“May remove their coats….”
Thankfully, nothing more. Coats. Not Jackets. Potatoes have jackets…
Panama hats aplenty. Fans fanning. Heavy air. Hotter than Panama City…
A race for the ages. A Sussex Stakes that will live long in the memory. For a stride or ten, Billy looked caught in one of those ghastly Goodwood pockets. Hard to see where the seam of daylight and clear sailing was going to drop. Opera Ballo and William Buick gone for home and seemingly gone for all money…
Gstaad grinding away. But then the eye was drawn to a streak of yellow burrowing into open space and flying fast and wide and fabulously well. An arm raised in jubilation but also relief. Some horse…
BOW ECHO is very very good. He has claimed brilliant victory from the jaws both at Ascot and now Goodwood. Billy The Kid, the new wunderkid, and a mount that is defining his early career.

Our Day Two runner TEX causing a bit of a stir as a “nationwide gamble” saw his odds tumble. By the off, he was vying for favouritism. 6 furlongs was always going to be a big ask, and so it proved.

In calmer waters at Leicester, CALAFRIO making all under Benoit de la Sayette to keep our name up in lights and on hot lists. Huge congratulations and thanks to patient owners Ged, Yvonne and Josh Hill. Their filly won well and easily…
Nothing “Glorious” today. IMPERIAL CULT (Neil Callan) to Epsom. Three wins from his last four…
Today’s “stabs”. Mainly in the dark…
CIARRAI ABU, ADAAY OF SCARLETT ew, ENCELADUS, DIAMOND NECKLACE, OLD IS GOLD, LEAVE THE BAG IN (strange name..??), SO LOVELY, ELECTRIC DREAMS…
