    I'm a big fan of Ferdoos - if you consider the race at Haydock was her seasonal debut and just her 4th career start I think there could be much more to come. Not sure why she hasn't been out again before now but I think she will take all the beating today <ok>

    the possible long lay off, and the fact vita nova's saddled slipped that day and TPQ struggled to stay on board her in that

    just possibles though, goodluck with whatever your on!

    no bets for me smokin beau, i just think gertrude bell is a massive price considering. I remember the saddle slip for vita nova and i do think she would have won but it would have been by much - the prices dont reflect that in my opinion.

    I've changed my mind in the next at Cheltenham - was going to go for the Nicholls horse but these Irish horses are doing so well and Plan A has been in cracking form, and is being back - so my plan B is Plan A

    Hardy yep, best watched at the moment. Most of these races will be pipe-openers.

    Another Irish winner - shame I picked the wrong on <doh>

    Not backing Frankel at those odds so will have a little e/w dabble on Dubawi Gold

    think excelebration will give frankel something to think about even if i do hope frankel puts up another stunning performance.

    Dont forget Frankel put up unargueably his worse perfomance in the St James Palace at ascot, maybe he'll remember that run with a bit of trepedation

    Yeah Excelebration seems a bet to nothing at an each way price. At the risk of raising a laugh, Dick Turpin to run well.
