    Thanks Nick and Andre :yahoo:
    So happy with that as she was the first Godolphin horse in my notebook this year..the other was Treasure Fleet so watch out for him too both really nice types.
    Guyla desperately unlucky in running short of toom twice and getting blocked on the rails as she was challenging VQ she’ll win her next race and looks a really nice filly.
    :good: Jac

    Chelmsford
    7.15 – Arabian Dusk *NAP* – WIN

    Some say she didn’t seem to get the 7 furlongs in the Nell Gwyn last time out but I would dispute that as she stayed on very well for fourth place.

    I would suggest that she hated the ground which during the course of 2 hours before her race changed the going from good to good/soft and she got unbalanced when meeting the rising ground to the finish. I think that she ran a brave race in decent company and tomorrow I believe she will show what a class act she is :heart:

    Lady With The Lamp won a nice race in Cork but I thought she took a while to get going and would prefer
    Running Queen as my EW bet
    I think she will really appreciate the polytrack at Chelmsford.
    :good:
    Jac

    Arabian Dusk – WIN :heart:
    Running Queen – 11/1 – EW

    Plus Rev/forecast

    Taking price for AD in the morning.

    Best of luck if you have a bet tomorrow..Jac :rose:

    Well..got that totally wrong.. :scratch: Arabian Dusk only ran for about 5 furlongs..not sure if she didn’t like the polytrack but no excuses tonight.
    Terrific run from Lady With The Lamp. :good:

    Onwards and sideways 🤪

    Newmarket starts tomorrow and the Godolphin competition. Jac. :good:

    I’ve been thinking of BigG this morning
    He won plenty of competitions and I’m wondering if admin may have an address when sending a prize, possibly.

    Graham’s absence is very worrying – hopefully he’ll be back in touch soon. :rose: That’s a good idea Nathan – maybe someone has an email address or even a phone number…

    A very nice win with Victory Queen! Well done Jac.

    I see the leaders in Godolphin are off to a flying start – 330pts already!! It’s Kentucky Oaks/Derby weekend here in the US…… hoping for a double here with Good Cheer & Sovereignty, and why not the same in England with Desert Flower and Shadow of Light.

    Good Luck with any bets and comp selections this weekend.
    Take Care

    Yes brilliant idea Nathan somebody must have an address for Graham..really worried about him now and miss him. :rose:

    Enjoy the Kentucky Derby and Oaks Andre and yes really have my hopes pinned on Shadow Of Light tomorrow, hoping Buick has chosen wrong but Barzelona a great choice he’ll steer him home. :good:
    Desert Flower looks a good bet on Sunday..can’t wait to be there and see her. Unfortunately it won’t be glorious sunshine like today a chill north easterly wind and cloud forecast, as long as no rain I’ll be happy.

    Good luck in the competitions?, I scored 300 points for Silver Knott today, thought he was going to win when he took up the running but Bellum Justum caught him. :wacko:

    Will post a few more Newmarket hopefuls here tomorrow..9 Races and a great day ahead..good luck. :good:

    So it’s the Lucky Last and traditionally for me I go in with a big priced horse, but today have to cover my bet with the lower priced 1st string…

    David O’Meara has a great record of springing a double figure winner on big race days so it’s..

    5.50 – Darkness – 40/1 EW
    And..
    Mirsky – 9/1 EW

    Rev.Forecast

    Not a brilliant day thus far and hoping the lucky last can turn it round. :good: Big ask but miracles happen. :heart: Jac

    Br glad to be there tomorrow getting a good look at the horses in the paddock. :good:

    Weather turned out OK in the end Andre, very cold wind but lots of sunshine. :good:

    Had the most amazing day at Newmarket today with 3 winners all Godolphin ridden by Will Buick, the best of course being Desert Flower….

    Here are a few photos of the amazing and beautuful Desert Flower…

    Here is Desert Flower and Will Buick parading after their win. 🏆
