    As usual I need someone to provide me with a link to Radio Sport 927 or Melbourne Radio. I usually stay up all night pretending I’m in Australia.

    Done Willie Mullins after his victory in the breeders cup.

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    I had a big notion for weeks now that Onesmoothoperator had a great chance.
    He was 12th last year, although he had a really rough race, he was much better
    that the result suggests. He does nothing all year (I’m not suggesting anything
    Mr Ellison) and then heads down under on a good weight and wins the 220 grand
    Moonee Valley Gold Cup. All was looking well …..until this bloody deluge.
    He’s fit, but he’ll hate it. I had backed him at 20s a couple of weeks back, I
    watched him drift out to 33/1 5 places today. I’ve taken a bit of that but I think
    it’s probably throwing good money after bad in all likelyhood. He’s never run on soft
    going.

    I had to back him because I would have hated willing him not to win if he was going well at the end of the race.
