Should definitely be a pa Rob, not sure there will be a p6, will have to wait til World Cup night for that (Cost of playing a p6 will be out of my budget)...

Maybe they should consider a P6 for this Sat. without co-mingling and the cost could then be the normal R1 a line

Great idea, why not email them and suggest it, but don't expect an answer back....<

early fancies.
nocturnal affair(pl)
musir (w)
muthahadee (W)
bold silvano(PL)

I would guess that we would have to see a big improvement from Bold Silvano if it's going to win the BIG one?

Any thoughts on August Rush? Hasn't run since July but doesn't look like a top class field against him.

Bloody hell, I didn't even see he'd gone there. I must upgrade to a stronger brand of coffee if I'm to keep up with things.
