    Out to 28s ff, insanity, couldnt have had him myself as i said above, but he was obviously extremely well thought of at home, not usually a yard where one goes a walk in the market and does thay

    It is FF the 2000 likes to turn over odds on hot pots.
    Well done the winners.

    wd if you found that one. Justify horses not training on from 2 to 3 perhaps? Would be a worry for the Justify 2 year olds this season going into next if true. Will see if anything comes to light as COT beaten a long way.

    “Is the hype going to come to fruition”

    Wasn’t Justified ;-)

    Pity Henry Longfellow not allowed to take his chance but we couldn’t have a Dubawi winning now could we….OH WAIT.
    I mean, I have no particular grá for Godolphin but that is hilarious.

    Always remember, AOB says what suits the Coolmore business. They massively exaggerate in order to try and up the value of their prospective stallion.

    That’s 2 years running from O’Brien. Not a top trainer in my book and Ballydoyle is too big for him nowadays.

    He can’t get them fit at home.

    Notable Speech. Was by a proven Guineas sire ( Dubawi). Was only entered in 1 mile races so had the speed but wasn’t entered in shorter races so not a sprinter. Reading the race descriptions he had the magic word ‘ quickened’ in his profile. For years now I’ve looked for the word ‘ quickened’: something that Guineas winners need to do.

    The derby also just became a much more interesting race

    Looking forward to the trials now

    Coming into the Guineas City Of Troy had a Timeform rating of 125p.

    Noble Speech was second top rated at 119p. Massive Price!

    Rosallion third top on 117p.

    Noble Speech was under-rated by many purely because he’d not run at two.

    “That’s 2 years running from O’Brien. Not a top trainer in my book and Ballydoyle is too big for him nowadays.”

    I think he is a brilliant trainer but they’re desperately casting around for the next Galileo and haven’t found him yet, they just have to hype the lights out of the latest horse by one of their own sires every year and hope it comes up with the goods.

    Last year it was Auguste Rodin- out of a bleeder by a sire who died relatively young of a weak heart. This year it’s a colt by a druggie stallion who was trained by a druggie trainer. It will be no surprise if his progeny can’t train on without dope.

    Well done Jac and Ginger

    Rosallion ran a decent race considering the negativity surrounding him beforehand
