Tattersalls Gold Cup

[brockguy]

This Sunday at The Curragh. If Youmzain and Dylan Thomas go, It should be a right humdinger of a race.. IMO, they'll be the two best middle distance horses in Europe this season so should be fascinating..

Plus Finscéal Beo will be running in the Irish 1000 on Sunday too.. I really really want to go.

Maybe meaningless this early, but still fun to look at.....

I like Youmzain, really seems to be at the top of his game right now.

Does Financial B.O. run every other week?

Finscéal's schedule..
6 May English Guineas.. WON
13 May French Guineas.. nabbed on the line!
27 May Irish Guineas and Probably then
22 June Coranation Stakes at Royal Ascot..

Her trainers motto is if they are fit, run...

[NoChanceToDance]

If Dylan turns up for the gig, i would be surprised to see him get beaten. It does look a good race though with Youmzain (who was the eyectcher in Dubai) and Sixties Icon, and not forgetting the BC winner, Red Rocks!! This should be a very good race.

I think Finsceal Deserves a break, come on Bolger, give her a break until Royal Ascot, she does deserve it......... Going for the Irish Guineas, too would just be greedy

[brockguy]

I think she'll win the Irish Guineas easily, as long as the ground stays good.. my schedule might be a bit off at the bottom becuase they always wanted to up her to 10f for the Pretty Polly which is held on the 30th.. only 8 days rest and a possible match up with Alexandrova?? I wouldnt fancy her chances there..

With regard to this weekend, are Red Rocks and Sixties coming over or are they going to wait for Epsom a few days later?? I assumed that they werent coming over.. I hold Youmzain in very high regard and see him as big King George contender this summer..

I really don't know what they will be doing to be honest. Because both races are so close together and pretty similar in stature i think decisions are made a close to the time as possible.

Maybe you are right.

Which race is Dylan's favourite next outing?
