    Leopardstown: Thursday 16th

    I'm leading a work expedition to Leop tomorrow, about 15 people, none of us know anything about horse racing.

    Notwithstanding that, I have been asked to go through the card at lunchtime and help people pick some winners. If anybody has any steers, tips, insights are general knowingness will you post it here. It needs to look like I thought of it and makes me look intelligent on the topic.

    Usual thanks.

    Slim and I have a wonderfully intimate friendship that you will never penetrate.
