Well the Breeder’s Cup was a bit of a disaster all round for the European horses, and what with that and the atrocious ground it was a bit of a disappointment I felt.

I did say that Dig Deep was hard tp predict and proved myself right by failing miserably to predict his win at 15/2 this afternoon. I suppose one of the key points was that he was running off 79 today, while his 2 wins earlier in the season were off ...
