    The 2025 Derby

    I think TLIW should stay well enough. His dam won twice over 12F, both on good and soft ground.

    Whats the best horse youve seen race live

    Breeders Cup Turf 2003, Santa Anita late evening sunshine. High Chapperal dead heats with Johar, Falbrav a head back in third. I turn to the late and much lamented Lord Hartigan. "It doesn't get any better than this, Brian. "

    The 2025 Lockinge Stakes

    Alex, I spend about 4 months a year in Spain and until recently I was leaving a betting float with a brother in Ireland and texting my bets which he'd place. Hated him knowing my bets and my stakes. Then recently bought BItdefender VPN, very inexpensive, and when you turn off WiFi and use...
