How is he or she anyway?
No, definitley Emirates Challenger. Probably just the name not been registered. Not sure, not been in touch a great deal since I've been in Oz.

Okay I'll keep an eye out.

Sporting Life...

JEALOUS GAMEPLAN IN LIMBO
By Nick Robson, Press Association Sport

Plans are fluid for Jealous Again, Godolphin's newest high-profile recruit.

Formerly trained by American Wesley Ward, the juvenile filly posted one of the most impressive performances at Royal Ascot when bolting up by five lengths in the Queen Mary.

Subsequently bought by Sheikh Mohammed, the Ascot form was boosted by the impressive success of Queen Mary runner-up Misheer in Wednesday's Cherry Hinton.

"We were delighted with the result on Wednesday," said Simon Crisford, Godolphin's racing manager.

"The filly is not in our stable at the moment and we are not sure when she is likely to arrive.

"She will be really interesting but I can't tell you where you are likely to see her because I don't know - but she is obviously very interesting," he told At The Races.

Crisford also had news of Rio De La Plata, last seen finishing third behind Tamayuz 12 months ago in the Prix Jean Prat.

"Rio De La Plata had a setback in the spring, which meant that he had to have time out of training, but he's back in full training now," he said.

"He had a respiratory problem and could be back in the second half of the season.

"Obviously we've got to get him fit enough to go for a race.

"I wouldn't have thought he'd run in the International at York first time out, but hopefully we can go forward and have a really good campaign with him."

I think the Sheik and Bill gates are the only people who can lose $12-$20 billion dollars and still sleep well at night,

Our?? friends.......? I think you'll find that is incorrect.

Now they just go and rub salt in the wounds for me. First of all, Kitewood is allowed to be sent off at stupid odds of 2/1....... how on earth? He should have been around 6/5! Fortunes were there to be won!

And then, after all this time telling myself and others that Spring Of Fame was a winner waiting to happen, they wait until I'm out of the country to run him in a race that suited him.

I don't like them, and seemingly that feeling is now mutual

Reminds me a lot of Desert Authority.
Not sure who is going but Covert Ambition, Donativum, Crime Scene and Prince Siegfried all possible for Newbury Saturday (Shadwell Beech House Stud Stakes).
