I realize he has a couple of races in the past that seem to make him competitive, but he does seem like the least likeliest Euro, but considering what will likely be huge odds he may not be a hopeless throw in. I think the horse he beat last time, Killybegs( ? ), was pretty well beaten by one of the favs, maybe Araafa.

I like so many horses in the Mile it isnt funny. The Mile is all about trip. I really like Gorella and Librettist. However, I wouldnt be surprised to see a wire to wire victory here.

Silent Name looked good working on the Works...

He's also due to stand stud here in the US after this year, I believe. It'd be a good thing to see him do well.

yeah,
Im not a horse person like a lot of you are,
but he did move really well the other day.
and that would be cool for him to stand here.
the Japanese are not letting us get much of the SSilence blood back in this country.

Darley's vet told me this morning that Librettist was doing very well from the pulled muscle he suffered last out.....
