    Fair play to connections, they are right in that good older mares tend to get even better with age.

    Yep, Sheikh Joaan Al Thani deserves full credit for this. A great sporting decision.

    His priority would appear to be prestige and historic success, rather than the breeding sheds. Good on him.

    Pleased to see the statement qualified by "but only on suitable ground." In that case I would not put it past her to make history.

    Depends if she really has health problems or not. Brilliant if she stays sound, if not, then it will look stupid.

    Good luck to them.

    Not like those fiddling Irish crooks at Coolmore - listen boys - every wonder horse they have had since Frankel kicked their a**e in all races have mysteriously been injured mmm - Canford Cliffs , Camelot , now Australia - makes me wonder if they are scared to damage the horse's stud valuation ?? Heck I know they are skint as they are down to their last few billion euros each - call me cynical !!! :)

    Everybody needs to be a layer here – Treve will not even show up, so her to win the Arc is any price you like.
