I'm hoarse and normally I don't shout too much.

He looked beat at several stages there but what a finish!

I can't wait to find out what kind of finishing sectional he put up there.

Not in the least surprised and not trying to express surprise. Just stating the obvious.

They're pissing about with people and pissing them off.

I was hoping that Benie Des Dieux would have been sired by Benny The Dip.

My inclination is to offer you some encouragement, DH.

That said, my angle for the race is to ignore Min altogether. It was a very fast race, made so by Special Tiara who probably went too fast up...

I don't think so. Quite the opposite, for me.

He was fit to race in November and didn't have a hard race at Newbury. He'll do a Sprinter.

Having Douvan in the CC would be the best possible thing to happen to Altior.

I can't think of a better horse to set the race up for Altior. The track record could be at risk despite the ground.

I'm not sure he was below par in the Arkle. I went very high with my figures for it. I don't think they went that fast through the race and the closing sectional was lightning fast. Off a stronger...

Been reading my mail, Bear? :D

This is what I wrote in my review of last year's race:

Not sure the race actually amounts to much - the sectionals will be interesting - but Altior is just wonderful to watch.

Has this been mentioned elsewhere?
