There might be some truth in them wanting Mark Johnston, but I can't imagine there being any truth in them getting him. I mean, why would he? Why would anyone?

Anyone who goes there to train get told what to do by people who have no idea how to train a racehorse.

Frankie switches sides...

... so who gets the Truly Royal mount (Haydock on Saturday)?

I don't think it's right that Frankie should be riding for the English team, especially as he's ridden for the european team in the past.

They won't be winning though. It will be interesting to see how well Baze gets on over here.

Hey who else is on the Rest of the World team?

Take and Ricardo (sp?) the guy that has ridden the most winners in the world right now.
