    It’s the big test on Saturday for Sea Of Class

    As she runs in the Irish Oaks. Think she is up to it and have backed the horse at 3-1

    But they know what they are doing and I do think they will be a powerhouse in next year or two.

    Like that have placed their Scat Daddy 2 year old Kadar with Karl Burke

    The colt is yet to race but word is he knows whats what
    Has an entry for Doncaster next Thursday

    Beautiful ride.
    All comers, all grounds, all beaten!

    Runs in the 6.15 Haydock

    Got a Gosden/Dettori hot pot to beat.

    Took the opening 11-2 each way, now 9-2. Be significant if he proves strong against the favourite who won on his debut

    Some nice comments this week from Trainer Karl Burke about ​Kadar

    "A Lovely horse with any amount of ability...pedigree is laden with Stamina...cut in the ground would be ideal"


    Set to go Haydock on September 6th for a mile maiden

    Did not get a chance to post this morning but ​Brundtland finally made seasonal debut today in France and Won a listed race @ 18-10. Would not be a surprise to see him running on Arc weekend
