    Exactly Ian. Hugely informative and entertaining. Ive so enjoyed the breeders cup since we got it shown over here.Yes the guys are great at it but surely we can do better than what we're served here. Same with the nba coverage compared to the Premier league. Totally different gravy.

    TV coverage

    I too have reached for the mute button on many ocassions due to just how tedious and clichéd the presenters are. Is it too much to ask for the presenters to have as much interest and knowledge of the horses as I and thousands of racing nuts,have. Tom Scudamore clearly knows his stuff and shows...

    That and when your heart is weak are just two banging tunes. Play them regularly. Such cool,brilliant music. It's hypnotic stuff.

    I find it ridiculous that we send young people to put their lives on the line for this country yet when the soldiers need help we don't fund their care but rely on charity. My dad, and I'm sure a lot of peoples dads on here ,fought in the second world war and 3 others of my family fought in the...

    I watch the last couple of mins before the races just to laugh at their bias for certain horses and how badly they tip. Only chappers tipped calandagan. Just saying.

    Went to the punk all dayer in Glasgow this summer. Skids,rezillos,buzzcocks,undertones stranglers and pistols with Frank Carter. Only 72 quid. Fabulous day.

    Songs you'd forgot about.

    Seen just about every top punk band bar the clash. Never my favs. Preferred big audio dynamite if I'm being honest.

    Songs you'd forgot about.

    I thought I was old but you guys making me feel young. I'm a punk at heart but my sister introduced me to James Taylor,Paul Simon,Carole King etc so got a fairly mixed taste. Went to 23 gigs in six months winter 77/spring 78. So many great venues in Edinburgh. Very few now.

    Songs you'd forgot about.

    Going to quite a few gigs. Loads of bands from the 70s and 80s. Madness and squeeze,nine below zero and doctor feelgood. Nothing better than going to see a cracking band live. Went to see men without hats recently and they were tremendous.

    The 2026 2,000 Guineas

    As usual it all depends on who develops the most from 2 to 3. A few underperformed in the dewhurst so I wouldn't be looking at it for the winner. I'd wait for the trials first then look at it. Also depends if aidan actually targets the race plus of course whether Charles Darwin or Albert...

    Only as old as you feel. After a tough five a sides yesterday I feel like an old codger. Be back to feeling young(ish) again hopefully tomorrow.

    Equine Retirements, Long Term Injuries and Departures

    He's been an incredible sire the last couple of years and a superb outcross for coolmores huge band of galileo mares. Very sad news and he was producing so many top class horses. I wonder if coolmore will buy into siyouni now. That would seem the logical step for them as relying on delacroix to...

    The 2026 2,000 Guineas

    I think John magnier has the final say from what I've read. They listen to ryan/Wayne and aidan suggests but the boss ultimately decides if they are not in agreement hence why aidan says he will wait to see what the lads want to do.

    The 2026 2,000 Guineas

    I'd love to be a fly on the wall when aidan and the lads discuss what to do with each horse. Horses like auguste rodin were always going to struggle to win the guineas but the lads still really value the triple crown. I often wonder how aidan would train the horses if he had full say in their...

    Diamond necklace looks a star of the future. Any of the first 4 in the moyglare could go on to great things too.

    The 2026 2,000 Guineas

    Not sure that's true. A few of the horses he had who were fav just needed time which they didn't have. It is true to say that the 10f group ones are now more important than the guineas for stud purposes so maybe they aren't as worried about not being spot on for the guineas.
