Forgot to mention Lost Soldier Three, I'm having a bit on that, although I don't like backing Dandy's horses at 1m+!!

Guess you have to respect all the S.American-bred horses, and Greetings does look interesting. Although I believe Satulagi has more ability than she has shown, even after a busy juvenile campaign.


Elsewhere, I fancy Kitski for the Thyestes, that's if his sometimes fragile jumping holds up.

Also Thedreamstillalive could be a really good bet in the 3.40 at Warwick. He travelled like the dream was still alive on his reappearance before stopping as if shot. Sure to come on from that, down in trip and reverts to chasing. Must go well, even though Jim Old is becoming a disgrace to the training profession!

My best mate works at Ferdy's. he looks after that Another Promise that won yesterday. He told me just to back it for a place.......... so not sure how confident they are. I was with him back at college for the christmas ball when it won at Market Rasen and we both piled in, we got 10's early doors!!!

Ive backed the Pipe horse i that race, know its not much of a price but he is much better than that handicap mark, if a bit quirky. Yeah what has happened to Jim Old? I respected him a couple of season ago, but i think thats when he had his last winner. Surprised Wally Sturt has kept all his horses there to be honest.

I like Woodlands Genpower at Warwick too.

Sorry to My Miss Stormcat for changing her thread into an english racing topic for a couple of posts......... you still love me, right?

Conroy runs tonight in Dubai. Wonder if this is a prep for the Golden Shaheen?
