'S STEED for me Blue. Beckett has a fine record here with his youngsters and it showed enough on its Newmarket debut to suggest there is a race or two in him.

I just found out that the race is over the mile. A two year old with a sprinting sire, stepping out for his initial run, at that distance is amazing. It'll be most interesting. All the best.

There seem to be a few who went ok. D'Niro looks a huge chance. I thought Mamoo went ok as well. Bugger what anyone else says, I love the name Buzz Lightyere and people will remember it too.

Best of luck Stickler! Your slowly building empire of horses- might start calling you Sheik Stick Looks a picture of a horse! Am driving up north this morning for work for a couple of days otherwise I would be there- hope he he does you proud and goes to infinity and beyond! Good luck

In other ownership news I see, Stick, that your chum, Charlie Longsdon, now has Royal patronage as The Queen has sent him a 3YO filly called Sports Day – I say, what a lovely name for a filly by the way. I’m sure this arrangement was engineered by Mr Henderson, the forum’s favourite trainer, who is a close pal of both parties. I’m sure his boast of ‘I taught him all he knows’ was enough to swing it with Her Majesty. I would suggest though, old boy, that should your paths cross at Hull Farm, in the interests of national security, you refrain from patting this one on the rump.

I see its been announced that The Queen will also be sending one to Richard Hughes - should debut as a 2YO in 2016. Cor, I say cor, blimey where’s the old girl getting the money from to recruit all these ‘new’ trainers. I think we all know the answer to that one, don’t we, forumites! Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more...
