Wide open race. Not a lot of confidence behind the fav. The best horse in the race but maybe not over 12f. Whirl for me.
Once again, your favourite Uncle Smart Arse keeps the wolf from the door - just!If they water heavily and it's an unseasonably easy surface on Oaks Day, the one with the profile I like (though friendless in the ante-post betting right now) is Minnie Hauk.
She won the Cheshire Oaks on what seemed dead ground to me, she's a proven stayer and never underestimate the capacity for any Frankel progeny to progress.
He knows me so well.Nice one, smart arse![]()
I was but she's actually more of a present day Maria Callas!!!!He knows me so well.
Thank you, sir!
And well done Barnestormer too (plus anyone else who backed her) I think he was all over the 19th century Taylor Swift as well.![]()
Till the day I die no one will convince me that Whirl's jockey didn't let Moore win that. The jockeys were talking to each other and Lordan was pretty obviously saying, "On you go, Ryan."
Well done,Ian and all other MH backers![]()

Ryan would have won on the runner up NQATAgree! Wasn't an awful lot of persuading going on in that last furlong!
However, Coolmore's Whirl is a short-priced favourite for tomorrow's race and is 33/1 so I've added that to my 'Oaksfolio' (sorry for the plagiarism, Ian).
I could do with watching the head on as I do think you are correct DO. Minimal assistance from the saddle there.Ryan would have won on the runner up NQAT
LOVE this - well done, Len.Many thanks, Ian. I do follow you in on the big races.
