The opening and closing sectionals shown on C4 were wrong. No idea why. The 'correct' ones are on the Turftrax site:

As the Racing Post are currently proving you don't need any kind of official license to print racecards.

I got similar using ORs but Ascot **** me off by only having one other race on the round course the day of their most prestigious race, making speed figures for the King George more guesswork than...

Probably only the fillies' allowance between ET and Tag right now; both open to more improvement but would suspect more so the former. Anyone who watched the Gosden interview post his Ascot win knows...

He's retained by an owner with a runner at Haydock.

My apologies for my earlier post, there's 11 decs:

Especially as we already had the Middleton Stakes :whistle:

I think the rules of Pattern races say they have to have a proper name. I can't think of too many British Group flat races that are known by their sponsor rather than their 'proper' name. Probably...

There was a thing about it a few weeks ago when Richard Hughes wrote a piece in the RP saying that artificial watering was ruining courses; the BHA came out (in the RP) with self-serving stats...

The handicap over the same distance looks an odd race. Winner is 8yo but won by 10 lengths. Would probably get an OR in the low 70s after that if he wasn't so exposed (might anyway!).

HR ran the...

From the Guardian:

To the "32Red Cup" for its new sponsor.

Try that again :blink:

Glorious stuff from Colombia.

Torrential rain in Recife prior to Germany / USA apparantly.

Suspect it might be reduced on appeal but yeah, that's a pretty tough stance.

His Dubai win was also the partial product of benefitting from being held up off a stupid pace. He might never get those conditions again.

To play devil's advocate:

- Cameroon were fairly shite against Mexico in Natal before they went near Manaus - remember Mexico had two good goals disallowed and Hernandez missed a tap in late on.

Some player quotes on the matter here:

Do your 'take the winner out' thing and the fav Adelaide has won that fairly comfortably. Very exciting horse; Gosden seems ready to drop him into something like the King George.

Every sport other than football is a minority sport. That said, I believe racing is still the second most-attended sport in the country which, whilst probably a bit misleading, is not nothing.
...

I agree, but I don't think its coincidence that that race was run at a cracking pace whereas both his 12f wins (Derby & Arc) weren't so strongly run and didn't allow him to show his full superiority...

I would say running Camelot on that ground is high up on the list of decisions AOB wishes he could change.

I think it'll be the Sea The Stars scenario; Irish Derby unless its soft, keeping an entry in the Eclipse the following weekend as a backup. Assuming all is well, a break before the Irish Champion...
