[Ron]

Wasn't sure where to put this but, having read the article I thought he deserved his own thread

"Stradivarius firmly endeared himself to racing fans by winning a record 18 Pattern races over seven seasons in training, including three consecutive Gold Cups at Royal Ascot, and so it was no great surprise to see him come first in the public vote to be inducted into the Qipco British Champions Series Hall of Fame this week."

“Everybody knew he was physically and mentally very robust, as he raced for all those years without missing an engagement, and he had that great ability to relax under pressure before producing his run"

Hmm 'mentally robust', well when I went to the National Stud at the end of June was not able to get anywhere near him as he had 'become unsettled'. He was not 'easy to see' either. Did get close up to Lord Windermere and The Tin Man so that did make up for only seeing Stradivarius in the far distance

Give him a chance for a little longer. However, on the other hand, you never know, he just might be ................oh never mind, one is not allowed to say things like that anymore.
