This happens so often and we knew with runner to be on. With the guaranteed odds it made it a very nice bet indeed. Returned 9/2 and we went with a MAX bet. It makes it so frustrating as it proves that the game still has floors. I can guarantee you that Deep South took more money than the other Godolphin runner and yet all around the country the punters would have latched onto the fake favorite at 5/4.

We were all on at 16/1 with ease in the morning. What a great ride by Ryan Moore. Tracked the pace and got to the all important far rail that Youmzain couldnt do.

We knew he was fit and ready after a long break due to injury and he ran a huge race. Just 1 and a half lengths off the winner. Nice e/w bet landed and a nice profit too.</p><p>Then we had Verdant, was in an awful position throughout the whole race and got bumped and hampered. Not the run we were expecting and will run a big race next time without that bad trip.</p><p>We said that Paco Boy was as close to a certainty as you could get in racing and the price at 5/6 was massive. He is a real special horse. I havent seen a Group 1 runner travel so well compared to other runners and basically treated them with contempt. It was a very special performance to win as he did.

Dont be fooled by the small margin of victory. Her run went about as badly as you could have imagined and not the best ride Ive seen. However Aviate was a nice price on the off at 11/4 and she would have won by 5 lengths given a better passage. She was stuck behind runners on the rail and had no where to go. Only by luck did a small gap open and she literally barged her way through it proving she is a fighter and that she stayed the trip. She also made up ground in the last furlong like a real class horse. We told you 20/1 for the Oaks would be a big price after the race and she was instantly cut to 8/1 and is now 6/1 in places. Connections think she will go off favorite. I know some of you took the 20/1 and you will get a very big run for your money at the beginning of June.</p><p>Frustrating runs yesterday from Forte Dei Marmi and Summerinthecity. Both looking to be cruising at the furlong pole and it really did look like a matter of how far, but both got unbalanced and didnt finish off their races. Very frustrating after travelling so well.</p><p>Cocktail Charlie was unlucky. Hit the front inside the distance and got nailed right on the line into second.
