    I think it’s because it starts with a ‘G’ which isn’t a soft sound (if that makes sense?). And I think of French as a soft, gentle language. Anyway, we can agree that he’s a bloomin’ amazing horse and a worthy champion! I absolutely adore Il est Francais, too, and am gutted that he didn’t win the KG after a performance that took me back to the Dessie years. (name wise I loved Jair du Cochet, too).

    Al Boum Photo’s lack of recognition was more due to only turning out a few times each season; more evidence how the Festival is strangling NH racing. I hope CDH goes for the irish Gold Cup; it’s a big prize in it’s own right, not just a prep for Cheltenham

    Wtf. Who cares about the name. If he doesn’t get you excited about jump racing nothing will. So many des champs horses so everybody should be used to it by now surely.

    Lossiemouth in the mares. Non runner wouldn’t matter it would still be incorporated into the multiple bet.

    The more I know the less I understand.

    French commentators’ attempts to pronounce Juntos Ganamos are generally even worse.
