Yorkshire Oaks (Gr1)

[NoChanceToDance]

Just got back from York (boy, i forgot how far it is from Newmarket to York and back again).

Great day's racing for all (apart from my wallet)!!!!

Only winner i backed was Sir Gerry.

I managed to pick out the 2nd and 4th in the Ebor and Fred's Lad (3rd)...... wasn't enough to keep me in profit though.

Greatwallofchina was a big let down to the Ballydoyle camp who expected a very good effort today. However, if you saw him in the paddock you could be forgiven in thinking he was a 5yo. He was so laid back, and he raced too lazily for his own good. Johnny said he was still a big baby and didn't really know what he was doing. He should win next time.

Was good to see dome old friends from Germany and Ireland who i haven't seen in a while.

Beautiful day there, but came home to floods
