What did you think of VAUBANS performance last week Stodge ? Hell of a training masterclass from Waterhouse/Bott to get a previous Melbourne Cup /hurdler to win a race that short. Splits were interesting - 600-400 11.09, 400-200 11.01, last 200 11.20, LAST 600 33.3 ! Doubt even Willie Mullins could believe that ! Next start clash with Dubai Honour or Desert Hero ( maybe Tancred or QE ) will be very interesting.

A quiet week up here and just a couple of snippets of news. The dry late winter and early spring has meant Aintree has begun watering in advance of the Grand National meeting in a fortnight. The aim is to ensure Good to Soft ground for the meeting. Speaking of the National, quite a few scratching at yesterday’s forfeit stage including, not surprisingly, Gold Cup winner INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN but JP McManus retains a strong hand as does Gavin Cromwell. New favourite is INTENSE RAFFLES at 7/1 who won last year’s Irish National and ran a decent second last time over 5200m at Fairyhouse. Quicker ground is a concern with all his Irish form on soft or heavy turf. Last year’s winner I AM MAXIMUS has to carry 6 lbs more and was beaten about the same distance by GALOPIN DES CHAMPS in the 2025 Irish Gold Cup as in the 2024 renewal. IROKO looks the best of the British at 8s and he was only four lengths behind INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN in the 2024 Mildmay Chase at Aintree. The ground should be fine but his jumping has been a concern though the Aintree fences aren’t perhaps the factor they once were. Others well fancied are Cheltenham winner STUMPTOWN and the winner of the big handicap at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting PERCIVAL LEGALLOIS.

The Michael McCarthy trainee heads east after two on-the-board finishes at Santa Anita Park. This will be just his third start out of 13 away from California. Lord Bullingdon has improved his finishing position in each of his last three races.View the full article

Yes have noticed the changing divs when the race is on, seems odd when those divs are unachievable, should be better with the tech available these days, all a bit of a have I reckon

Maybe he had a serious gambling problem many do 

Going to Waller I believe.

Yes there are parents out there who are negligent, but all kids should be given a chance in life. The fact remains that Seymour is all mouth, and he has fucked up the whole school lunch system.  

Pivotal Ten is also likely to be sent to be trained in Melbourne. There's been a big exodus of talented 3yos to Australia this season.
