Into The Dark...... well, somedays he can run REALLY fast....... TOO fast and then gets tired before half way Other days, he can just be very lazy and not want to do anything. So it's the days when he is inbetween those moods that he does well

I imagine Caradak will be having a break now, but i don't know for sure.

They were talking about the QEII for Caradak..... you think that's still an option or do they send Echo or Blue boy instead?

I'm hearing some really positive things about Bold Glance who runs on Thursday.

C'mon, Make Aussie Rules proud.

[NoChanceToDance]

The QEII is usually a very good race, i wouldn't like to say who they will send there, but they seem to like having a runner in the race.

I hope Echo would run there really.

Bold Glance, i've heard of him. I think i might have even put him in one of my seven star stables. I will ask, if i can.

[NoChanceToDance]

Well, i don't think much is expected of Bold Glance tomorrow. He runs in a very weak maiden at Pontefract and Frankie deserts him to ride another Godolphin horse, who himself doesn't look very good (but probably good enough to win this weak race).

Interesting. If they thought he was any good at all, Frankie would be up.

Astromonia will be retired after this race.

Bringing her back fast... hope she goes out a winner.

I think they'll send Afrashad here and hold off on Council Member.

What do you all think?

Wonder if they're still gonna send CM to the Vosburgh with Discreet Kitty. That was the plan.....

Happy retirement to Astronomia who won today like the good girl she is.

If they send Ramonti there where does it leave Caradak... the BC?

They have probably forgotten about Caradak.

He wouldn't be good enough for the BC, anyway.

[brockguy]

as good as Ramonti has been, I cant see him being quick enough for the Mile so Cadarak wouldnt cut much ice, but then again I dont even know if Ramonti is BC nominated..they might have to rely on DCat for some BC silverware.

Remember the good old days when Godolphin had the likes of Fantastic Light and Sakhee to go to war with?

Back in the days when they knew how to train a smaller number of horses and Crisford kept his nose out, you mean

I know that's what you were hinting at, Brock

nice one! looks like what you heard was good information.

[my miss storm cat]

Just a reminder, the final swap window for the 7 Stars opens on Monday (... and yes i WILL keep Caradak active thank you very much).

He'll win a good one this year..... there's still time.

Thanks for the heads up.......... i wouldn't have thought they would have come around so soon, so i probably would have forgotten.

No chance of me winning it anyway. Unless all my horses decide to win every Gr1 race laft in the season. (and judging by some of the dark horses/dogs i have picked, i can't see that happening)

[NoChanceToDance]

Just looked at my stables...........

I put Bold Glance in my "Mother's" stable...... since when has Salsa Verdi been out of training???

All I need is for Caradak to win a few G1's and I'm set.....

Leo entered this weekend and happy retirement to Astronomia who went out a winner!

I've got 144 points in my main stable. The other two aren't doing so well, though...... 60 and 30 points only.

Desert Authority will bag me some points tomorrow.
