    What did he say or do you have a link to a video of it?

    She was very good on debut that is for sure, needs to back it up.

    Does explain the money for Ylang Ylang for sure.

      I see he has form lined with Sierra Leone who's fav for the derby, right favourite?

      Tarifa seems fancied also.

          Tarifa is a weird one I think as I can see Intricate reversing that form if they ride her differently was just given too much to do.

          If i understand you right youre talking about Track Phantom being the right favourite, he has the beating of everything in the field on known form, just hope that he's able to bowl along in front on his own as he's been able to do both times he beat Nash who was quite highly rated after a romp home in his maiden

            Yeah I was talking about Track Phantom you put up for the Louisiana Derby having form behind Sierra Leone who's the favourite for the Kentucky Derby.

            • Just noticed Nysos will be out of training for a month due to a small injury and likely missing the SA derby so we'll probably be seeing Muth Vs Maymun in that and Nysos straight to the Preakness

                ​​​​​​Most be looking for a less exposed type but I quite like Johan to run well at 20s.

                Won the race two years ago, off a 4lb lower mark. And won a 70k handicap at Goodwood last season off a 3lb lower mark. Both first time out for the season. His record after breaks of 50 days or more is actually 11581, so it's the time to catch him. And top RPR was (that Goodwood win) on soft ground, so no major concerns there.

                The negatives are obviously he's pretty exposed and on a career high mark. But Migration won last year off 107 and aged 7, so it's not unachievable, but I do hope he runs again to keep Johan off top weight. The majority of recent winners were rated 100+ and carried 9st or more to be honest, so it's not one to usually focus too far down the page anyway.

                He won't have loads in hand like but should run well. No idea if they're planning to run but they should be

                      Liberty Island's last run was 4 lengths behind the freak that is Equinox. I'd say Auguste being 2nd fav is fair.

                        Got one I like the look of, decent price, but waiting for decs tomorrow to get stuck in, then shall post it up.

                        • I like Greatgadian for the Lincoln 40-1ew, hopefully declared tomorrow and gets a better draw than last year, as on very soft ground it looked like a central high draw was best and also some cover would have helped. He's 8lb lower than when 6th last year where I think the draw didn't help.

                          He's a very consistent performer and has been running recently on the all weather, his mark is a lot lower then last year after his summer exploits on better ground, but it was heavy last year and will not be far off this Saturday. Should at least be soft.

                          Probably vulnerable to something more lightly raced and fresh, but should run his race. Given luck with the draw and how they position the field on the day he really ought to be a lot shorter price vs his chances.

                          edit - not declared NRNB

                          • Usually need a high draw in the Lincoln when the ground is heavy/very soft

                            So il be concentrating on those drawn 10 or higher

                              His dam and damsire both won group 1s at 3 so that offers hope

                              But it's always a risk with these rapid precocious 2yos (see noble style, little big bear and sakheer last year) that they just dont progress

                              So to me his price is a little short

                              • Have to say the lack of markets for royal ascot is very dissapointed again

                                Was the same last year

                                Before that we'd have the Queen Anne, Prince of Wales, king stand, diamond jubilee all up by now

                                They seen to like pricing up the commonwealth cup and gold cup then nothing else

                                I remember investing some Cheltenham winnings a few years back on to palace pier for the queen anne at 5s or 6s
