Ascot. Superb racing. Champions crowned…
And a joy and relief for all involved that today’s meeting takes place on genuine good ground. As opposed to the rain sodden going of some years when the whole day is a little muddled and muddied….
They do say (whoever they are…??!!) that good horses go on all ground – Frankel ground it out on this day. But “Good” as opposed to “Soft” means a level playing field for the season’s glorious denouement…
Those turnstiles will be clicking. And quite rightly so. A brilliant and fascinating and enthralling card..
Sadly, nothing for us on those Berkshire acres. We have done our running there for another year. The place has been kind to us…
MASSIMO BLUE will look to back up his Southwell win at Wolverhampton later. Jack Mitchell up this time. Roll those dice, nothing ventured etc etc etc blah blah…
Elsewhere, KA YA RISING has just won nearly three and a half million pounds by storming clear in The Everest at Randwick in Australia. Just WOW….
