Need to catch up on last night (finally!).
Is Zipping okay? Wow I'm glad I wasn't watching.
Thrilled for Monaco Consul! There will never be another Xcellent but very happy and hope he contines to shine for his connectins (waving NZ flag too).
VERY upset about Efficient and Zipping! Ugh.
Where is Mourilyan????? Have always been a fan, thought he drew barrier 14. Am I crazy? A nice horse who wins when he damned well feels like it! (No, really).
My special good luck list...
C'est la Guerre (no I'll never learn), Gallions Reach
(I know, I know). (edit - am just wishing them luck, not my picks!)
If Mourilyan is out? Daffodil with Warringah and Newport underneath. ***

(Anyone care to explain the Freedman / scum comments for those of us who wanna know? Thanks!)
