Indeed you were, and i was referring about the guys over here.

I respect Mettee. He gets told which horses are coming over for him to train, he doesn't get to decide and he gets the job done.

I'm happy for Palace Episode, he was another horse i liked when he was trained by Kevin Ryan and then he seemed to disappear off the face of the earth.

Did they all win on the turf??

Going back to Echo Of Light........ after he did what he did at Windsor i remember a bookmaking firm (skybet, i think) made an advert from that clip when he went the wrong way. There was a voice over commentary with some irish guy saying "well...... what if he's right and everyone else is wrong" So funny!

Boy, that was close!

He was wearing the cheek pieces, maybe they stopped him from getting scared

It's a reeally nice field and he could very well need one back.

I'm thinking maggie wins and PI shows how goooooood he is.

The Celebration Mile though? That belongs to Caradak.

I think Maggie's run all depends how much rain we get overnight. Her camp will be praying for no more rain, as she really likes fast ground.

Per Incanto is an interesting horse without a doubt, but (although i don't know much about the Italian form) it looks like he could be a much better sprinter than a seven furlong horse.

I think Red Evie will bounce back tomorrow, she will be least inconvenienced by whatever happens with the weather.
