    Did Charlie Appleby say something about possibly going here after yesterday?

    Appleby announced on Godolphin’s website that the plan is the Foret and the Breeders Cup Mile.

    Just checked he said “he thinks” just for the record, but I’m going to take a chance as well, just managed to get some 4s left, the price is tumbling.

    Pinatubo 4/1

    Space Blues still for me

    Hes been getting better and better this season

    If pinatubo does turn up at least I will get a better price

    How does it go…..if Pinatubo does turn up in the Foret, you’d probably get about 7/2 on Space Blues. That means for every 2 pounds you’d put on, you’d get absolutely nothing back…. :rose:

    Frenchy will be feeling the blues after the race no doubt if he is this confident

    If it’s soft or worse I’d really like Safe Voyage for this.

    Obviously no guarantee of that, so not an AP betting proposition.

    BUY THE SUN

    FF91 do you think there is a chance that Space Blues will go for the Super Sprint instead? 2nd/3rd fav for that.

    Foret was identified as the target after the Maurice de gheest and appleby said he would be happy to run both in the foret

    Suppose there is a chance the plans could change

    He could even run in both as they are 2 weeks apart

    “In doing so he ended the unbeaten run of his companion-in-colours, Earthlight, and afterwards Charlie Appleby suggested he would have no trouble pitching him into another ‘blue on blue’ encounter against Pinatubo in the Prix de la Foret. 

    Appleby said: “Seven furlongs is his trip. I’m happy to have as many good horses as we can and if it means running them together, then it’s a sport. One thing His Highness [Sheikh Mohammed] likes to see is sport and competition. We’ll see who is best [between him and Pinatubo] in the Foret.”

    Market suggests a change of plan for Pinatubo….Can’t say i’d be shocked given Godolphin already are strong here….
