    Great call -unusual to see an all weather handicap sprint won so easily.

    I can pass on a good word for World Tax War in the 2 o clock at Leopardstown.Supposedly the best 2yo they have trained for a few years.Jockey booking has significance.10s to 7s with Powers -still some 9s available.Drawn in 14 -which could be a killer.
    I wouldn't go completely nuts due to the draw but 9/1 is a fair price.

    Aared in the 415 is an old favourite who has had a busy season - I think he is a place lay at anything under evens -the current 1.71 is a gift.

    I'm having a T shirt printed. Navy blue.

    On the front, in white lettering it will read 'Vibrato Valtat'.

    On the reverse, again in white lettering, it will read 'Kept on same pace'.

    It will amuse me anyway.

    The bad mistake from Royal Regatta 3 out probably cost VV the race IMO as it meant he was in front way too soon. He seemed to be going well enough but needed holding on to a bit longer Sam T-D made the same mistake on the horse a couple of years ago

    On the money with that Luke, just saw a little too much daylight from 14 but ran on well. Front 4 were well clear - moral for a maiden next season.

    Wd on place lay also.
