    Beauty Parlour

    Stewards bought off by Wildenstein then in order for him to moan about Piggott, then fall out with Cecil, giving him an excuse to remove his horses from Britain. Nice little conspiracy.

    Hi Gigilo, do you have any thoughts on any races at Market Rasen on Sunday?

    Irish Colours Registration

    Is it possible to reserve them? I wouldn't mind reserving some over there, not necessarily in case I have a horse over there but just to stop someone else having the same ones. You can reserve them in the UK even if you don't intend of using them straight away.

    Queally

    Extraordinary ride. He appeared to look for walls of horses as opposed to gaps and when the gaps came he hardly made any effort until the last few hundred yards.

    It is unraced.

    Irish Sales.

    OTB, you're looking at last year's results. The top lot today was 130,000 and was bought by Potts.

    Royal Ascot

    Haven't had time to look at the races properly yet other than a quick replay due to work but I'm going on Saturday so would like to know what's it looking like in terms of how the ground is and what's the draw bias like?

    Royal Ascot

    I bet the owners of Crius are pissed off. A runner at Royal Ascot isn't something that happens very often, never for most people, and Richard Hughes disgraced their horse. What was he doing?

    Great ride.

    So what was the draw bias like today? I didn't take too much notice having only watched replays quickly this evening.

    Black Caviar

    Jane Chapple-Hyam's yard is owned by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum, who's had horses such as Master Of Hounds, Musir, Lizard's Desire and Eagle Mountain with De Kock, and was Mike De Kock's satellite yard when he had horses over here.

    Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe 2012

    I'm not sure. Have we seen the best of Camelot yet? He's rated the same as Sea The Stars was at this stage, and has only had four starts so will likely improve. Sea The Stars ran better races after the Derby, like in the Eclipse. It doesn't look a vintage Arc either by my reckoning.

    Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe 2012

    Why's it seen as so hard for Camelot to do both? Sea The Stars ran in the Irish Champion and the Arc which is only 6 days before the St Leger takes place. Also I'd imagine Camelot can win the Leger without taking too much out of himself as it's hardly likely to be an extremely strong field.

    Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe 2012

    Golden Lilac looks big at 25/1 but it's probably because of the uncertainty about whether she'll stay. Lovely horse though.

    Epsom Derby 2012

    If he was mine he'd go for either the Eclipse or Juddmonte now, wherever Frankel goes. I'd have to take on Frankel just to see who's better and it'd be a huge clash. If he gets beaten, so what? You'll still have the first Triple Crown winner for 40 years. Then obviously I'd go for the St Leger...
