I'm very much of the opinion that every horse will go on a surface they don't like once. Because they don't know any different. Danehills can't get out of their own way on dirt. His record is awful.

He has been in poor form really, when you consider how good he was a 3yo.

George has been taken out of both the QEII and the Champion Stakes at the last minute. I don't think all is well with him if i'm honest. The Classis is a complete U-turn on what they had suggested not that long ago.

Any chance that George has been going through fertility tests?? Could be possible that we have seen the last of him. I don't see any reason to go to the Classic when both the QEII and Champion have looked like perfect races for him. Neither were brilliant races, especially the Champion, which looks weak for a race of it's nature.
