    Had a great time on the Frankel Tour yesterday and have posted a couple of pics up on Joni’s Why Frankel Will Rule The World Thread, nice one with Lady Cecil there. :good:

    Also visited William Haggas Yard and will post a couple of pictures of Sea Of Class who looked amazing and I’m posting a couple of pictures of herself in her box at the yard, sadly she was not due to stretch her legs but got a few good shots and can confirm that she was showing off and is in very good order. :rose:

    Here a couple of pictures I took of Sea Of Class at William Haggas’s Yard yesterday.
    She was in good spirits.
    Not the best of conditions,it was a bit overcast, but you can see how alert and fit she is even from the head shots.

    Sea Of Class – Dreaming of winning the Arc :heart:

    Frankel and Lady Cecil re-united with a tempting carrot.
    Frankel loves his food and has been on a diet. :rose:

    Thanks for those Jac, very nice photos
    Did you ask Haggas about Ertijaal, he probably has forgotten who he was and all focused up on Sea of Class
    Have a good holiday Jac….. :heart:

    Hi Nathan :bye:
    So sorry but didn’t get the chance as he was doing health checks on a load of his horses with the vet and only waved at us all as we invaded his yard.

    Even had Sea Of Class tucked away at the back end of the yard, we had to specially request to see her, it was worth it though she’s a bundle of energy and loved the attention.

    Saw my dear old Tasleet and made a fuss of him, told him he was up against Harry Angel on Saturday in the Sprint, he said he’s going to have a go at taking him on if the ground gets softer..now I have to choose Tasleet or Limato??
    Good luck Nathan on Saturday, glad you liked the pics.. :heart:

    Ps…I have a Juddmonte Frankel baseball hat for Alex (or you) if you want it as I have 2 now.
    I’ll get that off to you at the end of the compy if you want it. Jac x

    Hi Jac, thanks for the thought
    maybe you could send it to Jonibake because as much as I liked and appreciated Frankel I was more a Canford Cliffs person at heart so Frankel was a bit of a Nemesis. lol

    You might need another reserve or two Jac,
    looking like Tabarrak will be a non runner

    I was thinking about the Frankel cap, Jac
    Maybe you could put it up as a prize to the breeders Cup competition

    Hope your holiday is going well and I’ll knock the scores up some time on Monday. Good luck with Tasleet. The going should really suit. I’ve gone for my mate Harry Angel in the end. He’s got his own ideas about the game but has served me well before and it would be great if he was to jump out and run with the others.. :rose:
