    Henderson, make of it what you will

    Like what he said about Binocular. I know a lot of people don't give him a chance but I think he'll run a really big race in the Champion Hurdle.

    Retirements and Departures 2013

    Outstanding Derby winner, won the best Irish Derby I've seen against the brilliant Suave Dancer and then put in an outstanding winning performance in the King George. There are very few 1m 4f horses that could have beaten Generous during the summer of 1991. RIP

    Victor Chandler Chase

    Well Chief winning the race when carrying top weight in 2005 was great too. His handicap mark that day was 176, 2lb higher than the rating Denman ran off when he won his second Hennessy. I agree the race hasn't been anywhere near as exciting since they changed it.

    Lexus Chase

    Makes you wonder what Tidal Bay could have achieved had he been with Paul Nicholls throughout his career. Flemenstar travel's and jumps so well that it would be exciting to see him in the Champion Chase against Sprinter Sacre.

    Tingle Creek Chase

    Wow, never new Sizing Europe, Big Zeb & Finian's Rainbow were rated higher than Remittance Man & Barnbrook Again. Amazing.

    Tingle Creek Chase

    It's a real shame the Victor Chandler is no longer a Handicap given that it's Sprinter Sacre's next intended target.

    The Road to the 2012 King George

    This is a fascinating race on paper. I Can't see it happening with the the way the weather has been but it would be great if the ground came up good on the day. That would enhance the spectacle of the race because it would give the likes of Sizing Europe, Cue Card & Finian's Rainbow every...

    Greatest Tingle Creek Chase Winner

    The order I've put them in is from the oldest winner to the most recent winner. I definitely don't think Twist Magic was better than Master Minded or Sizing Europe.:) It's Moscow Flyer for me as well.

    Tingle Creek Chase

    I'd like to see a close race between the two just to make the 2m division a little more interesting this season. Outside of Sprinter Sacre and Sanctuire there's nothing else to excited about over 2m with Sizing Europe getting on in age now.

    I think Azertyuiop & Well Chief at their peak were superior to Master Minded as well.

    The Road to the 2012 King George

    I highly doubt they'll ever be a chaser that gets anywhere near the ratings that Arkle (212) & Flyingbolt (210) achieved. Kauto Star's fourth King George victory was as perfect a performance as your likely to see from a modern day chaser. Yet he's still rated a long way behind the top two...

    Radio 5s three bets horses of all time

    I know Shergar has been mentioned a lot in discussions about the greatest racehorse and from the video footage of his victories as a 3yo he does look very impressive. However, I don't think he was any better than two horses who came along when I first got into horse racing, Nashwan (1989) &...

    John Dunlop

    I hope he has a long and happy retirement. Of the horses he trained I'd say Salsabil was my favourite. She was a superb filly. Here's a couple of video's of her in action. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uM5oxhLvE10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpsgE_rH0Mk

    Frankel and the International Stakes

    Amazing racehorse. It would be so exciting to see him run in the Arc or Breeders Cup Classic but we all know there's no chance he'll run in either race. Champion Stakes then retirement.

    Irish Derby

    Camelot did that pretty well given the conditions. The most exciting thing that could happen for racing this season now would be connections deciding to go for the International against Frankel. Doubt it will happen though.

    Black Caviar

    Great to see Black Caviar being brought over but it's a shame we haven't got anything here to give her a race just to make it a bit more interesting. Then again I suppose you'd have to go back as far as Dayjur to find a sprinter that we've had that could beat her. The likes of Sheikh...

    Epsom Derby 2012

    It doesn't seem like it and that pisses me off too be honest. A match up between Frankel & Camelot would surely generate way more excitement than Camelot running in the St.Leger.

    Epsom Derby 2012

    Spot on. I don't know why anyone would rather see him win the triple crown than take on Frankel. I don't really see why he can't do both to be honest. Take on Frankel in the International and then go on to the St.Leger.
