 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
R22 Wild Blue Yonder (11th) - a lowly finishing position but he was beaten less than 2.5l. R25 Accessible (7th) - poor horse and simply wasn't good enough. R26 Dust Devil (7th) - see above. R27 Gold Chain (6th) - ditto. R30 Madness (10th) - the drugs don't work or may be they work a bit too well. should have called him Reefer Madness congrats to all winners and placers.

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
It took me until the very last race of the week to put a  on my face. There's no better feeling than watching one of u fav horses go out with a bang Flowing. Thanks flow for putting a smile on my face. Why oh why does Marling need a extra yard in every race, I don't know how many times she's lead a few yards past the post in most of her races. It doesn't matter if its 7 or 9 furlongs it's always the same. Did this week's races have marks improvements, if it does then it doesn't work because the Arc was a joke of a race. It was as slow a race as u can have and yet most of the horses wanted to go backwards. I gave up on my horse after 6 furlongs and for the first time ever I skipped the race. That was the ugliest race I've seen this year.

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
SO CLOSE to my first G1 winner, YORB 2nd in the L'Abbaye, she has now come placed in 4 group 1s. Then PELECACCI gets done by a short head in the Foret Will I ever get a group 1?!?!?!

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
A 2nd (R2) and 3rd (R5). I have to be happy with this because my horses aren't that good! Working on that for next league.

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
My highlights were Double Dragon's 4th in the 0-90, expect more from him. Flight Of The Gypsies close up 8th in the Arc proving now to be the best 1m4f horse I've ever trained. Iron Mike hit the placings again with a 3rd to go with 2 previous wins and Zip line with 4 top 5 finishes in a row and has impressed. Very little chance of many winners coming up soon but I would love to take another handicap or two, wouldn't suprise me if Careless Whisper can bounce back.

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
Sakhir (17th) - No chance at G1 level King Louie (9th) - Slightly better this week Playmate (7th) - Not a bad run in listed company Night Nurse (9th) - Second last, just an awful horse Zaynaat (2nd) - Another good run, maybe a win around the corner? Anouchka Cherie (8th) - Slightly disappointing, though he would be more competitive
Another place today keeps the yard open
Thanks to the team

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
R2 Ghasabah 5th - Disappointed with that run so glad it's the end of the season, she will never run again R3 Iftaar 4th - Ran well enough in the money so ok (Paul u was robbed u won that race) R4 Champion Stakes - Maraffi 1st - Great run held on, 2 G1's in her last 3 runs great R5 Tawaafur 5th - I knew it would be a furlong to far for her but happy with that R7 Istintaj 1st - Ran in all top class races this season finally got his group race even if it only was a G3 (Well done son)
Well done to the winners & placers Thanks for running the races

 Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
Zaynaat (3rd) - Probably held up for too long Rouen (9th) - Was never going to be good enough Monsanto (11th) - Bitterly disappointing off bottom weight Table One (9th) - Too high a handicap mark now
A few disappointments today
Thanks to the team for running the races
