    darren,I just cant see

    The Fugue

    as a 1000gns type at all,Oaks defineately!

    Elusive Kate

    on the other hand ticks the 1000gns boxes but she isn’t on my shortlist.Johnny G never seems to rush his horses and thats why I never back one of his for the Guineas.Nothing else from his yard appeals to me for either races neither.I like

    Wading

    a lot,I hope she erases my luck with

    Memory

    from last year! :twisted:

    For em the 1000 Guineas is all about Maybe. I think she was as good a 2yo as we saw in Ireland last year and the best 2yo in O’Brien’s yard, possibly Camelot aside. If she’s 7/2 on the day I’ll be Wading in :wink:

    Got the feeling THE FUGUE will go for the pretty polly race in Ireland

    Any thoughts on this FLEMENSTAR i think with cut in the ground he is the best novice chaser around.A top horse he is but needs it heavy i think he does.

    Nah darren I reckon she will go for the Musidora then Epsom mate! I have No thoughts on this ‘Flemenstar’ at the moment as apart from Punchestown i cant see a target for what looks to me like a horse who like you say needs to get his toe in big time!

    I’ve said it for a while now but if ever there was a horse who looks tailor made for a Grand National its

    Weird al

    ,I know he’s probably the lightest raced horse ever to run in the race,(11 runs to date)and its certainly a year earlier than I expected but fair play to Donald Mcain for committing him now.I’ve had a daft tenner on at 240’s on the machine,could easily have been 320’s but I left it! :twisted: Gives me another interest in the race along with

    Calgary Bay

    50/1,

    Sunnyhill Boy

    40/1 and of course

    Junior

    at 20/1,looks like I’ve lost on

    Burton Port

    but I’m happy with my 4 for the race,Cant wait!

    No need to send anything Gord, thanks for the offer. Just stick what you can on here or on the Wealth Warning thread. Thanks.

    Calgary Bay’s chance is small and will get smaller with every spot of rain at Liverpool. Big brute, one of the best looking horses in training. Races off a mark 12 lbs higher than two starts ago (both handicap wins) raised 6 lbs each time. Jumped well last time out, giving 7 lbs and a 2½ length beating to Shakalakaboomboom, and only 1 lb worse off here.

    Failed

    to run to form

    all 5

    attempts at further than 3 miles

    . Too free in 2010 Gold Cup (3m2½f). Fell at 4th only start beyond that distance in Grand National last year. Sire Taipan not noted for producing stayers. Calgary Bay seems highly unlikely to be suited by the trip. Raced

    mainly on good to soft or good

    . Seems to find more off the bridle than he used to.
    Calgary Bay has done well for you this season Gord. Seems as though you’re determined to follow him over a cliff.
