    Ruby in RUK

    I was surprised with McNae having Ruby in the studio talking about the Festival and not asking him if he is riding Hurricane Fly, Thousand Star or neither of them.

    It was Agnes McNae, Suny.

    Not the most intelligent and incisive 'reporter' around.
    Ah! but a man's reach should exceed his grasp......

    It wasn't a slip, Kri.................just a rather sexist reference to my perception of Angus's abilities. (apologies to Agness wherever)

    Oh, thanks, Colin. So that's what you think of women - not intelligent, not incisive. It's not 'rather' sexist, it's well worthy of the bleedin' Taliban.

    "That why no need educate wimmin. They not intelligent, they stay home, make baby and cook food. Fuckin useless at incisive camel racing analysis, anyway."

    I find Krizon's remarks about the Taliban highly discriminatory, and not in a good way.

    Do not mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance nor my kindness for weakness.

    He is stood down for the day at Naas
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Went a helluva smash at the last hurdle off KING OF THE REFS, holding hanky to his forehead after taking some time to rise. Very nasty - BORO BEE, who was horizontally BD by KOTR, seemed to fall with her hindlegs over Ruby - maybe she clipped his head with a back shoe. She was down for a time, too, but fortunately just winded, got up and walked off looking fine.

    Boys - go to your rooms now. I shall be along to chastise you thoroughly, unintelligently but definitely incisively, later. (Sharpens tiny hooks on the flail... )

    Ruby has an eye injury, not thought to be serious.
