Second, fourth and fifth. They all certainly did outrun their odds. A good watch. I did think for a furlong that maybe Flight had it but the winner was really good.

That was my first thought but on seeing the replay he was level with Shadow Of Light for most of the race and appeared to make his move at the same time. I need to see the race again but I do get the impression Gosden is quietly fizzing.

Tomorrow, 1000G, three outsiders for the sake of an interest since I can't really see past the top two: Flight 33/1 Elwateen 33/1 Chantilly Lace 25/1 Flight is presumably thought better than Simmering (OR 109) based on jockey bookings. Beckett (Chantilly Lace) doesn’t run no-hopers at this...

Indeed, and if it keeps you sane and happy it's working!

Does that mean, Ian, that you don't watch any sport or any other form of entertainment unless you've had a bet on it?

That sounds a bit like turning on the TV for the cup final hoping it's a crap game. I recall losing money in the Celtic-Aberdeen game back in October but it's still the most pulsating match I watched all season. So I'm hoping it turns out to be a brilliant race whether I win or not. I just love...
