1000 Guineas (and beyond)

[milo]

Are there any bookmakers that pay first past the post on French races ?

 

[Gamla Stan]

Fallon's ride on Lady Of The Desert is absolutely comical!

By the French rules, Special Duty deserved to win the race.

 

[Aragorn]

Winner deserved to be demoted to be fair - Was more like a stock car racing overtake than horse racing!

LOLLY FOR DOLLY for me. Smart wee thing (no, I haven't a clue about ratings, times, etc. - just liked her action and her attitude).

 

[sunybay]

Anna sali would be interesting with a jockey in her.

I'm sure that is frowned upon in western society.

I'm sure that is frowned upon in western society.

there are areas though where its probably encouraged

 

[krizon]

Hey, when you're short of camels, especially the pretty ones... !

 

[Grey]

Giraldus Cambrensis, a somewhat hostile source of information concerning matters Irish, claimed to have witnessed an initiation ceremony for the king of Connacht which involved the new king having sex with a white mare. The mare was then slaughtered and its flesh and blood were placed in a cauldron in which the king proceeded to bathe before it was all cooked up and dished out to the onlookers.

Was this the real sport of kings?

 

[chroniclandlord]

I don't know when I last saw a classic where a case could be made for so many of the runners.

 

[krizon]

There's another story concerning white horses - where was it that a white stallion was permitted to roam free for a year with mares, while all the land he covered being given to the king? After the year, the horse was captured and ritually killed. Was it a Spanish tradition? I must stop falling asleep during the History Channel!

 

[Ardross]

So Fallon does not get back on Music Show !

His season is going OK but he cannot come anywhere near competing with Moore he is already 20 or so winners behind.

 

[LUKE]

I was Fallons biggest fan but he is well off the pace in my opinion.

 

[krizon]

Has he had as many rides as Ryan, though? Ryan's riding through entire cards at some meetings (take Lingfield, 19 May as an example), while Fallon mightn't have a single horse all day.

 

[milo]

Liliside did not lose the race for barging out early in the straight, she lost it in the final furlong for closing in on LOTD. Unbelievable.

 

[Guest_]

I like Lolly For Dolly alot but I would be worried about the ground for this one based on the fact she has handled plenty of ease in the past.

I loved Lillie Langtry last year and I am trying very hard not to back her right now as I am pretty sure she will need this badly. Think I will just watch the race and hope Remember When runs a good Oaks trial.

 

[chroniclandlord]

I Think I will just watch the race and hope Remember When runs a good Oaks trial.

She ran a great Oaks trial.

 

[Guest_]

She ran a great Oaks trial.

Indeed - I have her at crazy prices for the Oaks so delighted with that. Lillie Langtry stayed on nicely too.

 

[krizon]

Well, Suny Bay, it looks as if having a jockey on ANNA SALAI worked a lot better than having one in her... I hope you can manage to be gracious enough to revise your opinion (as well as your spelling) of Ahmed Ajtebi!

Very exciting finish, with some rather big-name disappointments. Sorry to see the lovely LOLLY looking limp, but as you say, Gal, maybe the ground was agin her today. Nothing there when kindly requested to go on.

 

[jinnyj]

Lillie Lantry ran a blinder - I had a small investment on her just out of sentiment not really thinking she'd be ready and while I was waiting for BF to come up, saw Bethrah walking around - really, really liked her, checked her price and stuck a couple of quid on her at 23s. Dogs are now terrified by the amount of screaming that went on at the TV. (Sorry I couldn't share it with you earlier but it was 30s to the off!)

 

[krizon]

The hounds ought to be delighted - that's another week of Pedigree Chum, instead of Valu-Pet, for them!
