    A Plus Tard comfortably a 160+ on that performance. Serious horse.

    Fantastic performance. Well done backers. Think I’ll stick to the Irish horses in these handicaps.

    Would have won the Arkle.
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Surprised to see Cap York not declared for the Pertemps. 40/1 for the potato race.

    I'm wanting Bun Doran declared for the Grand Annual tomorrow. According to the trainers website he will run, but after what happened with Solomon Grey yesterday I am taking nothing for granted. Forest Bihan could also run and he might do better than expected, but my stakes are down each way on Bun Doran. Fingers crossed.

    Forest Bihan runs off the top weight, will have a small saver on him too.

    Ch'tbello comfortable second fave at 8s in from 20s. Was hoping Whisky Sour would go for the Coral Cup, this has a serious chance.

    Will have e/w savers on Pinshou as well.
