[joeluke]

Hot tip Stokie?

Can't see past the favourite myself, (although I won't back it - don't do odds-on), if he stays he wins IMO

[Psybbo]

I'll have a punt on Astrology

i cant see camelot getting the trip joe...bonfire has won well at 1m 2 furlongs and the going will be right...but then again this is horse racing so who knows??lol...im having a a good wager [well you never know]...

Any tips other than the Derby?

[stokemaveric]

[Wharton]

I want a wee 3/1 winner at another meeting!

[stokemaveric]

mmmm let me see wharton....

Let's hope for a genuinely run mile and a half. The Oaks today was won by a filly that should get a mile and a half, true enough, but the race was so slowly run at the start that there was a distinct feeling that there were other strong contenders at the trip who were disadvantaged.

[Wharton]

That means I'll need to get out of my kip by 2pm - I hope it's worth it! - thanks lad.

[ELVIS68]

During a busy nightshift, I managed to have a good look at today's runners and decided to have a little each way bet on Main Sequence.

Good luck all!

[stokemaveric]

hope you got out of bed wharton...a nice 5/1 winner there for you...lol

[FredPuli43]

Ah well, so much for the hopes ! Not convinced that Camelot is particularly good. He did what was necessary but the rest of the field was pretty ordinary. He cost 525, 000 gns as a yearling, so he's repaid with a bit left over for training fees, though !

'Not convinced that Camelot is particularly good'????

Top rated 2 year old

Won 2000 Guineas

Won Derby by 5 lengths


Hardly impressive is it?......I guess we'll see him lining up in the Triumph hurdle next March eh Fred?

[FredPuli43]

All that shows is he's the best in his year, Joe. Anyway, they'd geld him for the Triumph hurdle and that would muck up his stud value!
