    WOW he was brilliant.
    Well done Mike, Tonge and all who backed him. What a lovely looking horse AVD is.
    Great run from Madhmoon 2nd for Kevin Prendregast.

    What on earth was going on with Telecaster?

    Oh and of course…Well done Ginger :good:
    Oisin has just said Telecaster ran a bit flat…expensive day out for his owners. £85,000 out of pocket. :-(

    I think that will be a very nice return for Ginger Frenchy Tonge and Mike who were on
    from early on. Well done ladies and gents :good:

    Raymo, I’m a bit sick for you mate, you just missed your Oaks/Derby double by such a
    small margin. Madhmoon ran a cracker of a race for you, I think Hefferman taking the
    gap and getting to the rail was the deciding factor. That must have hurt :cry:

    Nice return on the race, BigG; but with three losing races today I needed it. Phew!

    Lot went against Telecaster. Sweated up a bit more than you’d like beforehand. Drawn where he was, Oisin rightly played the percentages to get a good early position (like York)… But because of that was too free. Also ending up closer to what looked an overly strong pace. imo Not Oisin’s fault – just one of those things – and did the right thing in easing off once not in the money. Will do better, possibly at 10f.

    At least you got one to save you Ginger, if Aquarium doesn’t win the 5.15 or Watchable the 5.50
    I’m up a certain creek without a paddle :unsure:

    Am obviously glad Anthony Van Dyk won, but experience told today. Don’t expect him to be the best of these. In this order – Japan, Sir Dragonet and Madhmoon will probably be rated higher by season’s end.

    Rewatched the race and Anthony van dyck did so well to win

    3 furlongs out he got stuck in behind telecaster, line of duty and circus maximus who were going backwards and gave up several lengths to broome, madhmoon, Japan and sir dragonet

    Cracking ride from seamie given the bad luck he suffered at that crucial point
