Robert Havlin rightly praised Sweet William’s owners for their loyalty. Today there’s another example, with Sparks Fly’s trainer David Loughnane and owner David Lowe sticking with the out of fashion Laura Pearson in Group 1 at Leopardstown.

Never forgotten.

A mention to the very special Roy Rocket who was quite the celeb at Brighton! He raced 31 times at the course - 9 times he won, twice he was 2nd & 6 times he was 3rd🤩 He meant an awful lot to his Owners & the @JohnWathenBerry team & is still frequently talked about at Brighton

Trump is a disaster. Putin runs rings round him - not difficult.


A familiar occurrence at Chester races. Three non-runners in the 12 runner 6f race - drawn 12, 11 and 9.


The usual at Chester - two non-runners in 6f race drawn 10 and 11 in 11 runner race. Non-runner in 7f race drawn 10 of 10.


No mention of Royal Ascot in today’s Observer. Horseracing may struggle for space in the print media but to ignore Ascot completely!!


Jason Hart has been making hay away from Royal Ascot but such a good jockey should be there. Next year hopefully.


Sure enough, 2.10 Chester over 5f. Field of 13 now down to 8. Non-runners stalls 13,12,11,10,9. Coincidence?


In sprint races at Chester, always interesting to see the stall numbers of non-runners.


I’m a Labour supporter but Keir Starmer’s relentless avoidance of answering the questions at PM’s question time yesterday was disheartening and shameful.

In one race today there is a 38 year difference between the ages of two jockeys. They are?


So depressing to see Putin run rings around Trump.

Had the terrifying reality this evening of one of my photos being posted on someone’s Instagram that’s been screenshotted from my website and put through a watermark removal service. Have some respect for photographers 🤬 things like this shouldn’t exist.
