Those taking 4/5 about Lambourn are certainly suffering from a bad case of recency bias but they have 2½ weeks to recover
June 27, 2025 at 22:40 #1734802I’m going to bet Lazy Griff here. I just think that he’s a very nice horse, and I’m going to have a big ew bet for me. I’ve not taken 12-1 just now, as I have an inkling that come Sunday he may go out in price a little. I hope that I’m right in that regard
June 28, 2025 at 20:09 #1734994I think Puppet Master is something of the forgotten Coolmore horse. I was thinking of him for the Derby, and he has to be worth an each-way bet.

So don't run, just like the others always do
June 28, 2025 at 23:59 #1735019What are all three of Serious Contender, Shackleton and Thrice doing here? How many pacemakers do Coolmore need?
Sometimes, it appears that they are running (ruining?) horses just for the sake of it – look at poor old Continuous, for example.
June 29, 2025 at 07:35 #1735031I’m keen to take Lambourn on , this is going to be ran very differently , Tennessee stud ran a monster in the Derby being one of the few to get involved off the pace , if rather play him e.w at 5s

June 29, 2025 at 10:19 #1735048Wouldn’t bet against the fav winning this. As seen yesterday when Ryan Moore rides one out in front they are difficult to peg back. And it’s a classic winner they have to peg back in this if its the same strategy.
June 29, 2025 at 11:09 #1735054Why should they not run? With them they would be 7 runners. There supporting the race and that’s good. JM said years ago he just they owe it to the breeders to run in these races and that’s a good thing. You don’t seem to keen on collide so your opinion is steep in a little hate.
June 29, 2025 at 12:13 #1735060Is this up there with the worst derbys on paper ever?
Shackleton @100/1 e/w
June 29, 2025 at 13:31 #1735063It wasn’t a vintage derby so the Irish version was always going to look weak

June 29, 2025 at 14:43 #1735070Puppet Master – 16/1 EW
Love to see him win this.
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...June 29, 2025 at 15:01 #1735076Having backed Lazy Griff e/w for the Derby and the Leger I couldn’t leave him alone for this!
June 29, 2025 at 15:06 #1735078Interesting that the huge disparity in price between him and Lambourn still persists. I hope that having Buick on board might narrow the gap. 🤞
June 29, 2025 at 15:26 #1735080Lambourn could prove too strong but at the odds looks worth taking on.
In the Derby the majority of head of the market were near the back end of the field. Pride of Arras showed his inexperience and lost it by being too head strong. He’ll have to be closer if settling. Green impact is the other that interests meGaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
June 29, 2025 at 15:28 #1735082This isn’t Epsom , smaller field to , the fav will get a race today
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
June 29, 2025 at 15:46 #1735085It’s 8-13 and 7-1 bar. Blimey. The opposition needn’t have bothered turning up. ;o)
June 29, 2025 at 15:51 #1735088Yeah – no odds-on shot has ever been beaten.
