    That Famous Name is a ****ing joke.


    How can Irish trainers allow him to keep winning Group races when he is so exposed?

    Not that Frankel needs his form franked but that must be the biggest boost to his form to date.

    Spencer and Bells horse -Hartwright was better than bare result on debut in what will be a warm maiden. Think he might win at Folkestone.

    3.15 Leicester
    Sheik the reins 8-1

    This horse has close form to a horse that won on Monday called Obliterate. This is a harder race but at 8-1 should be backed as the form is solid. A definate value bet.

    To be fair lads Famous Name can only beat what's put in front of him and 6.5 lengths is a fair old drubbing. This season's classic form not helped by Born To Sea - he was only 2L behind Camelot in the Irish Derby ffs. Very poor turnout for the money on offer though.

    Odddy it would have been 50+ lengths on good ground. Camelot didn't travel a yard. BTS is a rogue.

    I'd say Camelot was cantering until 2 out and then wandered around abit under pressure. I don't buy the ground excuse - if he's going to be a Leger horse he should have no problems with 12F on soft. Camelot probably would have won more convincingly on better ground. Mind you that was off levels, Famous Name was giving BTS 9lbs WFA today <run>

    You don't buy the ground excuse come on Odddy it was bottomless.

    Famous Name is the biggest joke in Irish racing - he should be banned he is the equivalent to them big lanky robot Klitschko brothers ruining boxing.
