    Just announced on Twitter that Frankie is leaving Godolphin and will ride freelance from next year. Hardly a surprise.

    May end up at Ballydoyle with Joseph starting to look like RV after a Rustler Burger Binge....doubtful he'd fancy the travelling mind you.

    Good call Bucks...haven't seen a debutant jump as fluently as that for a while,especially when the pressure was on.

    Sire De Grugy- future Gold Cup winner someone said on here not too long ago.

    Chase debut up next at Kempton.


    That Polisky could make up into a smart one if he takes well to jumping. Bit of a monkey though.

    Karamaya was pitched into Group1 Company last time out on just her second start- finishing midfield beaten 9L. I think she is massively overpriced to win this nursery off a mark of 95.

    Karamaya had absolutely no chance Toppy, worst early fav ive seen in my life, every line of form suggested she was unbelievably badly handicapped, the drift told the story. She only beat Gathering Power a nose off levels and had to give it a stone today <yikes>

    Terrible ride by Fergal Lynch on Gathering Power, 4 pounds out of the handicap, shes an absolute certainty for a handicap off 76, she might go up a pound or two for finishing 4rth but keep an eye out for her, was given no chance of winning there.

    16:55 Kempton - (Dutch) Soul Magic & Kikos

    (Trainer Mrs.Graham makes the long trip from the Borders to Kempton with Soul Magic and her charge cannot be ignored. Will also back Kikos and have a crafty R/F too. Kikos is unreliable, but one day...

    Nice EW stick, took a lot of handling from the saddle and couldn't go with the wide margin winner.

    I seriously hope nope not. That prick deserves bugger all, especially when there are much harder trying young jockeys who would do anything to be given a chance.
