Bordered in Grey, running on Sunday is running in a merit rated 74 race. His merit is 78 though

Worried about the Battle Hammer form, anyone see where it finished, I remember seeing a comment it would beat Innate Quality !!!!!

Didn't run well, but atleast I tip 7/10 shots and get excited when they win.

I think you could've got better earlier, but as they say a 7/10 winner is always better than a 33/1 loser. Also chuffed after reading all the crap about it being too short a price, right bend etc . I'm sure Gregbucks will explain to you.

i have alot riding on number one but worried about that formline

Oh well, time to look at tomorrow's books - more like a double whammy:D

Like your Met winner?

Unfortunely the jock took the horse to the outside rail like Bling with Royal Colours where the going was dead.

I would rather look for value, they lose more often than not but great fun when you catch one. (tu)

Gregbucks assessment CORRECT .... poor odds with too many unknowns. Rather stay out . So it won, big deal.

See Warren Lenferna tipped Double Clutch in the Dail News as 1st choice...must have known something...trainer was surprised.
