The opening and closing sectionals shown on C4 were wrong. No idea why. The 'correct' ones are on the Turftrax site: http://www.turftrax.co.uk/tracking/Glorious2014/GWD300714R3_1M.pdf

As the Racing Post are currently proving you don't need any kind of official license to print racecards.

I got similar using ORs but Ascot **** me off by only having one other race on the round course the day of their most prestigious race, making speed figures for the King George more guesswork than anything else.

Probably only the fillies' allowance between ET and Tag right now; both open to more improvement but would suspect more so the former. Anyone who watched the Gosden interview post his Ascot win knows how much they think of him. At the prices I'd happily have him and Magician ahead of the front...

He's retained by an owner with a runner at Haydock.

My apologies for my earlier post, there's 11 decs: The Fugue Night Of Thunder Verrazano Kingston Hill War Command Mukhadram True Story Trading Leather Tulius Somewhat Zambucca Obviously a couple ground-dependent who may pull out but it looks a good renewal with the chance of something special.

Especially as we already had the Middleton Stakes :whistle:

I think the rules of Pattern races say they have to have a proper name. I can't think of too many British Group flat races that are known by their sponsor rather than their 'proper' name. Probably the 'Juddmonte' is the only one often referred to solely by the sponsor name; I don't see the...

There was a thing about it a few weeks ago when Richard Hughes wrote a piece in the RP saying that artificial watering was ruining courses; the BHA came out (in the RP) with self-serving stats claiming that watering was needed to prevent injuries/fatalities. Lots on Twitter about it at the time.

The handicap over the same distance looks an odd race. Winner is 8yo but won by 10 lengths. Would probably get an OR in the low 70s after that if he wasn't so exposed (might anyway!). HR ran the same time carrying a little bit more. The official WFA scale doesn't actually cover 2yos running...

From the Guardian:

To the "32Red Cup" for its new sponsor. http://www.racingpost.com/news/live.sd?event_id=1169791&category=0 Ardross to have a conniption in 3, 2, 1...

Try that again :blink:

Glorious stuff from Colombia.

Torrential rain in Recife prior to Germany / USA apparantly.

Suspect it might be reduced on appeal but yeah, that's a pretty tough stance.

His Dubai win was also the partial product of benefitting from being held up off a stupid pace. He might never get those conditions again.

To play devil's advocate: - Cameroon were fairly shite against Mexico in Natal before they went near Manaus - remember Mexico had two good goals disallowed and Hernandez missed a tap in late on. - With England/Italy its harder to separate an effect as it was their first game; but if there was...
