    He’s one defeat away from pace making duties or being sold abroad I’d say

    He’s more second hand car salesman than con man

    He is more boycie than del boy

    Keeping the faith with elmalka

    This track should suit her much better

    She will be rattling home in the final furlong

    Hopefully fallen angel and opera singer go hard up front and set it up for a closer

    Ramatuelle also very interesting if coming over and played later

    Doubt he’d have won had he got a clear run but he’d have likely finished 2nd or 3rd

    Just looked like he wanted a step up to 1m4f

    Perhaps royal ascot or the grand prix de Paris next

    Ghostwriter looks to have an excellent chance of franking the guineas form again

    He did well to finish as close as he did given he fluffed the start

    “I’d say there’s no doubt he’s the best Derby winner we’ve had,” said O’Brien

    Sure aidan sure

    This years best horse ever

    You’d think he was a stallion salesman or something

    “GM23, there has been extensive research to show that horses run faster under a jockey. It may appear counterintuitive (as you say, when they’re riderless, they are carrying no weight) but the science says otherwise.”

    Did Dr Nick Riviera do this study?

    Absolutely brilliant from ryan moore that

    Horse proved a lot of us wrong

    Glad I never bothered adding to ancient wisdom who had no chance on this ground just enjoyed watching it

    Ylang ylang was beaten far too early for it to be the trip that got her beat

    She comes off the bridle very early in her races

    I’d wonder how much effort she is actually putting in

    Suspect the issue is mental not the trip or track

    Was even worse than I thought watching the head on triptych

    Dance sequence will be a good bit better on a flat track you’d think

    Maybe not as good as Ezeliya but you’d think there’s a group 1 win in her this season.

    The third also hung up the camber all the way down the straight so can mark her up too

    Ylak ylak very poor there

    Didn’t have a bet myself but did make a late switch and put ezeliya in my 10 to follow so very happy with thar

    Bit of tarnawa about the winner the way she travels so strongly and has a good turn of foot

    Dance sequence ran very nicely but looked like she got badly unbalanced on the camber

    Was willing on hamish there having not had a bet

    Masterclass from moore, that’s how you ride a small field tactical race

    For me horses that win over 1m2f as 2yos are almost always boats

    And boats don’t usually win the derby

    I’d worry about whether he has the cruising speed to stay in contention when they quicken

    Which is why I had him down as a leger horse more than a derby horse
