Results after Day 2
Firstly, I have fixed No Chances score from Day 1. It should now read as +240.75 rather than +163.75. Some more good performances today from the pacesetters, it should set up to be a brilliant last few days. And remember, a big exacta can shoot you to the moon so there are no lost causes.. Position / Name / Score Today / Total Score 1. Bigs +490 +1773.67 2. Viscount +337.5 +1479.58 3. No Chance +474.5 +715.25 4. Irish -62.5 -39.17 5. ARyan 0 -301.67 6. Stickhorse -450 -716.67

Awful day for many of us, but not Bigs!
Still not got any idea what Johnny Murtagh was doing keeping with that insane pace in the hampton court. Freemantle had no chance keeping with that pace. Look where Big Bound finished after making that stupid early pace! Radiohead very impressive considering what happened in the Norfolk. How far would he have won with a clear run????

From now on it's a case of throwing caution to the wind trying to win this. I'm taking on Aegean tomorrow, at 15/8 I just cannot have her. Ward is saying she is the best thing since sliced bread, but fact is, she is taking on fillies proven at this trip and if she is ridden with the same tactics as the others, she will be swallowed up in the final furlong.
Here goes nothing 2.30 Albany (Gr3) Chachamaidee (alt She's A Character), Lillie Langtry (alt Above Limits) 3.05 King Edward VII (Gr2) South Easter (alt Black Bear Island), Father Time (alt Native Ruler) 3.45 Coronation (Gr1) Elusive Wave (alt Again), Ghanaati (alt Heart Shaped) 4.20 Wolferton Handicap Perfect Stride (alt Stone Of Scone), Halicarnassus (alt Salute Him) 4.55 Queen's Vase (Gr3) Popmurphy (NAP) (alt Stately Home), Dhushan (alt Yankee Doodle) 5.30 Buckingham Palace Handicap Musaalem (alt Seasider), Mutheeb (alt Redford)
