That's the fella.

I tink he's a grand horse (you see what I did there? )

I just think he is the finished article. He has plenty of speed but has the stamina to win over further. He goes on good ground, and he goes on heavy. I think a really strongly run race over a stiff two miles will be ideal for him, and the champion is the first race that comes to mind.

Both Harchi and Jazz Messenger have slight question marks against them, but I don't really see any with Aitmatov. I suppose his class might be questionable, but I think he's pretty close to top class and still looks to be on the upgrade.

There are my pics from Kempton Park. Sorry they aren't great, but I was so excited to be there and take in the whole expirence, that taking photos wasn't #1 on my list. Kauto Star is amazing!!! However, Straw Bear stole my heart as his win was the most exciting of the day, and made me enough money to upgrade my holiday a bit!

It was amazing and I can't wait to go back to see more racing over there. I will write more about my expirences over there, but work is kicking my behind after being away for a while.

Thanks to everyone for their tips! Hope you enjoy the pics.
