    2009 Arc.

    I think Kinane outriding him on Proclamation when he boxed Murtagh in on Soviet Song and forced him to take a pull and come round in her final Sussex Stakes probably still rankles - it does it with me anyway hor hor! Maybe he thought he'd take revenge in like fashion

    Sea The Stars - Retirement Announced

    What now for Sea The Stars? It was interesting hearing Oxx talk about Sea The Starts at home, and how you couldn't give him a rest or he'd get really difficult. It always amazes me with horses like that, that they can be handled at stud - how are they kept fit, and calm enough to handle? How...

    2009 Arc.

    ???? Wot?? the horse was in danger of running away with Mick and losing his race - he was almost out of control he got so taked up in the 2nd furlong. If Kinane has let him go off after the pacemakers as he wanted, he would have thrown the race away surely! Kinane took him back and settled...

    Saturday's racing.

    He's called Frame It, expected to do very well next year, hasn't run yet as he has a big frame and is still growing into it. He'a a half-brother to Al Quasi, good things expected!

    2009 Arc.

    Me too, it was a very good field of all the best middle distance horses i Europe! It must be a madhouse there, the Cadran is 15 mins late - are the runners walking miles and miles round the Parade Ring I wonder :blink::lol:

    2009 Arc.

    If only.........! He would be awesome next year, but could only repeat himself. I hope he doesn;t come back just in case anything happened to him, as it is he will always be a LEGEND - it would be tragic to spoil it in a way. I think Jim's had a lot of champagne which accounts for the...

    2009 Arc.

    Yep I said as much yesterday or was it the day before. Pulling out everything in not just on he but two G1 races in a season takes a big toll Great trick to do the presentation on track with carriages etc!

    2009 Arc.

    Channon talking now, how he must be thinking 'without the freak'! Makes it even worse that he wasn;t give the race 2 yrs ago. Yes it would be great to see Youmy in Cup races - but look at the ground he made up in the last 50 yards!

    2009 Arc.

    Commentary was rubbish - Jim missed STS fighting hard for his head and throwing himself around in the seocnd furlong, it was quite heart-stopping! - he was 'going thru the field' I suppose

    2009 Arc.

    Well he was and is the story - no question! Minnd you Mick gave us a real fright there - they were fighting each each other for the first two furlongs (totally missed in the commentary :mad: ) and then he got boxed by F&G I only had Youmzain and Conduit for places itn he race think Conduit...

    Rest of Arc weekend

    David Johnson also flagged him up yesterday, so there were a few of us having a go! I only put the win bet on today, got a decent price 15.5 on the mcahine Stan always had the Abbaye as the target, as he said in the RP today. Re the Jersey, I expect Coleman wanted a day out at Ascot! - the...

    Rest of Arc weekend

    Maybe they don't have many who like 7 flgs? He's dropping back, acc to the RP. You are brave man Luke, there are some very talented types in this! I see the first three coming from Siyouni, Lope and Dick PS Pounced for the Triumph Hurdle 2011??!! He's huge Poor ride from Hughes on Dick Turpin...

    Rest of Arc weekend

    I didn't see where she finished, was watching Frankie and Wedding March who had my pennies on - I expect BBC2 will show all the races again when they start up at 2.05. Very nice filly indeed, I do admire the Aga's bredding operation enormously and they deserve every success

    Saturday's racing.

    Still, there's always another day - I've just made back all yesterday's losses on Total Gallery, so the smile is back on my face! And to think I nearly decided to have a week off after yesterday... then decided given I'd patted Total on the nose only 10 days ago I just had to have a bit on...

    Rest of Arc weekend

    You can say that again :lol::lol::lol: I was on W&P, and apart from my modest win I couldn't be more thrilled for them all - they really graft and deserve every bit of success they get. This is their first G1 but it won't be the last. Perfect timing for me too as I've got half my 'yard...

    Female Jockeys

    Kelly Harrison and Amy Ryan are both improving rapidly too and getting decent opportunities. Sohpie Doyle did really well in Dubai and Abu Dhabi last winter, but she's struggled for rides since she got back esp as her mother isn't training right now. She's attached to the Moore yard and has had...

    2009 Arc.

    Someone on the Ch4 team - ?Francome - said that Ghanaati had started to go in her coat, before today's race. fillies tend to 'go over' quicker than colts when the autumn chills set in. Goldikova's race was very strange esp for France - a breakneck pace from the off. The point about Sea The...
