The July Cup (G1) at Newmarket tomorrow
I'm not understanding the odds....
If Sole Power runs he wins and not Slade Power. That's the way I'm seeing it anyway (but what do I know). Fun field and a great betting race! Hope that Noozhoh Canarias has a nice run too. Forecast: Slade Power (11/4), Due Diligence (9/2), Noozhoh Canarias (5/1), Aljamaaheer (7/1), Hot Streak (10/1), Sole Power (10/1), Undrafted (16/1), Astaire (20/1), Gregorian (20/1), Rex Imperator (20/1), Cougar Mountain (25/1), Jack Dexter (25/1), Justice Day (25/1), Moviesta (25/1), Tropics (33/1), Fountain Of Youth (50/1)

Sole Power is much less proven at 6f and seems a 5f specialist. His run this past December aside, where even then someone had to run second to the Japanese freak, he hasn't done much at the distance to show he can win here.
The track is absolutely drenched and that can make this a crapshoot. I like Astaire here. He's done some of his best racing over the course and distance and is proven over a bog track. He went too hard up front last time and if he can ration out that speed he can be there start to finish at a good price.

Can't wait! Noticed on your profile your favorite horse is the great Silent Witness... Isn't it so cool that he and Bullish Luck are together at Living Legends?

That was the heyday of me following HK. My interest started to drop once David Raphael and Mark Richards left their respective presenting duties. I still followed it, but it's become hard now that I rarely have access to the live feed.
I recently got a TAB account and followed the last few meetings, so hopefully my interest picks up again come next season.

Oh!!!!! Yes I know exactly what you mean and it will take everything I have to contain myself and refrain from listing horses (like Scintillation! Hello Pretty! Viva Pataca! Natural Blitz! Russian Pearl! Floral Peg! ) and races but yes... those were such exciting times!Were you on another forum back then, if you don't mind my asking? I was always either sunday or Vengeance of Rain on other places but no one much ever wanted to talk about those glorious geldings of HK!
