Good work gigilo. 9/2 SP.

Good shout on laying the front two Luke - There was always the chance they would take each other on.

It is going to be a very interesting race given both principals penchant for forcing the pace. I would have made Thistlecrack a warm favourite and a comfortable winner against them though.

Wow, some serious racemates on that list - Thanks for putting it up Colin.

Architecture will prove to be a group 1 horse in my opinion. I was really taken with her and think she is one to follow when she can avoid Minding, who has to rate a good winner of the Oaks without being outstanding.

Frankel 4 from 5 now.... Very early days but the fact he's throwing precocious horses is exciting given how he developed over time. Bringing back memories and great to see.

Pretty impressive stuff - I was taken with him anyway. Not sure the stiffer finish or quicker ground will be any issue for him at Ascot and to be honest, i'm surprised 11/4 was on offer. He might bounce but if he turns up in that form the 11/4 would look silly. Boyles still 5/2 on RP site but...

Tremendous performance from the winner, no fluke as they were miles clear of the others. Delighted for connections and nice to see a cheaply bought horse beat the blue bloods.

Any views on todays 1000 guineas? Other than being FTO, Tanaza's form and breeding is not represented in her price imo. Backed her e/w for some interest.

Best being?

Solemia, Prospect wells and plenty of other stayers on the dam side if you go back a few gens. I think he'll stay and i reckon they'll run him.

Anyone got any views on the french guineas today? Can't say I have any handle on the French form but the English raiders would look to have a bit to find in a typical guineas. Nice to see a son of Zarkava running but a lot of non-group race form coming into this makes it a watching brief for me...

Ballydoyle's race was compromised by the start, whether she would have beaten Minding is a different question but she didn't have a clean race.

Maysons winner was mighty impressive..

I don't like Bartlett, poor commentator. Calling Thommo a **** is out of order, as someone else said, he might be a bit of a plonker but a thoroughly nice bloke. Malcom Tomlinson should get more gigs, possibly my favourite commentator.

Coolmore are surely getting to the point where they realise War Front isn't a classic sire..... They have been supporting him so much for the last few seasons but his horses generally don't get a mile very well. Dettori deserves credit for another great ride, last few seasons have reminded...

Sheikh Hamdan has entrusted him with a fair few horses - He has only had runners for that owner so far.

Backed Marcel e/w at 10's. RP trophy not necessarily a great indicator for the guineas but I was quite taken with that run, his pedigree suggests a mile to ten furlongs will be his trip and he'll stay.

Power looks a good e/w bet to me

And Nicholls is still winning championships but in spite of his jockey and the situation; because as I said earlier he is undoubtedly a great trainer. He was just untouchable when Ruby was there.
