    The Morny form still looks superb.

    Arcano has been terribly disappointing both starts at three though. Meehan said he would need the run in the Greenham, but for him to be off track for so long and back in a low standard race shows the alarm bells may be ringing at home and the horse isn’t as good as they originally thought, he hasn’t trained on, or has been suffering injury/illness which has been kept quiet.

    Regardless of the above, he doesn’t jump well at all and it does cost him. Proper chasers would take a couple of lenghts out of him at every fence.

    That reminded me of Noble Alan. Very good over hurdles and not bad over fences, but Aintree on Grand National day was a perfect example. His speed was causing them all sorts of problems on the flat, but his poor jumping was leaving him fighting an uphill battle all the time and was losing the ground he was making on the flat every time he jumped a fence, eventually running out of steam.

    He is absolute poetry in motion over hurdles. Whenever Nicholls talks about him though, he is hell-bent with the idea of him going back over fences. Hopefully the Stewart family will see sense and keep him hurdling, as he could clean up for a good few years yet.

    Can’t see past Goldikova. Although, if Rip kicks for home a long way out he could have Goldikova and Paco in all sorts of trouble.

    All I would do would be;

    ————————————
    Lucky 15

    12/6/2010

    Group B
    South Korea vs Greece
    GREECE TO WIN

    Argentina vs Nigeria
    ARGENTINA TO WIN

    Group C
    England vs USA
    ENGLAND TO WIN

    13/6/2010

    Group D
    Germany vs Australia
    GERMANY TO WIN

    15 bets x (unit stake)

    Stake =
    ————————————

    At the odds though, you’re going to need them all to win to make it worthwile, as if one gets beat you may not even make profit even if the other 3 win.

    A straight accumulator would pay better.
    The Greece game could go either way, so just leave them out and lump on the other three in a treble.

    England, Germany and Argentina treble pays 2/1 with Hills.

    I think Simon De Montfort ran in France in April. French Derby this weekend?

    Kingsfort is injured I think and will probably be fit later in the season.

    I know Delegator has some entries at Royal Ascot but couldn’t be sure why he hasn’t been out yet.

    Heard nothing about Evasive.

    Anyone know if Patkai is running this year? Or Monsieur Chevalier?

    She will be used sparingly however, John Oxx was worried today about the ground and says its unlikely she’ll run unless there is cut in the ground for the rest of the year.

    I don’t know what this horse will have to do to convince some people! Won me money again and it couldn’t have been easier.

    I am currently siding with SNA to win and Fencing Master E/W.

    Will be having a good study this week though, as there could be something further down the betting with the possible potential to make a top class 3yo.
