have you had a tip for that 350 race mate? unless i'd been given a word i don't think i'd bet on it with stolen money. there is an equal split of late and early foals too by the looks of it, nothing to draw from.

tempted to chuck a reverse forecast on arctic cosmos and hurricane higgins,the latter shoulda won the derby trial at lingfield last year when i backed him, was furious as the bugger was pulling, hanging and virtually unrideable when dordogne was begging to be passed. followed up with a series of disappointing efforts but should have a far better temperament after being gelded. AC is undoubtedly the class act but this looks to be a bit too sharp for him, would probably get further than the leger trip tbh.

Easily the bet of the week.

Bradford to win by 1-12 - 5/1 looks tasty too.

Trouble is 10/11 (Bradford +14) at £10 only returns £19.09.

5/1 at Bradford to win 1-12 looks the better bet to me.

Bradford and Cas

african story arctic cosmos double instead. dettori reckons the former his best chance of the day, godoolphin obviously target the race and money is piling on it. taking arctic cosmos to have the class to beat these, as all the rest have bigger questions to answer whereas arctic may be able to get away with the drop in trip. could look a very nice price in about 15 mins.

boom, work done for the day in about 12 mins, loved that drift on arctic cosmos. as soon as hurricane higgins came off the bridle with plenty to run then the writing was on the wall. hanagan deserves a medal just for getting fair trade settled, ran like a nutter. two easy wins. nothing better on the flat than frankie oozing confidence on a fave.

See the hype horse got beat again in Meydan, 5/4 fav aswell

1 day, o@Brien may realise he's a grinder and not a finisher, and his best chances will always come on courses with a long finishing straight.

International at York in August....absolutely nailed on.

think its obvious now so you think is a good horse but not a great one, the racing media love to hype up such horses. looking back now, the expectation a lot of people had before royal ascot was that as soon as ryan moore pushed the button he'd of been away and won eased down by 5 lengths, when that defeat proved that (despite what o'brien said after the race) he had probably indeed ran his race that day. proves that the world cup race is a joke though, if monterosso wins a 10f group one in either england or france i'll eat as many hats as i can get. speaking of hype, i got suckered in by an article on the rp and got a little bit greedy tonight - all for a paltry 6.60. had a tenner on union rags (was antepost kentucky derby favourite) and leparoux gave the horse a stinker. he's actually held his hand up and admitted he got it wrong, which is a change. http://espn.go.com/horse-racing/triplec ... 1-fl-derby never mind, still up by a nice sum for the day so pleased in that respect. feel like a bit of a mug for betting on american racing though, when i pay very little attention to it apart from what is on the RP website and other mainstream racing media. horse should've won though tbf - can't really give myself too much stick for backing the horse as the jockey cost him the race, he dropped it out too far away from the pace and the front runner did them all up. no idea why though, as last time he was fairly prominent and told the horse to go a lot farther out and smashed the lot of them. side glance looks a good thing tomorrow, although this will probably just be a pipeopener. cant take him at evens, no way. was a beaten favourite on his reappearance last year and faces a couple of genuine performers in st moritz and the gosden horse. not willing to take a chance on him first time up, if the main rivals are ready to rock and roll he may not be able to get away with needing the run.
