Lads have been relatively short about Kingdom of Naples all along ... significant? At the same time, they seem unmoved by AV and WI - when everyone else is shortening. Maybe I'm reading more into this then I should. Kingdom of Naples' maiden hasn't worked out. And traditionally I don't think...

Will he not be in Paris tomorrow?

Forgive his RP run, and the Guineas boosts Curtain Call's claims?

Laureldean Gale 20/1 - various Infallible SP

both half brothers won fto

Sheik Mo's spending is casting a dark cloud on racing if FC doesn't compete imho...

The way I see the Dewhurst, he gave New Approach a race. The only colt that did. He didn't run the perfect race. If you look at it, it's fairly amazing he ended up where he did. And then you have this crap from godawful about how he's working versus a home bred. The fact is, on form, he should...

I still can't understand Fast Company's price. Beat Raven's Pass fair and square but 3 times the price. Shows that gossip is more important than form when it comes to the initial stages of flat season. Oooh Simon Crisford reports he's hasn't worked well in Dubai, let's make him 16/1? If there...

Using Lady Deauville as a marker, I think Laureldean Gale remains the value in this race. Surprised not to hear any news from the boys in blue of her having a 'classic workout' like the colts though.

I realize it's speculating to say she had an off day and isn't necessarily regressing but I believe horses can have off days so wouldn't be so quick to write her off. I also think bookmakers can overreact to poor performances (as to hype) leaving some value behind. As far as pace goes, the Prix...

I think Laureldean Gale is interesting for this race. She had top form to her name at 2 - her half length defeat against Proviso, yet is 20/1 because she underperformed in the Boussac. Not sure if anything came to light for her poor performance, apart from her getting warm beforehand, but...

Potentially an Arc bid?

Perhaps you're right on the clock. I agree she was always getting there in the Prestige and it was run at a dawdle. I wasn't suggesting she didn't have classic potential, she's nicely bred for one thing, more that I wouldn't be interesting in backing her based on what I'd seen. I didn't like her...

As far as the night before Cheltenham, that alerts me to the fact the flat is fast approaching...and it's time to get back in the saddle, so to speak. I'm hoping Clopf runs a big race tomorrow, for what it's worth (not a lot, I'd say :)) I'm not sure on what grounds you can make the assertion...

What about Fast Company? Is with Goldolphin now, presumably will be aimed at Guineas. Is it too early to ask how he might compare with Ibn? He was probably my favourite 2 year old last year. Perhaps he lacks scope - I'd be interested to hear anyone's opinion who got to see him in the flesh last...

Considering the result of the French 2000, it would appear to be somewhat impossible to predict which Ballydoyle horse will come out on top in any given race.

On form, it's surprising that Soldier of Fortune is still 25s (twice the price of mcarthur and bigger than Mahler) ... can only guess he's not too high in the ballydoyle pecking order
