Flat discussion
Enough of this jumps stuff now ha ha
Serious support for Gleneagles yesterday in the Guineas Market after a nice piece of work but i am hearing Richard Hughes hasn't been more excited about getting on a a horse since Canford cliffs (Ivawood) food for thought.

Re: Flat discussion
Whilst I enjoy the flat racing it just doesn't create the same sparkle as the jumps for me, still we have aintree and Punchestown to go yet...
Back to the flat I'm looking forward to seeing how Found gets on PJ, any early season news on her yet mate?

Re: Flat discussion
Although I prefer jump racing at the moment, flat racing is more accessible to me. I live a couple of minutes away from York racecourse which has quality racing every meeting (best race in the world) and there are a lot more local tracks compared to jumps.
I enjoy the prestige and cocompetitiveness of the Flat, I love the excitement and unpredictability of the jumps.
All horse racing is good horse racing!

Re: Flat discussion
Talking about the flat everyone get a watch of the 8.10 at Chelmsford.
Rocky Rider the winner is entered in the derby and pulled his way around for all the race and still won by 6l eased down and was never asked a question. He was mighty keen and still green before the race but looks really nice. Yes he only beat an 80 horse but showed his future isnt on the chelmsford sand.

Aidan Has War Field a $2,200,000 Purchase at Keenland 2014 & another out of score that cost $1.3 Million But Treaty Of Rome cost $2.5 Million and bombed in a maiden.
