With the WFA and sex allowance the forum would have spontaneously combusted!!!

Had Dahlia been trained by JSB consecutive days would have been enough!
Pity about the going at The Curragh; every year since 2009 has been heavy Oaks weekend

She'd be a 25's chance wouldn't she?

Another big winner for Gosden.

Great Heavens is out of Magnificient Style....as is Nathaniel.
What a great ride from Buick. Totally outpaced at the 3 marker, must have realised he still had some horse under him and attacked again on the outside. Think she could be a major player now in the St Leger. Buick , class and style reminds of a young Steve Cauthen..

The next man for Ballydoyle if Joseph hits the Scrumpy or Bulmers!
Filly as cool as a cucumber; not a bead of sweat in sight, you'd never guess the Nathaniel connection.
JG smiling when legging up WB, reminiscent of K Fallon and APOB the year of Alexandrova, unusual before a classic!
J Murtagh's ride on Shirocco Star was Ted Walsh's prediction come through; he said JM riding over hurdles would make him like Tommy Murphy, dual purpose jockey for Clem Magnier turned MVOBrien jockey late1970s who used put flat jockeys "thru the rails" .
Ground horrible at The Curragh; they need to do a major drainage job in a hurry. They could look at Ascot or even Killarney for example of how it is done.

So hope she goes for this rather than the Yorkshire Oaks. With Camelot's presence she is sure to go off a backable price.
I'm surprised Johnny Murtagh got only two days for his ride on Shirocco Star.
He let his horse roll onto Was several times with his stick in the wrong hand and almost put Joseph O'B over the rails.
Joseph, on the other hand, got two days for overuse of the whip on Up in the Kilboy Estate States to add to the seven day ban he incurred at Ascot.
