    Jamie has become Frank Spencer again it seems. He gave that horse an awful lot of ground to make up for no reason at all in my opinion, he was not struggling to keep up.

    Khubala runs now at Newbury, a good price at 12-1 and solid each way chance

    Spencer gave that horse too much to do but the winner had a bit more anyway perhaps?

    Jamie 'Spensive - I hate it when the don't use the horse to it's best.

    I have avoided Hayley Turner since last year, but have to give her mount Hallelujah an ew squeak at 16-1

    Nice shout Wooly. That was the other horse that caught my eye in the field but this on James Fanshawe's site about her put me right off.

    Hillstar is all the rage in the 3-15 but I'm siding with Tarikhi at 7-1 and hoping he is fit enough. Cumani's charge is interesting although little market support probably means it's a fact finding mission for the ex Italian horse.

    Kitten on the Run is being targeted for the Melbourne Cup. Whether he's good enough we'll know more today. I have backed Hillstar though, who the yard still think could be a Group horse.

    Tarikhi still holds a Derby entry.

    I'd rather be fired from a cannon, than have to ride that around Tattenham Corner! Have they done any training of him at all? Looked a complete novice.

    Pocket talk of course :D

    Fair play to Dundonnell I'll hold my hands up there he ground it out. Hopefully this means the trainer is in good form :D
