Ha, obviously they don't agree ... Now 33s 🙃

25s (Bet365) is big about Glamis Road in the 1:30 at Epsom. (Didn't stay 10f at G3 level last time out)

Hang on a minute ... Is this rain thing becoming a little overdone? 5 mm today. A little bit more tomorrow and Saturday but not as much as today. On the parched ground of Surrey. It'll probably just be regular good ground.

I have backed Tornado Alert at 100s but I don't actually think he's likely to stay. And I have backed Tennessee Stud at 66s because it's a race worth having a couple of long odds ew chances. I'm waiting on the weather but expect my main bet to be Ruling Court: has the top class form and on...

Fair enough, that made me chuckle! You are right of course, it should hold the record being downhill. And that exposes the hype. It is fun to actually be there, though.

I agree hype is tiresome, but no substance? Not so ... The fastest recorded 5f, according to the Guinness Book of Records, was set in the Dash in 2012.

Second maybe? Quote from an online article about the 2000G: "An old adage states that the winning formula for the Derby is ‘fourth in the Guineas, first in the Derby’. The last horse to fit such a pattern was the Paul Cole-trained Generous in 1991, although the 2008 2000 Guineas runner-up, New...

Great spot Desijo, thanks for the heads up

Lovely!

Tipped by Rory Delargy in the SL at 12/1.

I know Jasour has won after a long break in the past, and he has had the wind op - maybe I shouldn't discount him too readily!

The question for me in that race is whether, as the market seems to suggest, the ground will be more to the favourite's liking than her last outing. That could be wrong - I guess it'll be drying out today and tomorrow. If the ground doesn't best suit the favourite, and assuming Jasour needs the...

Nice one! Corals offer 25s and 4 places, for anyone interested

Montjeu - Arc and KG. Generous - Derby and KG, not as good as Montjeu but his Derby was my first big antepost pash and he won so thrillingly, hence my forum name. Jumps - Desert Orchid KGs; Kauto Star many times at Cheltenham and Kempton; Sprinter Sacre at Cheltenham - his comeback especially...

Two NRs ... Rule 4 and 7 runners put a slightly different complexion on the bet. On the positive side, she now has only six rivals and she's still 18/1.

For a moment I thought he'd be in the shakeup, faded after the last

I'm tempted by 28/1 Our Sam in the 3:30 at Carmel (ew four places). Well-weighted on his best form, as evidenced by the fact that he was 11/4 fav to win a similar C&D affair off 115 last August. He has not run well since, but was never involved over a shorter trip last time out. Now racing off...

Anyway, well done Luke!

Hmmm ... he chose a v risky inside route 2 out when he could have followed Anmaat outside

Fair dos. Hearing the other point of view prevents me getting carried away!
