2000 and 1000 Guineas

So Coolmore won both! Good luck to them in some ways, but wouldn't have been nice if one of the two hundred to one shots, Rebel Rebel and Kandidate, had won the 2000 Guineas on Saturday. Or perhaps if the horse bred by Louise Parry, Saoire, had been placed.

Interestingly, I would suspect that John Magnier and his friends, are very bouyant and happy. What does this mean to how they will act over Manchester United? Will they decide to take Glazer's shilling or will they feel that his bid is in trouble and decide to sit tight, so they can get his shares at a knockdown price?

I don't know! But I certainly wouldn't play poker with any of them!
