Re: Oaks & Derby!
If O'Brien thinks Camelot is going to win the Derby, why is it still entered for the St James Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot over 8f, and the Eclipse at Sandown over 10f. He's either very confident it can win over any distance (Not seen very often), or he's hedging his bets. You decide!!!! Or maybe we'll wait untill after the race. Just a synical observation, you know how much I adore him, or at least you should have figured me out by now. LOL (Its obviously going to walk it now). Me and my big mouth!!

Get so pissed off watching him with a mobile stuck to his shell like. Creep!!!!! He had half the field one of them had to win but if any other trainer trained those horses that O'Brien doe's they would of won the Oaks & everything else he has ever won. I say let Barney Curly train them all let him be champion trainer

Re: Oaks & Derby!
St Nic was good today, probably running against a bunch of 2 milers made it look a bit better than it was, will be interesting to compare the time with the Derby.

Re: Oaks & Derby!
Camelot does look very good.
Come on Main Sequence....or Camelot if he wins by 5 lengths

Re: Oaks & Derby!
price was a disgrace!
the first 3 home was nailed on, Bonfire was an easy lay for a place if your into that kind of betting

Re: Oaks & Derby!
A very impressive win, albeit in the weakest Derby for years. I'll wait until he's taken on the older horses before stating that he's an all-time great though, mainly because I don't think he's beaten very much today. He certainly looks like a star though I think the St Leger would be a mistake though, as I'm not convinced he would win it. He wasn't pulling any further away at the finish today, and I think he could be vulnerable to a fast-finishing stayer in the Leger. If they keep him at 1m2f/1m4f he should remain unbeaten this season, unless he's taking on Frankel.
