Why not wait for Kenilworth tomorrow - Disco Al, think they should threaten this horse with deportation to Ngong, just a gentle whisper in it's ear, and you see it will win:D

My tip - wait for payday -D

That'll teach me to have a punt on a work rider.....thought Ruby Chimes was a good thing.

Jock must have thought he was sitting on horse Chestnut re-incarnate and not a modest maiden filly running at the vaal

Seems dead down that inside rail??
