I hate to say it, but he's becoming a bit of a rogue now. Couldn't believe people were falling over themselves to back him at odds on, to me that was silly.

There will be arguments that Soumillon gave him too much to do, but it seems all of the jockeys are doing that on this horse. So maybe now we have to look at the horse rather than the jocks.

Hughesy seemed to get on with him the best, and the way he's riding this year, he should be given another chance on him and maybe the horse will respond.

Love him but I don't know why anyone would play him to win. 2nd and 3rd spot only.

The lead of the piece on Sporting Life...

Connections of Youmzain were left scratching their heads...

How many times have we seen that one now?

Gotta love him. Sometimes the best ones are 2nd and 3rd...

You're not the only female I've spoken to who think the best boys come second.

I have to admit backing him yesterday at 6-4, but had a saver on Spanish Moon. He is going to be a lovely horse this year (not in the UK though!)
