What a great weekend for Marco Botti!
First with Jakkalberry (who I natrually didn't have as I've lost on him a few too many times in the past
) (oh... the plan is to go back to the UK and fly out to Melbourne on Sept. 29th) and today with Joshua Tree winning the Prix Kergorlay (Deauville).
I know this is blasphemy but I really do hope that Planteur runs (come on, rain!) and wins on Wednesday at York.

For anyone not following closely no... Excelebration is thankfully not in the field as he finally got to run (and win!) a race sans Frankel (the G1 Jacques le Marois at Deauville about a week ago).
Here's Planteur winning the G1 Prix Ganay (people who don't follow intl racing will know most of these names
)...

Anyway applause and wishes of continued luck to Mr. Botti and here's hoping Frankel gets a nice look at Planteurs butt on Wednesday (not a popular opinion, I know).
