The French love a bit of dramatisation don’t they!
Oh they do, they do
What are they doin?
They do love dramatisation
Will Hill radio commentators (it’s all I can get) think that Fallon was doing more or less everything he could and that he had the stick in the correct hand, but also that the French stewards have reversed a decision for far less
I think they’re sitting on the fence 
Well they need to get they’re fingers out! The suspense is bad for my heart!

Would it be ironic if, after being criticised for running so many horses against each other in G1s this year, O’Brien loses his first ever arc because one of his horses affected the finishing position of another?

SOF and Zambezi Sun are well over-rated in my opinion, SOF’s Epsom Derby 5th showed how good he isn’t, and nothing he has done since changes that view. Both will struggle to gain a place.
