    Yeah O.K. I’ll fall for it…..Secretariet was the most exciting horse in training (of any age) so at the age of two he was crowned ‘Horses of the Year’… he went on to win the Belmont by 31 lenghts.<br>I won’t ever mention the flat again until the end of November, and The Breeders Cup and Nad al Sheba.         ;)

    Sad news…… what I found strange is that there is no change in the Anti Post prices for the Arc.

    ‘Heart’s Cry’ for me, the only horse to beat ‘Deep Impact’ and would have won the Japan Cup…beaten by ‘Alkaased’ (after Frankie halfed thrashed it to death!) but no ‘shock to see the Electric one finish like a train as in the Dubai World Cup, sod it! I’ve just talked myself out of a bet!         ;)

    That bloke Matt Wassisname on ATR said "what’s the point of backing a horse at 5/1 when you could have backed it 3 hours ago at 20/1"….Where’s that at? it won that’s the main thing, and good luck to those that did bet on it.

    With showers predicted IMO forget the draw, I’m going for ‘Ice Moutain’…Smart won the race in 1999, and the sire Kyllachy? say no more!        ;)

    Fallon has the backing of John Magnier/Coolmore, that means he will have the best lawyer money can buy, how many Trainers will speak out in his defence….most of them! on a lighter note…punters wearing "Fallon is Innocent"  T shirts              ;)
