    If you don't have your horses cherry ripe for classics you ain't going to be winning too many of them. Some of O'Brien's talk recently has been quite baffling.
    Are we to believe he has been using the guineas as prep runs for what is to come later in the season? That's pretty much what he is saying thus far and as we know it's classics that matter to "the lads". Breeders Cups, Dubai and Hong Kong are nice but they really aren't that important in the grand scheme of things.

      Absolutely, I find the excuse for O'Brien's horse not being "cherry ripe" a little hard to take, considering that these races have always been there at those times of the year, the season still basically ends at the Breeders Cup and restarts afterwards, these hongkong and Dubai aren't as important to breeders as the European races.

    Why are there so many ads during this show? Also, I like DJ, but could he please pronounce "Derby" properly? It's pronounced "Darby", not "Derbee".

    Its just a fact the classics are nowhere near as important these days. Thats actually good as more horses running later in season and as older horses. They will go on tv saying otherwise but fact remains look at stud fees. Long gone are the days when won the Derby and be worth too much. Winning Top all aged 8-10f races now thats what instantly makes a stallion. Sad in a way for Derbies etc but they are restricted 3yold races that are often quite poor.
    Even had a 7 YEAR OLD Epsom Derby Winner running last weekend in Australia and by the way he is now a GELDING
    Serpentine.

      I'm not sure yet if it will work out as bad as the 2020 Derby which to me was the worst. It's unfortunate that some promising horses won't be taking part for various reasons.

      Is it a terrible derby? The race comes so early in the calendar that I think it's difficult to call it already a terrible race. The future really decides that question.

    Do you people never leave your bubble. Pay at the gate and speak to punters. The ones that are proper racegoers. They are killing racing and you are all complicit. We'll give this a try and that a try when the answers are blindingly obvious.
