    The 2025 Cesarewitch (Handicap)

    Certainly has hit the ground running has Billy. Hope he doesn’t turn out to be a shooting star.

    Lyrics Of Life was a non-runner, but she would have been hard pressed to beat the Gosden favourite, Sacred Ground. There had been strong stable vibes for her and she won well despite running green. Lot more to come there. 4:57 Southwell: Nova Centauri was unconsidered, but ran very well into...

    3:30 Yarmouth: Lyrics Of Life has had the misfortune to run into a couple of decent ones - 8/8 didn’t get a clear run, but switched and ran on to a good second well clear of the rest. 5/9 second, she had beaten the winner by four lengths last time, but that was that one’s debut and maybe...

    A non-runner and three seconds. You can’t complain at that, can you. Well, you can, but you know what I mean. Blue Bolt certainly looked at home dining at the top table and left everything for dead bar the winner and Rosario finished best of all to take everything bar the winner, albeit only by...

    Certainly finished best of all.

    Well, it looks like the weather’s turned nasty which puts a real damper on things and I suppose the sensible thing to do is to walk away. A busy day for notebooks, but two are running at Longchamp which I’ll just put in for the record. Unfortunately, there are two in the Sun Chariot at...

    The 2025 Prix De L'Arc De Triomphe Weekend Meeting Thread

    Unless a quagmire can’t see much to bother Minnie Hauk, maybe Sosie will give it a try unless he runs out of puff.

    St Anton would have won the race easily by two and a half lengths, but he had no chance with the debutant winner. Same for Enchanted Queen who ran into one, an odds-on favourite who opened at 8/1. Not sure what to make of that race, it seemed a very slow time.

    1:40 Salisbury: St Anton went into the notebook after his debut run at Newmarket - 22/8 lost position two out, but rallied well and finished well into third. Look for further. - After that he was odds-on favourite at Epsom where he came second after being slowly away, being bumped a couple out...

    That was a nice performance by Item, I thought. Difficult to know what he beat, but he looked good. Skiathos was a non-runner, but I’ll look out for him at the week-end (thx Oxford).

    And the headline today is: 'I've been booked to ride him since Royal Ascot' - Oisin Murphy confident of making Arc history on Byzantine Dream for Japan (Sorry about the bold - I can’t get rid of it on edit for some reason)

    4:22 Bath: Item looked quite impressive on his debut - 3/9 looked a bit green, but finished strongly and romped away towards the finish. Might be a bit special. - and must be well regarded since he holds an entry in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster. First try on turf, but 8/11 is probably a...

    Bow Echo won nicely and Humidity plugged on to keep second. QUOTES: BOW ECHO got a lovely ride. Billy [Loughnane] allowed him to relax early. I was keen to do it the right way round - we could have been forward and tried to make a test of it, but he has got a turn of foot and it was nice to see...
