    Two tomorrow of reasonable interest pedigree wise:

    King Of Comedy

    Kingman looking a very decent sire, early days, but so far so good. His mother produced Star Of Seville (lovely mare and a G1 winner) + English Ballet (mare placed in G1) to name a few..Trained by John Gosden, i am excited for his debut tomorrow at Sandown 3.00

    Jabalaly

    Moohaajim still awaiting his first win, however, this guy is related to some decent horses;Tabarrak (7f-1m inc at 2/Listed; RPR 115), The Wagon Wheel (5f-6f inc at 2; 102) and Dubai Acclaim (6f AW; 77); dam 6f 2yo winner (stayed 1m; 99), half-sister to useful 6f-7f winner Zero Money. He could well be ready first time out but, either way i will be interested to see what he does tomorrow.

    Welcome back Steve :good:

    I was actually quite happy with south pacifics run steve, very raw and plugged on, but its obv too early to tell.

    The godolphin runner today, line of duty caught my eye, should have won, is he there first galileo runner? Could be one to keep onside, would be funny if he turned out decent for godolphin.

    Green as grass but hosed up here:-

    Looked at least as exciting as Calyx and was flying away from them at the end.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    The Kingman’s do catch the eye. This one in the same colours as Legends of War and all three being with Gosden. If they all stay sound and improve nicely, it’s a long way off and plenty of water to pass under the bridge but I wonder how many turn up in the Guineas.

    Is this site hacked?

    Looks like Pharmacy pages are coming up in place of the categories you would expect and the preview for areas of the site thrown up by Google Search is showing the contents in the various areas of the site as items for sale from the same pharmacy.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    Like Steve said this Thread is completely lost here and I completely forgot to post up two lovely 2yo fillies that I saw at Newmarket last week.

    ROYAL INTERVENTION
    Trained by Ed Walker was an all the way winner of the Class 1 Listed Betway Empress Fillies Stakes, ridden by Gerald Mosse, she is a beautiful long striding filly daughter of Exceed and Excel and Exciting Times and she really took the eye in the paddock. Owned by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Lady Lloyd Webber I will definitely be following her progress through the season.

    The second filly STRINGS OF LIFE (Slade Power/Nashama(Pivotal))
    trained by Charlie Appleby was running on well in he final furlong but was never going to catch the winner who was 4 and a half lengths up at the Post.

    A really tough race to call the winner before the off as the betting showewd and even the 3rd filly IMPULSION will win when the ground gets a bit softer as she has a very high knee action and ran a good race on ground that she definitely did not favour.

    Please could we ask VTC or Matron to move this Thread to Horse Racing :yes: Jac

    I’ll only be posting on this thread on occasion Jack and only then until I can be confirmed as a Cat fosterer. It’s estimated that it takes 30 hours a week to do all the associated work in preparing strays for new permanent homes.

    Anyway. When I do a search for “The Racing Forum” on Google, a pharmacy comes at the top of the search results and sub-headings under “The Racing Forum” heading in the search result page show headlines for Valium, Viagra etc

    It’s almost like getting Roaring Lion on one page and Roaring Hard On next to it.

    I saw Jean-Claude Rouget’s Invincible Spirit filly Spirit Of Brittany was out at Clairefontaine today. Having won on her first start, she was a short favourite for the relatively low key affair. Tucked in behind over the 7F trip she was patiently and confidently ridden, coming through easily to take it up and cosily come away to win 2 lengths in what was no more than a piece of work on the gallops visually.

    Spirit Of Brittany looks ready to step up into better company now.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    Oh Yes Darren, I’m going on the Friday and looking forward to seeing Alpha Centauri in the Falmouth and then back for the July Stakes on Saturday where I have backed Limato to turn the tables on Harry Angel (if they run him)….will report back here after…

    Anything you’ll be looking out for Darren as you say some cracking races to look forward to. :yahoo: Jac

    I’ve gone with Legends Of War at 5/1 in the July Stakes.

    The son of Scat Daddy looked superb on debut and while others have achieved more so far I doubt John Gosden would be sending him here if he thought Calyx was that much superior to him and it may be that the trainer will be fitting colts to different paths, being in the enviable position of arguably holding the best three colts in terms of potential thus far this season.

    Hopefully Legends Of War will win this on the way to another target, while Gosden plays “Horse Tetris” fitting them in so they don’t have to clash.

    Not an easy race to call but I think the colt holds a bit better chance than 5/1. I would say 7/2 is more representative.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.

    King Of Comedy

    Thought he was very impressive and could be another very good 2yo for Gosden. He seems to have a nice team again this year…

    Jabalaly

    ran to an RPR of 80 on debut after completely blowing the start. He made a lovely debut when catching up with the pack, he was given time to progress through horses and stayed on nicely at the finish. I would say he could be marked up on this run, and considering he went off 7s, not much market support, i would hope there’s possible progression.

    Both will be in my tracker going forward anyway!

    Steve, he’ll likely shorten to that if Sergei doesn’t feature.

    It will be an interesting race for sure…couldn’t back any currently myself, I still remain sceptical on Legends of War a tad, form wouldn’t be stacking up behind him, for all he made mince meat of them.

    One from the Harrington yard who may be worth a lookout is PURSUIT OF MAGIC.

    This filly is by Kingman out of a Linamix mare. The Dam has thrown only one decent horse so far and most of her offspring have gone to Pascal Bary.

    Owned by the Niarchos family, Pursuit Of Magic is entered in the Moyglare and also has an entry for Leopardstown this week.

    Thanks for the good crack. Time for me to move on. Be lucky.
