    Bolger said of Turret Rocks: “Basically she’s an Oaks filly for next year and I was very happy with her run”

    After beaten by Ballydoyle in French G1

    “I have to put my hands up and admit I left her a bit short for Newmarket, but that race will have set her up nicely and I couldn’t be be happier with her,” Bolger said.

    After Newmarket 1000 Guineas

    Been looking at some of the videos/sectionals

    A lot of people have said how impressive cloth of stars is

    However when you look at a video of his win at Chantilly then compare it to Pour Moi (who won his derby) or Visandar (who came fifth in his) when they won the same race, then there’s no comparison. Cloth of stars nothing like so impressive. I’ve heard the jockey and trainer say he’s a different type to Pour Moi, translation: he’s not as good?!

    The time of cloth of Stars race was just over Pour Moi’s course record time and possibly beat a very good horse in Robin of Navan who could be the French Derby winner.

    Mr Dunlop on twitter seemed very relieved that Cloth of Stars was running at Epsom.

    The only horse to win pulling away from a previous Group 1 winner in a time only surpassed by Pour Moi. Trained by a Genius and will appreciate the step up in trip.

    Cloth of stars Max Bet Win 7/1 NRNB

    Good luck all :)

    I have enjoyed reading posts on here the last couple of months.Personally i love an ante Post punt !

    I thought i would express my views on this years Oaks

    2 horse Race Minding and Turret Rocks.

    Even before the Irish Guineas i doubted Minding’s stamina for the Oaks. With Turret Rocks form being enhanced by Marenko and an easy 1000 guineas prep it has to be a max bet e/w @ 7/1 NRNB Turret Rocks for me.
