Its been a bit since we've seen him and a few juveniles have been impressive in the meantime like Winker Watson and Rio de la Plata (and I like River Proud alot!) but Henry is scheduled for the first juvenile G1 in Europe this sunday in the Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh. Fallon will be on board for this first time...No real strong opposition is lining up, the useful filly Elletelle will be there with maybe some more O'Brien horses.. O'Brien has won 8 of the last 9 Phoenix Stakes!

You spoke about River Proud. I was at Newmarket when he was just denied that nice win, and i noticed before the race he had a fresh cut just below his left eye. I'm not saying that stopped him for winning, but he must have felt that during the race.

With the warm, dry weather we've had over the last few days, this one did slightly worry me (not enough to back him to win, though
). I think the ride Johnny gave him made all the difference, too. Timed to perfection.
