International runners pointed to the BC
 

Viva Pataca (Turf) edit - He's out

Possible.....

Benbaun (Sprint)
Able One (Mile)

Duke of Marmalade to the BC Turf.....

I'm glad Viva isn't going there now, that long trip might have really messed him up for the big races in Hong Kong in the next six months.

Benbaun to Hong Kong instead.....

Dylan to the BC Turf for his swansong.:)

and i doubt he's gonna be scared of English Channel :rolleyes:

the only thing i fear is that the Arc winner has everything to lose in this race.. The trip and ground should be perfect (hes only lost the Derby by 2heads over 12f!) but still..

dont start your nonsense...:p

Nonsense. I speak nothing but the truth, guv'ner :p I have just got off the telephone to English Channel who is in tears about the news he will have to face Dylan Thomas :D

Haha, Dylan is probably laughing right now.

I thought you'd like to see what a winner looks like as opposed to a winner who beat a nothing field. :p

A winner with a cheating bastard riding him

No dear, Jerry Bailey wasn't up... :p

River Proud possible.....

I read that. I'd be surprised if he did, to be honest. We shall see.

he'd win it if he goes..

I was waiting for you to jump on this about EC. We can have a little private wager if you like Kev :rolleyes:

I'm thrilled that Dylan is coming over -- or at least is supposed to.

I needed a single in the late pick-4.

That horse is heads and shoulders above anything else that we've got to send out there. Even with English Channel and the way he loves Monouth (which should be good enough to hit the board) -- if Dylan Thomas runs his race, nobody is going to beat him at 12f here.

He's a big, scopey horse. I don't think he's appreciate really firm ground, like they have in America.

He has also shown he is a bit of a nervous fella. Not sure sending him to America at two would be the best thing to happen with him.

hes a G1 horse in my eyes... he done most of his racing on good to firm and I think he'll be fine.. I do agree that he is more of a 3yo, but going to America isnt always the end. He hasnt really had a long hard season..
